Servius:

both are bit packs… the horus looks to be the base of the mounted orc general… and the emperor the base from an obloterator.

cornixt:

I remember there being something of an Emperor model, but he was sitting down. Neither of those look familiar in those parts

Servius:

after looking closer i noted that they were converted models… The horus was a mix of the Mounted Black orc, a terminator, and a skaven warlord… I went to report him for fraud and it seems someone already did

snowblizz:

Too good to be true I suppose…

It is interesting that for such a high initial price the pics are incredibly shoddy.

But then I guess that was the point.

superfella:

I have a model that starscream gave me a while back, some guys sculpted his own emperor and cast about 250 of them in metal and sold them on ebay and a few other sites for approx £20 inc postage.

i use it as an inquisitor usually, its nice.

i saw one go for £170 on ebay only a few months ago and considered parting with mine, but then saw another one go for less than £30, so decided not to bother!

Godbob and his jolly rogers:

Well the guy selling Horus said that he got them off a guy and now he’s selling them

He might be lying but if he isn’t you can’t blame him

cornixt:

It’s a classic get-out clause. Like on electronics, “I haven’t tested it” means it is broken. The seller knows, but tells you he doesn’t so you can’t complain.
