| I bought this years ago I think in 2006! Now that I am putting it together! Errrrrrrrrrrrrr, I had trouble getting the figs off of the Sprues I used my cutters and my knifes, useually I just use my knife! I never had problems like this before!!!!! Plus the seem lines are really bad! All in all I am not happy! Cheap cheap cheap, for the money you pay for it! Like I said I never had trouble with games workshop figs before! Sorry for the rant I also bought the command squad box set! The plastic banner is blank, what? Am I supposed to paint the banner by hand, I am not an artist!!! I know they did this so you can use them for any Space Marine Chapter! Maybe if I scan the Banner from the Space Marine Codex and cut it to fit, I do not know! Any suggestions! | |

| Yes, the AoBR set is super basic, single pose Marines. The trade-off is that you get lots of them and a Dreadnought... and ORKS! Yes! The mold lines (on my XP) were not too bad (no more than usual).
The Banner is blank. The easiest thing is to do as you suggest. It is a shame. I think it should and some with some kind of 'generic' engraving. | |

| Do vehicles still come with large decals?
A plain colour or quartered pattern banner with some decals on it should look okay. | |

| This guy was saying on a vid I was watching yesterday, that if you bought every thing seperately you would pay like $160.00 for all rhe stuff in the Black Reach set! As for the Blank Banner! I will look a the vehicle transfers? I just wish that they would make transfers for this, years ago the made stickers for squad leaders, captains, termies and librarians! I will look on ebay for them! | |

| I quite like the black reach models myself. The ones I have don't seem to have too many mould lines. I especially like the dread, terminators, and nobs. | |

| Thanks Mr. dr!zzt! I will post pic of them later! But I wish I would of taken pics of there deformities! I think I just got a bad batch, but I will make them work! I do not know what to do with the Orks, same as when I bought the first 40k box set I painted Orks, but they are my first time painting along with the Space Marines but the Orks are still in the box! I gave the Space Marines a new coat of paint! I think it was the First 40k box set with Space Marines and Orks? I could be wrong!!! | |
