Codex: Skitarii (Ruststalker Edition) $165
Knowledge Is Power.
This lavish, limited to 900 individually numbered Codex includes within its sumptuous box:
Codex Skitarii – an 80-page, full-colour hardback book containing everything you need to know about the Skitarii – rules, descriptions, background description and colour schemes/iconography for each forge world’s legion;
Thirty-six tactical objective cards;
Six metal tactical objective markers, in a brass finish;
Six Doctrina Imperative cards – special abilities bestowed by the observing Tech-priests;
An envelope containing a double-sided poster – a detailed realisation of Mars on one side, and concept sketches of the Skitarii on the other.
Merciless and pure in their search for data, the Skitarii – soldiers of the Machine God – march without emotion across the galaxy, tearing the secrets of war from the cold, dead hands of their enemies. Armed with the most terrifyingly advanced weaponry the Imperium has ever known, and driven by data imperatives that enhance their abilities to almost supernatural levels, the Skitarii are a post-human nightmare rendered in metal and flesh, collecting and analysing every morsel of information they can in order to fuel their thirst for ever more powerful tools of destruction.
Please note, this limited edition is available in English only.
Adeptus Mechanicus Sicarian Ruststalkers /
Sicarian Infiltrators $46
Initially an elite assassination squad, the Sicarian Ruststalkers proved so effective at the art of killing that they were repurposed as front-line, physics-manipulating commandos. Their transonic weapons hum and resonate with sickening efficiency, passing through the strongest armour as if it simply didn’t exist.
The box contains 5 different, cybernetically augmented gasmask-clad Sicarian Ruststalker heads, covered in sensors and data-gathering devices to further the quest for knowledge. More machine than man now, their bodies are encased in pressurised armour. An impressive array of armament options include two transonic blades each, or a loadout of chordclaw, transonic razor and grenade pack, making a total of twenty-five included weapon parts. Their princeps includes a prehensile dataspike.
This 117-component, multi-part plastic kit contains all the parts necessary to make either five Sicarian Ruststalkers (including one princeps), or five Sicarian Infiltrators, and comes with five 40mm bases.

Sicarian Killclade Web Bundle $184

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 sprung from Rob staying motivated to hobby on his backlog of projects, while sharing his knowledge with others during the early blogging era.
LEGO maniac and scale model hobbyist in the 80s turned 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 pewter and resin.
