Wow what a sight for sore weary eyes. These sprues were worth all the wait, they are gorgeous!!

Both the new Catapharctii and Contemptor models look just like their Forge World cousins, and can you believe the weapon options they’re including here?

It appears the Catapharctii can have a choice of Power Fists, Chainfists or Lightning Claws with the sergeant having the normal power sword. The kit also includes a Heavy Flamer as well.

The Contemptor model’s arms have been said to be interchangeable with Forge World’s as well. From the looks of these sprues I can believe it! I’d even wager Contemptor Kheres Assault Cannons will be a top 10 seller for them soon as well because folks will want an extra one for the left arm!

All this is coming your way on November 14!
