Wargames Illustrated limited model - extremely poor cast
« on: September 09, 2016, 01:38:19 PM »
Recently, I received this knight as a gift from a friend. He received it when taking out a susbscription but since he did not care about Knights he never bothered to open it. I did and I've think this is by far the worst cast I have seen in ages.



From this side it looks like something you can fix with just some filing and sanding.



This I can't fix. The front part of the moulding is actually smaller then the back end of the moulding. I have no idea how this happend but I do know this should have never left the shop.

I could send Wargames Illustrated a picture of this but my communications in the past have been sketchy ast best, and this was a limited model, I doubt they would still have one. Or should I give it a try anyway?

Not sure if it can be resolved but Wayne is very active with hobby stuff on Facebook if you have it.
