All in all an incredibly simple conversion. I do intend to glue the wheels so that they don't roll. I have the parts necessary to complete a total of 6 buggies. Still debating on whether to base the or not, I'm thinking no.

Hope this helps fill the void of buggies in your army.

If you need some deffkoptas to complete this great conversion pick up a Warhammer 40K Assault on Black Reach Starter Set.
