Finecast eldar piece list?

Post by undyingbishop »

I keep running into.this topic on other forums, and it always ends with fifteen morons hijacking it to.complain about finecast, or morons answering with suppositions. What I need is a concrete list-what comes with the finecast autarch, and does it include a banshee mask and warp jump generator. That's all I need to know, I'm not interested in the casting process, or why its inferior, nor am I.interested in complaints about resin, or guesses as to what's included.The ideal person to answer would he someone who actually owns The kit. Please help me out, and thank you.in advance.

YouTube doesn't work properly on my phone, which is where I do .my computer work from. Nor do I feel like sitting through five minutes of drivel to make sure I've seen everything. Thanks for answering my question though.

Yep, I personally hate 90%+ of informational videos, which mostly seem to be "I'm too lazy to take representative pics and write coherently, so I'll just film myself and ramble" videos, but that's the wave of the future :/

From GW's website:
This pack contains an Eldar Autarch with Power Weapon - a finely detailed resin cast kit that comes in six components (including variant weapon arms and backpacks) and is supplied with a 25mm round base. This miniature is supplied unpainted and requires assembly - we recommend using Citadel Super Glue and Citadel Paints.
So, we've got 6 components. Let's see what we can put together from a Google image search.
1) Winged backpack

Next, we have:
2) Sword
3) Helmeted Head
4) Torso with legs
5) Big Gun

We know from the standard image on the GW site that he's got
6) an alternate right arm
Image

So, I'm gonna go with "no." It doesn't have the mask or Jump Generator. In fact, it doesn't even come with everything promised (no alternate backpack).

Well, according to GW's site it does. What I was able to find online, though, seemed to indicate otherwise.

The good news is that, once it arrives, you'll be able to give us a definitive list!

That I've seen, banshee masks only come on banshee models. So, you might need to do a head swap for that. Same thing for Jump Generators. I've only ever seen them on the appropriate models (name slips me ATM), barring a parts swap.

When I bought the LE Pewter Autarch it came with a Jump Generator. Only dif it had a symbol on it while the Warp Spiders bit is clean and round. Unknown if the Finecrap has one.

After zooming more closely at the winged exarch model, I noticed something....those grills on the front and sides of the mask seem identical to the banshee one. Anyone else see it, or is it my phones screen playing tricks on me?

Ok got the model in today. It is 3 spree's . Though the extra backpack they talk about is the flags. Will post pictures later on.

1 sheet is the wings

1 sheet is the model + flag back ( the model's head is already glowed looks like a banshee though )

1 sheet is power sword, pistol, and heavy weapon.

So no dice on the jetpack

There are 2 Autarch models and they split the available options between them. One has the Mandiblaster helmet molded on, the other one has the Banshee helmet molded on. The Mandiblaster one comes with the Jump Generator, the Banshee one comes with the wings. Both come with the flag backpack. If you want a 'plain' helmet, you have to file down one of the other two.
