banjobenito 1,393 Posted April 24, 2017 Hello Runies, I'm looking for a source of pennants, lances and such to do some conversions for my armies. Just a few things to break the uniformity of the sculpts really. Can anyone recommend a good place for these, or is it just a matter of buying some Sigmar stuff and chucking most of it away? Ta in advance. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jocke01 920 Posted April 24, 2017 (edited) I don't have a name or link but att my local hobby shop there are some kits that are for converting. Kits with just swords or heads etc Thirds party made to scale with 40k and fantasy. Google might turn something up. Second tips is to check facebook groups. There usually exist some local groups that buy/sell/trade minus and bits. From experience you will have a bunch of unused bits you don't use. So ask around Edited April 24, 2017 by jocke01 1 banjobenito reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
banjobenito 1,393 Posted April 24, 2017 Ta Jocke, appreciated. I'll look around for groups to buy off! Looking for spears, banners and shields for Waiqur, to break up the ranks a little bit. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
drkpnthr 295 Posted April 24, 2017 The major thing with crossing AoS stuff over is going to be a slight difference in scale, and a difference in the materials. There are stores out there that do nothing but sell bits (mostly from older model sets they bought on discount and cut up for the parts like this one http://www.bitzstore.com/en/. I would argue that you can usually get a better deal for these by buying a bulk package or an older badly-painted army on ebay, stripping the paint, and chopping them up for the parts. 1 banjobenito reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CMtheGM 15 Posted April 24, 2017 Mantic undead are cheapppp. Buy a box and you'll have lots of extra bits. A little smaller scale but close enough for the price.... 1 banjobenito reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
eilif 135 Posted April 24, 2017 Ask around at your FLGS. Shouldn't take long to find GW players with loads of bits. Might even get some freebies. Alternatively, post over at Bartertown with what you're looking for. I'm sure some folks will come forward especially if you're looking for common bits. 1 banjobenito reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
shoeshine 8 Posted April 24, 2017 An ebay search for "bitz" can usually find you what you need for a decent price. I ordered a pretty massive collection of AoS stuff the other day for 25 bucks, for instance. 1 banjobenito reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
banjobenito 1,393 Posted April 25, 2017 Found a 'bitz' dealer and got hold of a nice variety of round undead shields, pennants, pikes, banners and blades to sort my skellies out. Thanks for all the advice guys, really appreciated. 1 shoeshine reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
