size comparison of new and old KK's
« on: April 25, 2010, 12:52:34 PM »
So I have been pricing and looking around for the new KK box and even Deff Dread box.  Does anyone own both types of models?  Would you say the new Killer Kans are comparable in size to the old model?  Do they fit on same bases?  Would you recommend getting all of one kind or the other?  Same questions for the new Deff Dread.

Thanks.

haven't been able to buy a box of the new Kans yet, but if you look at the pictures on GW's site of them it looks like they've been upped to Monster bases instead of the old medium size base.

Truly beautiful work. That's the kind of stuff that makes a true mekanik cry tears of joy.

on the games workshop site it says they are on 60mm bases so they might be larger

They're the same size as a Marine Dread, and the Deff Dread dwarfs that.

I don't own the old kans.. but the new ones are on the 60mm bases.  They look pretty big..   The deff dread i would say is a lot bigger too.. considering his size is bigger than a dreadnought in height...   

I am going to say since walkers take advantage of  mek with KFF...  then the bigger the better...    Plus the new ones are very cool models..  I have not assembled mine yet.. because I can't choose.. between Rokkits or making a few custom Grotzookas...

They are chunkier, but not really any 'bigger'.  Less spindly and fragile, definately.
