Deimos Pattern Damocles Command Rhino Upgrade Kit
One of the vehicles that are available for pre-order is the Deimos Pattern Damocles Command Rhino Upgrade Kit. This kit allows you to upgrade a plastic Deimos Pattern Rhino into a Damocles Command Rhino, a specialized transport for leaders of the Legiones Astartes.
The Damocles sports detailed communication systems, including a command vox unit, a geo-locator beacon, and a command vox relay dish with an antenna, which can be assembled without glue, allowing you to adjust the positioning during battle.
These resin upgrades have no specific Legion markings, so they can be used with any Legiones Astartes army.
Javelin Land Speeder
Another vehicle that is available for pre-order is the Javelin Land Speeder, which is a powerful attack speeder fielded by the Legiones Astartes. The Javelin is propelled by its powerful rear-facing thrusters, guided by the sensor spine on its undercarriage, and crewed by two Space Marines – one pilot and one gunner firing a mounted heavy bolter.
The Javelin’s crew, hull, and sponson-mounted cyclone missile launcher are all resin, and it also comes with a variety of plastic sponson weapons, allowing you to replace the cyclone missile launcher with a pair of heavy bolters, lascannons, or volkite culverins.
The sponsons can be assembled without glue, allowing you to adjust their positioning mid-battle. This kit comprises 36 resin components and 44 plastic components, and it is supplied unpainted and requires assembly.
Legion Arquitor
The Legion Arquitor is a heavy artillery platform designed to operate at the forefront of a Legiones Astartes advance. Three different Arquitor Bombard kits are available for pre-order.
The first one is the Arquitor Bombard with Graviton-Charge Cannon, which fires energized canisters that impact among the enemy ranks, emitting a graviton field that disrupts the advance of anything that survives the barrage.
The second one is the Arquitor Bombard with Spicula Rocket System, which fires rippling salvos of unguided missiles that crash down on enemy positions, creating massive cumulative blasts that can scatter whole formations.
The third one is the Arquitor Bombard with Morbus Heavy Bombard, which is equipped with a reinforced chassis and brutal short-range firepower, making it ideal for breaking the most stubborn of fortifications or annihilating massed enemy infantry and armor.
All of these kits come with a variety of plastic sponson weapons, allowing you to replace the autocannons with heavy bolters, lascannons, heavy flamers, or volkite culverins.
Both the primary weapon and sponsons can be assembled without glue, allowing you to adjust their positioning mid-battle.
The Mastodon Super-Heavy Assault Transport
One of the standout vehicles in this release is the Mastodon, a behemoth transport tank that can carry up to 40 Space Marines and all their equipment into the heat of battle. Its heavily armored chassis and deadly weaponry make it an essential addition to any loyalist army.
The Mastodon is a multi-part plastic and resin kit that stands over 8 inches tall and nearly 18 inches long, making it one of the largest models in the Horus Heresy range.
The kit includes a wide range of weaponry, including two quad lascannons, two sponson-mounted laser destroyers, two armored ceramite plating covers, and a deadly Thunderbolt cannon that can sweep aside entire squads of enemy infantry.
Glaive Super-Heavy Special Weapons Tank
The Glaive is a special weapons tank that is equipped with a massive volkite carronade, said to have originated on Mars during the Age of Strife. This thermal weapon can incinerate entire squadrons of enemies with a single shot.
All of these kits are available for pre-order now, and will be shipped out to customers as soon as possible. With their updated plastic components and incredible attention to detail, these Forge World vehicles are a must-have for any collector or player of the Horus Heresy.
Fellblade Super-Heavy Battle Tank
This tank, known as the Fellblade, shares the same Standard Template Construct design as the Baneblade super-heavy tanks. It has been outfitted with advanced weapons and armor systems that are suitable for use by the Legiones Astartes.
The Fellblade is an extremely powerful mainline tank that makes use of numerous technologies that were restored to humanity during the Great Crusade. This includes its chassis, which is made of reinforced metaplas alloy, and its atomantic arc-reactor. Additionally, the tank boasts a potent accelerator cannon and an array of explosive shells.
If you are looking to add some serious firepower to your arsenal, consider the Legion Fellblade kit. This multipart resin and plastic set contains all the parts necessary to build this super-heavy battle tank. The Fellblade is armed to the teeth, with a massive turret-mounted accelerator cannon, a shell-lobbing demolisher cannon, and twin-linked heavy bolters. The kit even comes with a pair of optional Space Marine crew members who can be built into the tank’s hatches as spotters.
The Fellblade’s turret, crew, and hull-mounted weapons are made of resin, while its hull is made of a combination of resin and plastic components. It also features two sponson-mounted lascannon arrays, which can be used to supplement the tank’s primary weapon or to take out weaker armored targets. The turret, hull-mounted weapons, and sponsons can all be assembled without glue, giving you the flexibility to adjust their positioning during battle.
Falchion Super-Heavy Tank Destroyer
For a price of $360, you can get your hands on the Falchion Super-Heavy Tank Destroyer. This tank is constructed using the same Standard Template Construct pattern as the Baneblade super-heavy tanks, and it is equipped with advanced weapons and armor systems that are fitting for use by the Legiones Astartes.
The Falchion is armed with a twinned volcano cannon, which is one of the most powerful vehicle-mounted weapons in the Imperium’s arsenal. This weapon was used during the Great Crusade to bring down even the most gargantuan fortifications, as well as the mighty Titans and super-heavy tanks that dominated the Age of Darkness.
This multipart resin and plastic kit contains all the components needed to assemble one Legion Falchion. This huge tank destroyer is armed with a twin-linked volcano cannon that is mounted at the front of the vehicle.
The tank’s armored hull is covered with power couplings and exhaust vents, which are necessary to support the tremendous energy needs of the weapon.
All of these kits are available for pre-order now, and will be shipped out to customers as soon as possible. With their updated plastic components and incredible attention to detail, these Forge World vehicles are a must-have for any collector or player of the Horus Heresy.
