I don’t quite understand the conversion bits for the Stormdodo, but the Chimera and the glaives look sweet!
Heard anything about the court case?
I think Chapter house has really pushed up its quality. In my opinion I believe they approach the IP in a more respectful way than just wanting to give GW the finger. We might be looknig at an under the table “Do it but we WILL be watching”
I quite like the stormraven add on, gives it a bit more weight and looks a bit more ‘real’, I think I’d have to get some if I ever need a new toaster
same for me I always hated the tubby and somewhat squat design , always looked like they made that thing on the computer and then simply squeezed it into its form now it looks more like a small Thunderhawk, really like that conversion kit
Slowly getting some decent pieces onto the market. If they survive the GW rapture, I have hopes for them improving their game.
The glaives are an obvious choice for Custodes conversions. I quite like chimera conversion, but all other other bits there are strictly average.
I for one think the chimera parts do look somehow average ^^ the bumper looks a bit like a crash barrier 😀
Not so keen on the bumper, but the wheels remind me of Saracens LAVs, etc, and would probably look better on an Arbites or PDF themed army’s chimeras given that they’d use them on streets more often.
Or you could give one to your inquisitor, paint him/her in N7 armour and call it a Mako.
I’m Inquisitor Shepard and this is my favorite Chimera on the citadel
What was the upgrade on the stormraven? Just looked like they got rid of the turret, moved the other thing back and stuck some bits pf plasticard on it?! More like a downgrade to me… The rest of the stuff is nice though
The Stormraven upgrade extends the passenger compartment so it looks more to scale, like it can really hold all the fluff says it can. It pushes the intake back so you can remove the turret if you want and provides a plug to go in it’s place.
I for one am pleased about the conversion beamer. I sent them a request for this more than a year ago and am happy to see that they saw the need.
Ah yes i see the extension now. In that case it is an upgrade 🙂
only one proplem even if I really like this conversion kit ….it extends the troop compartment right to were the cybot usually would be ^^
*problem
Actually the kit includes an actual grapple to hold the Dreadnought that is attached under the tail area.
A resourceful person could easily magnetize the grapple harness and the dread 🙂

From tracks to wheels is the best convrtion I have seen in a long time. i have yet to see this on the table, even thu it seems like a no brainer.
Thumbs up to Chapterhouse… would love to see BoW do a review of their stuff. I know it can be a little touchy with the legal issues but they have a great group of products. They really can add some character to your armies. I’ve got a number of their items.
Thanks for the support everyone.

These look really nice. I especially like the Techmarine bits.
Hope they’re going to do something about the back-to-front rear wings on the Stormraven though – the flaps should be at the back not the front.
I really wasn’t going to buy another Stormraven until I seen this or another landraider for that matter but those doors are gorgeous and the SR conversion kit would really make it stand out from all the other smaller SRs about here :p.
When are these going up for sale as I can’t find them on the website?
I am waiting for the large stock of kits to come in and I did pre-orders last week. Once those pre-orders are filled I will be adding the Chimera and the Storm Raven kit to the webstore.
The smaller kits like the Death Angel Landraider doors and the Conversion-Beamer and the gun-halberds will be on the site this friday for regular purchase.
