Want to know more about the new Warbringer Titan model? Don’t miss this deep dive as we break down the secrets to both its design and sales!
The Warbringer Titan is the latest war machine to roll off of Forge World’s assembly line and it’s turning heads and emptying wallets everywhere.
Recently it’s instruction book was spotted on Battle Bunnies and it is quite revealing from a modeling standpoint. Reviewing the exploded view and assemblies give us an idea of how it’s pieced together. Plus some key parts to watch out for, as well as, some ideas on how to make it modular.
Warbringer Titan Instructions Spotted
It’s been advertised by Forge World themselves that this Titan is no job for a beginner. With over 111 unique parts, this Titan is serious resin business!
Looking at the legs, they seem pretty in-line with the build for a Reaver. Nothing too spectacular here.
Moving onto the upper legs and waist of the Warbringer, you can definitely see the similarities from the Questoris-Class Knight (and the Reaver) models. However, this kit sprinkles a few more plates and cogs into the bunch. Make sure you dry-fit the pieces twice and glue once!
Another good idea is to keep the armor plates off for ease of painting separately, we would keep the plates as shown in diagrams 18-20 and 39 (along with the weapon covers and head itself), off for assembly.
Just like the Warlord, it appears, for the most part, the interior is hollow to save money on components and weight which is a definite plus!
As for mounting the arm cannons, remember that the Reaver shares the exact weapons which have been re-designed and cast for both kits. You’ll want to slap some magnets on here so you’ll be able to interchange load-outs between your Titans. Sight unseen it appears there are holes for this in diagram reference #35, but be aware of the power cable dangles in 35a as well.
The Warbringer is being regarded as the “Titan Killer” and with a cannon the size of a couple Wal-Marts on its back, are you really surprised? Overall, this kit looks very well-done and full of detail.
The Titan Owners Club
If you have a Titan of your own, you can actually register it at the Titan Owners Club, which is a really neat resource. Plus they run events from time to time as well for you to “walk” your Titan(s)
According to their site, as of December 9th, 2018, 296 Warbringers have been registered with their own unique names.
Forge World may be notorious for having raised prices on their models for everyone outside of the UK, however, they seem to have not missed a beat with their audience when it comes to this release. Each Warbringer sits at about $1500, which seems to indicate almost $450,000 or more alone in Warbringer sales if they have sold at least 296 of them per the certificate number above!
EDITORS NOTE: Since this article was written the Warbringer appears to be out of stock in the US, and UK:
