The Adepta Sororitas Mk I Immolator.
The Mk I was the only exclusive vehicle to the Sisters of Battle when they first appeared in 2nd edition. Eventually we would get a Forge World Upgrade kit for the rhino in 3rd edition allowing Sisters of Battle to take either Heavy Flamers or Multimeltas. Games-workshop would eventually release the 3rd version of the Immolator in a dual kit with a Sisters Rhino, allowing us to take Heavy Flamers, Multimeltas or Heavy bolters.
I have previously stated that the FW variant was my favorite followed closely by the Mk I. Now I have 3 FW Variants for my Sisters and personally I am not a fan of the GW new version or really any of the recent GW Sisters vehicles. Most of my vehicles are FW Variants, they look cooler.
Why the Mk I immolator. then? Something about it soothes the soul. And it will be nice to have as my Command Vehicle.
So far here is the parts breakdown:

-Rhino
-Sisters of Battle upgrade sprue Heavy Flamers

-I consider this optional as I had it laying around and since it is going to be covered up plasticard why not use it.

Hopefully this weekend I will have a model update for everyone.
