How many Armorcast Phantoms were produced?
« on: April 22, 2018, 01:22:22 AM »
I just took the plunge and bought an armorcast phantom. It’s a model I have wanted for years, and as I have been looking through google images at pics trying to look at potential paint schemes, I noticed that I’m not seeing very many unique phantoms. I even saw a picture of mine in the possession of the previous owner. It seems as if the production run was fairly small,and I’m wondering how small. Does anyone have any idea how many Armorcast made before they quit doing GW stuff?

Dang thats awesome! I love those old sculpts. Didn't they make a Warlock titan as well? I loved the original Revenant too.

No idea how many they made, but all that stuff is rare. Very cool, that'd definitley have a place of pride in my collection too. Nice grab!

I don't know if it is so much that you aren't finding many pictures online because they are super rare, but more that you aren't finding many pictures online because Armorcast was pre-internet.

Even still... yeah... exceptionally rare lol.
If there is anything that recent politics has taught us, it is that quotes taken out of context can mean what ever you want them to.
Well I always liked the globals...
I knew I had fans!!!

The Warlock version is mainly a different head piece and you'll have to buy it from another company. Weird I know these things about this subject, lol.
