Re: DO NOT SELL RECAST MODELS ON THIS FORUM
What's the best way to tell if something is recast? I have some really old FW that is a different color resin then my newer stuff.
Thanks!

Re: DO NOT SELL RECAST MODELS ON THIS FORUM
The only way to be sure is if you bought them from FW yourself. Also if someone is willing to take a huge hit in price is a good indicator. I treat anyhing 2nd hand as recast when buying unless I know the person or they can verify the order came FW somehow.
About me:
1. GW retail doesn't equal value if you intend to sell me assembled/stripped/primed/painted items. These all devalue them and anyone can get 20-30% off GW retail NIB.
2. If I take the time to write you please be kind enough to at least tell me no or not interested.
3. Lowest reference ships first

Re: DO NOT SELL RECAST MODELS ON THIS FORUM
Real FW resin tends to be a light grey, and has some flex to it. Recast FW can either be very dark, or be a bright yellow (there are however some very old FW kits that use yellow resin). Recasts are also brittle, and tend to have a very bad smell.
Also the things that Tyrius said about it being really cheap. If something is 90 pounds from FW, and someone else is selling it for $90, it is probably a recast. Too good to be true.

White is also a color you could see from FW. MY Eldar superheavy arrived direct from FW with everything grey except the main part of the turret which was white.
