via Forge World

Librarian Consul $43

Librarians fought for many years at the forefront of their Legions – cadres of battle-psykers who fused esoteric powers with a Space Marine’s superhuman physique and skill. Many were troubled by the potential danger such adepts represented, and so the latter years of the Great Crusade saw the Edicts of Nikaea ban the psychic arts from the Legiones Astartes entirely. In the desperate and fractured Age of Darkness, many Legion forces have returned to wielding psychic powers once more, heedless of Imperial law.

This multipart resin kit builds one Librarian Consul – a psyker sanctioned by his Legion to employ the power of the warp, whether Loyalist or Traitor. He wields a single-edged force axe, with a bolt pistol holstered at his waist. His MKVI armour features a high collar, distinctive trim, and subtle banding, as well as a flowing cloak swept over one shoulder. A pair of keys dangle from his belt – a symbol of the Librarius – while his power pack is topped with the icon of an Epistolary, proclaiming his experience and rank as a battle-psyker. The kit includes a choice of two different heads – a bare head with a technological diadem, and a beaked MKVI helmet.

This kit comprises 12 resin components and comes with a Citadel 32mm Round Base. This miniature is supplied unpainted and requires assembly – we recommend using Citadel Colour paints.

Imperial Fists: Decurion Sagittar $43

Decurions are specialists within the Legiones Astartes, warriors distinguished by their skill at fighting aboard armoured vehicles. Among the Imperial Fists, Decurions particularly renowned for their marksmanship are known as Sagittars – these legendary tank gunners are masters at picking off the most vulnerable enemy assets, even as their mounts track and destroy more critical targets. Such is their efficacy that Sagittars are dreaded almost as much as the mighty vehicles they crew.

This multipart resin kit allows you to upgrade a variety of vehicles with a Decurion Sagittar – a specialist tank gunner for the Imperial Fists Legion. The Decurion Sagittar mans a powerful Iliastus-pattern assault cannon, which replaces any normal pintle-mounted weapon. He’s clad in power armour decorated by honorifics such as laurel wreaths and the icon of the Sword Brethren, and sports both a bionic arm and bionic eye. He can be built with either a helmet topped by a laurel wreath, or a bare head.

This upgrade kit contains seven resin components, designed to be assembled with the plastic Predator, Sicaran, or Kratos kits, which are sold separately. These components are supplied unpainted and require assembly – we recommend using Citadel Colour paints.

Alpha Legion Contemptor Dreadnought Upgrade Set

Those sealed within the Alpha Legion’s cybernetic Dreadnoughts are as anonymous in death as they were in life, their expertise preserved and identity discarded. The XX Legion favours the use of these powerful walkers in targeted ‘Lernaean’ shock assaults, eliminating the linchpin of an enemy formation and throwing it into disarray.

This upgrade kit customises a Contemptor Dreadnought with an alternative resin head and torso themed around the Alpha Legion. The head features a chained ‘crest’ with a unique mouthguard, while the torso features a pair of intricate trifoil hydras – the icon of Alpharius – as well as a chained and conjoined Alpha and Omega glyph, known as the Æternus. It’s perfect for adding the XX Legion’s signature look to your mighty Contemptor Dreadnoughts.

This upgrade kit contains two resin components designed to be assembled with the plastic Contemptor Dreadnought, which is sold separately. These components are supplied unpainted and require assembly – we recommend using Citadel Colour paints.

Word Bearers Contemptor Dreadnought Upgrade Set $39

Amongst the Word Bearers, those sealed into a Dreadnought shell are known as Annunake – a Colchisian term meaning alternatively ‘Princely Sons’ or ‘Judges of Hell’ – and honoured with the gift of eternal service. These war machines are walking temples to the XVII Legion’s holy mission, leading the charge with immortal fervour.

This upgrade kit customises a Contemptor Dreadnought with an alternative resin head and torso, themed around the Word Bearers Legion. The head features a crown of sculpted flame, representing the fires of Primordial Truth, while the torso is covered in details distinct to the XVII Legion, such as flame-like armour trim, strips of parchment, and countless Colchisian sigils etched and sculpted across its hull. It’s perfect for adding the XVII Legion’s classic look to your mighty Contemptor Dreadnoughts.

This upgrade kit contains two resin components designed to be assembled with the plastic Contemptor Dreadnought, which is sold separately. These components are supplied unpainted and require assembly – we recommend using Citadel Colour paints.

Salamanders Contemptor Dreadnought Upgrade Set $39

The Salamanders regard self-sacrifice as the highest of virtues, and follow the tenets of their Promethean Cult to honour those who are reborn from great hardship and strife. Such traits are found in ample supply amongst the Dreadnoughts of the XVIII Legion, who wade back into the fire that claimed their lives, exhibiting the superior craft in arms and armour that Vulkan’s sons are famed for.

This upgrade kit customises a Contemptor Dreadnought with an alternative resin head and torso, themed around the Salamanders Legion. The kit features the iconography of the XVIII Legion in the form of an ornately sculpted firedrake’s head covered in horns and scales, its fiery breath streaming out across the Dreadnought’s chassis. It’s perfect for adding the XVIII Legion’s signature look to your mighty Contemptor Dreadnoughts.

This upgrade kit contains two resin components designed to be assembled with the plastic Contemptor Dreadnought, which is sold separately. These components are supplied unpainted and require assembly – we recommend using Citadel Colour paints.

Raven Guard Contemptor Dreadnought Upgrade Set $39

 

The Raven Guard employ their Dreadnoughts as powerful, mobile weapons platforms that can manoeuvre where conventional vehicles cannot follow, or else as formidable hunter-killer talons deployed against the mightiest enemies. These careful assignments, combined with the extensive technical skill of the XIX Legion’s artisans, ensure that their combat walkers are amongst the deadliest of all the Legions.

This upgrade kit customises a Contemptor Dreadnought with an alternative resin head and torso, themed around the Raven Guard Legion. The head features Lycaean studs and a wing-like forehead guard, while the torso is covered in distinctive elements such as sculpted wings, the skeletal remains of ravens – known as Corvia – which were hunted by the warrior within as part of his initiation rituals, and Lycaean tribal patterns of seams and studs running across the armour. It’s perfect for adding the XIX Legion’s signature look to your mighty Contemptor Dreadnoughts.

This upgrade kit contains three resin components designed to be assembled with the plastic Contemptor Dreadnought, which is sold separately. These components are supplied unpainted and require assembly – we recommend using Citadel Colour paints.

Ultramarines Contemptor Dreadnought Upgrade Set $39

Those who honour the Ultramarines by fighting through grievous wounds are awarded for their service with a place inside a Dreadnought – a testament to the faultless courage of Guilliman’s sons. Their long battlefield experience preserved in stasis, these esteemed combat walkers form a key part of their company’s operational doctrine.

This upgrade kit customises a Contemptor Dreadnought with an alternative resin head and torso, themed around the Ultramarines Legion. The head boasts a regal laurel wreath and crown-like trim, while the torso features distinctive elements like a resplendent Imperial eagle with sculpted feathers, a decorative halo and collar, and the icon of the Ultramarines surrounded by a laurel wreath. It’s perfect for adding the XIII Legion’s signature look to your mighty Contemptor Dreadnoughts.

This upgrade kit contains 2 resin components designed to be assembled with the plastic Contemptor Dreadnought, which is sold separately. These components are supplied unpainted and require assembly – we recommend using Citadel Colour paints.

Infernus Abomination $43

 

The Cults Abominatio are a dark mirror of the Divisio Assassinorum, aiding the Traitor cause with inhuman operatives created through a fusion of long-forbidden techniques, heretek augmentation, and compacts with corrupting otherworldly powers. The Infernus Abomination is one such creature – a terrifying, shapeshifting killer fuelled by the pain and suffering of its victims. Fragmentary reports from near-insane survivors speak of the Infernus as a shapeless apparition haunting the battlefield, its anatomy dissolving and reforming into new and nightmarish aspects designed specifically for each victim.

This multipart resin kit builds one Infernus Abomination, an engineered monstrosity of the Cults Abominatio. Wrapped in a wraithskin body glove that ripples and shifts as it pushes the host’s warped form beyond normal limits, this mutated operative also wears a technological face mask marked with Chaos iconography. The Infernus Abomination’s transmutative armaments are formed from its very biology, allowing it to sprout unnatural talons, painful spikes, and a boneshard spitter that drips with deadly toxins.

This kit comprises nine resin components, and comes with a Citadel 32mm Round Base. This miniature is supplied unpainted and requires assembly – we recommend using Citadel Colour paints.

Despoiler Squad Upgrade Set  $31

When close-quarter fighting is expected, Legion Tactical squads will be equipped in the ‘Despoiler’ role – a term referring to Tactical Legionaries that forgo the standard bolter in favour of alternative weaponry. Despoiler squads are often armed with bolt pistols and chainswords, offering them increased flexibility during boarding actions or trench warfare. On the battlefield, Despoiler squads engage the enemy line directly, carving a bloody path through entrenched foes, shattering their morale and slaughtering all who do not flee.

This resin upgrade kit allows you to equip your Space Marines with the assault weapons common to Legion Despoiler Squads. The kit includes five arms holding bolt pistols and five wielding chainswords, for standard Despoilers. It also provides an arm carrying a power axe and a pair of arms wielding a two-handed heavy chainsword, for use by specialist fighters or a Despoiler Sergeant. These components are compatible with plastic Legion Tactical Squads in MKIII, MKIV, and MKVI armour, as well as a variety of resin kits in MKV armour.

Includes:
– 5x right-handed chainswords
– 5x left-handed bolt pistols
– 1x right-handed power axe
– 1x two-handed heavy chainsword, with bent arm

This upgrade kit comprises 13 resin components, designed to be assembled with a variety of Space Marines kits which are sold separately. These components are supplied unpainted and require assembly – we recommend using Citadel Colour paints.

Lord-castellan Evander Garrius – The Tyrant of Cthonia $62

A veteran of the Unification Wars, Evander Garrius distinguished himself in the early years of the Great Crusade with a merciless approach to war that earned the praise of Horus himself. When Rogal Dorn was reunited with his Legion, Garrius found himself assigned to garrison duties, far from his Primarch’s side – for despite his unquestioning loyalty, his casual brutality contrasted starkly with the new ideals of the VII Legion. Still determined to prove his worth, Garrius rejoiced when his Primarch called on him to retake Cthonia, vowing that he would be moved from that forsaken world only by the hand of Dorn himself.

This multipart resin kit builds Lord-castellan Evander Garrius – the Tyrant of Cthonia, and Captain of the 456th Company of the Imperial Fists Legion. This brutal warlord is protected by his personal suit of Cataphractii Terminator armour, known as the Tyrant’s Regalia, decorated by a furred cloak and many hard-earned honours. His armour incorporates the Subjugator – a brutal power gauntlet claimed from a tyrant of Old Earth – as well as Incineratus, a unique and radioactive volkite charger. He’s posed atop a scenic base, stepping on the half-melted carcass of an enemy Legionary, and comes with a choice of two heads – a knightly helmet or a bare head.

This kit comprises 13 resin components, and comes with a Citadel 40mm Round Base. This miniature is supplied unpainted and requires assembly – we recommend using Citadel Colour paints.

Vheren Ashurhaddon – Master of the True Sons $56

Born on Cthonia and recruited from the maze of tunnels below the planet’s surface, Vheren Ashurhaddon quickly gained a reputation amongst the Luna Wolves as a skilled fighter. His dedicated zeal, pioneering tactics, and daring assaults earned him both the respect of his brethren and the moniker ‘The First Reaver’. Though as much a Traitor as his fellow Sons of Horus, Ashurhaddon sees no need to sully Cthonian superiority with otherworldly powers – and on the eve of Horus’ invasion of the Sol System, he departed to reconquer Cthonia, secure the XVI Legion’s future, and rekindle its old glory.

This multipart resin kit builds Vheren Ashurhaddon – Master of the True Sons, and Cadre-captain of the Sons of Horus Legion. This embittered raider wields a curved dagger alongside the Axe Serpentis – a Carsoran power axe said to have been crafted by Horus himself from the weapons of slain Cthonian gang lords. A pair of bolt pistols are holstered at his hips, modified to fire armour-piercing banestrike ammunition, and he’s clad in the Panoply of the Void – his personal suit of armour, decorated with the symbols of his Legion and topped by a banner strung with trophy-skulls. He comes with a choice of two heads – a Cthonian war-helm or a bare head, both with a flowing top-knot.

This kit comprises 13 resin components, and comes with a Citadel 32mm Round Base. This miniature is supplied unpainted and requires assembly – we recommend using Citadel Colour paints.
