Ripper swarms

[captainnako]

How do you get ripper swarms without paying like £23 on forgeworld, which don't look like some of the rippers I've seen?

Is there a hidden box on gw or something?

[gigasnail]

you can't buy them alone; they're on infantry unit sprues like genestealers.

[captainnako]

Hmm what about termagaunt?

A box of gaunts contains some Ripper pieces to use on a base. Typically, it takes multiple boxes to get enough to make multiple bases. Auction sites may be better for finding some, but it may be hit-and-miss.

I think they show the sprue contents on the GW site, so you may be able to see them that way.

[gigasnail]

yeah you should be able to go to bits sites and plump up your ripper stash really easily.

Hmm ok sounds good yea cause paying like 40 cad is a bit ridiculous for ripper swarms and only 3

[gigasnail]

the FW models are so effing good though. i'd snap more up if i had the chance.

it's also not too horrible to make a big pile of the normal ones on a single base, either.

How are the forge world models in terms of needing to "unbend" parts or needing to scrap some remaining resin off the models?

[gigasnail]

It's a solid mass of rippers (one piece). You may need to clean them up some, like anything else.

I am not sure they are for sale from FW anymore. There are still plenty floating around (some of dubious origin) if you search.

Thanks for your answer!
They seem to still be on sale on forge world.
I might try some out in the upcoming months.
