I know the majority of these are in use and GW doesnt produce them anymore (BLAST!). My Question is this, does anyone know of a similar model? Perhaps a similar stance or perhaps an "Original" Sculpt that just happens to look VERY similar? I'm not looking to get anyone in trouble for copywrite, just to get my hands on somthing similar for a character i'm working on, so if you'd rarther not say on here that you discretly cast yourself a few copys that you might be willing to let go then messege me in private.

I Know that this isnt a trading forum, so im not really asking if anyone has one, mearly if anyone knows a model currently in production that is similar, and where to buy it from.

How similar do you want him? Similar in what way? There are loads of models out there wearing coats that could be converted to look similar - it all depends how much work you want to put in. Likewise you could find a head that is broadly similar if you shop around. You could also find or make similar weapons.

It's all possible with the right amount of time, money and effort. So it comes back to the question - what is it you're looking for? You could commission someone to sculpt something for you. Or we can help you find parts for a conversion. Or you can keep shopping around for one on eBay. Or you could just find a cool model and convert him to represent a character with attributes similar to what you like about Kal.

On this note, I have been recently considering doing the odd sculpt and cast for beer money (or more likely, "help replace whatever expensive gadget I've wrecked this week money"), and I am rather tempted to do a "Hijacker Lo" model which might just happen to have some completely coincidental resemblance to a certain gunslinger.

Of course, if someone happens to have accidentally dropped a load of Kal parts into some setting silicone, I'll just remark on what a totally bizarre coincidence that is and mull over some other ideas (I quite like the idea of doing models based on the two gentlemen on pg 110 of the RT RPG book)

If I remember correctly, the model came with 2 sets of arms and two or three heads (I had one many moons ago) so you might be able to find those bits more easilly.

Good memory :)

The complete Kal model came with 2 sets of arms, 3 head variants and a choice of weapons ... there's a full listing here http://www.collecting-citadel-miniatures.com/wiki/index.php/Image:Limited_Release_-_Inquisitor_54mm_Kal_Jerico.jpg

Sorry for the link ! If it's illegal remove it :)

I don't see any problem posting that link - members of the 'Clave contributed quite a few of the photos to the Inquisitor section of that site.

the head with the hair blowing to the side looks good on eisenhorns body, brings back memories as my Inquisitor was the first -][- model I built and is essentially just Kals head on eisenhorn.
