Disappointed Warhammer Made To Order

Was hyped for this week’s but noticed Grom the Paunch and Zacharius the Everliving are both metal, not resin 🙁

Were they ever resin?  If they never got re-released in fine art then the only molds they’d have for them would be for metal so that’d be the only casting option to be fair.

Metal is great, because these were never Forgeworld models. That means if it’s not metal or plastic…..it’s “finecast” 🙁

I will take metal over “Finecast” any day thank you very much. I wish I could find metal version of Gabriel Seth to add to my collection. I own only two “Finecast” models (Belial, Master of Deathwing and newer Isabella Von Carstein) as those two models never had metal versions.

I believe they changed from Finecast to a different formula ??, I certainly haven’t had the original finecast problems as before?

I know mental is usually smarter but for a nutty zombie dragon, resin would have been much better 🙁 it will require pinning and stress and I will cry and cry and cry

I do believe that if those metal models had been released in resin it would had been during early “Finecast” rather than when GW got better with resin so my opinion still stands.

i love metal models. pinning isn’t that hard is it? or am i weird?

If I’m not mistaken all Made to Order minis were metal because they were old models that never were done in Finecast, or am I wrong?

Some are metal, some resin and some even have plastic components – like the horses on Settras chariot

I assume these models were out of production when Finecast was underway, or simply never moved to resin. I’m just sad that the larger zombie dragon wasn’t resin as pinning isn’t the easier of jobs and that model looks rather .. difficult …

But it would have been nice of them to release it as a resin model rather than metal.

The GW resin is rubbish man. Your lucky you got them in metal imho.
