These are upgrade bit kits, so you could build entire squads out of them, but more often than not, these will just be perfect conversion bits. If you build them from scratch here, you won’t save much, but you will have an army that stands out. If you want your minis to look a certain way though, these are perfect to hobby on.

The Bits

It makes a perfect little addition for people to grab that isn’t too much money. They also come ready with everything you need ready for retail. Even if you’re buying these for yourself, the packaging is amazing and does really well when shipped.

With them being a single piece as well, makes them so much easier to build and there are almost no mold lines to cut. Again, they are the same price as the plastic kit, but really do look much more specialized.

Built Minis

So even if you can’t afford an entire army of them, just grabbing a few bits to upgrade your army is totally worth it.
