For the sum of £5.49, you get five identical jump packs, each of which comes in three pieces: The main body, and two exhaust vents. Working out at about £1.10 per jump pack, this isn’t too bad for value, and are parts that look a bit different to the norm.
They are suited for 28-33mm models, and are perfect for making Assault Marines, Sanguinary Guard, and Raptors. These packs are on the large side at the lower scale, as demonstrated above: they easily outsize standard GW backpacks, and even bulkier Raptor packs. Despite being so huge they don’t look out of place.
The quality is fantastic, and has improved since I last bought a set. Whilst before there were a few lines and wonky bits, this time around there are no such problems. Either through perfection of the process over time, or better resin, this set is virtually defect-less. Ever detail looks just a little bit more defined and clear-cut.
As some of you know I’m a big fan of this set. The details are fantastic for use in Horus Heresy-era armies, due to their antiquated styling and size. I have previously used them to create a set of Thousand Sons Raptors. I painted the round bolts as gemstones, to create a squad that is unique to this army.
In conclusion, it is easy to say I am a big fan of Maxmini’s jump packs. They appeal to my love of 30k-era gear, the detailing can be easily adapted through painting(painted as gems rather than bolts), are of a quality high enough that they maintain the image of a good model. I rank these amongst my top accessory picks.
