My original Missile pod for the Knight kit was added to my Knight Gallant and painted in green to match is livery. Not my best move as it looks slightly odd when used with any of my blue liveried Knights…
A replacement original Knight part on eBay appears to retail somewhere between £8- £15… So, as it was always likely that I would be looking for a cheaper alternative, I took advice from Coronasan and tried out a missile rack from the GW Taurox transport kit instead. This retails for about £3 on eBay so was a much cheaper option.
The main issue with this part is that it is designed to go under a roof panel and have its lower side up against the model. As I wanted it perched up on a domed carapace a slight adjustment was required.
A couple of wires, and a piece or two of MDF offcut, and any obvious holes were covered. After that it was a case of slotting in a magnet and spraying it blue. Again, its too warm to paint with a brush, so it too will have to sit aside for a few days before I get to finish it off properly…

Looks good. Not being familiar with the range I would not have spotted that this is a non-standard part.

If it fits, size wise, I am not often bothered if the item is not ‘officially’ the right bit…

That looks good to me- though at three quid I’d have been tempted to layer two or three together on to of each other.
Cheers,

🙂 Second rack on order. Will try it out and see what it looks like. May need a 3rd and 4th at this rate 🙂

It really does look the part, although I think Pete’s got a good point about maybe having more than one layer to the launcher rack! Still love that blue!

Looks perfect to me. The layering point is a good one, but it does look bloody good as-is.
