Lupercal, Lupercal! After 25 years, The Warmaster has arrived!
Horus Lupercal, Archtraitor, Warmaster, Favored Son, all of these terms barely scratch the surface of describing one of the most iconic characters of Warhammer 40k.
Now that the first official figure has been released, this larger than life legend shall continue on for a new generation of gamer playing the Horus Heresy table top game.
The model itself is pretty remarkable, with a level of amazing detail all over the figure perhaps unseen in the past. Plus there is a great destroyed stair banister display base to mount the completed figure assembly to.
This figure is the biggest of the primarchs produced so far, easily eclipsing even Ferrus Manus’ girth. Consequently Horus is packaged in the larger double sized Horus Heresy collectors box.
Chaos player or not, this model makes a great display piece for any Warhammer 40k aficionado regardless.
The Kit
Horus is available for 60 pounds (~$99) from Forge World.
Horus the Warmaster, designed by Simon Egan, is an amazingly detailed multi-part resin model armed with the Warmaster’s Talon and the great power maul Worldbreaker and is equipped with the unique suit of Terminator armour known as the Serpent’s Scales. This model stands atop a scenic base depicting a ruined Imperial balustrade and stone staircase and is also provided with a smaller removable base for gaming use. As one of our Character Series models, Horus is supplied in a handsome presentation box. -Courtesy Forge World

Bio: Virginia restless, miniature painter & cat dad. He blames LEGOs for all this, as there was something about those little-colored blocks that started it all. Spikey Bits started with Rob trying to stay motivated to hobby on his backlog of projects and share his knowledge with others during the early blogging era.
Scale model hobbyist in the 80s, miniature wargamer, and trading card player ever since. He’s played every edition of Warhammer 40k and Warhammer Fantasy since 5th Edition, but Titans of all sizes will always be his favorite! It’s even rumored that his hobby vault rivals the Solemnance Galleries, containing rulebooks filled with lore from editions long past, ancient packs of black-bordered Magic Cards, and minatures made of both pewter and resin.
