Upgrade your Primaris Impulsor Tank with the latest conversion bits out there today, and keep your enemies off your tailgate!
Updated February 12th, 2024, by Rob Baer with the latest information and links.
Your Primaris Impulsor is a solid workhorse, but let’s be honest—it could use a little extra flair. Stock loadouts are fine, but if you want your ride to stand out and send a message on the battlefield, it’s time to kit it out with the best 40k compatible conversion bits available. Extra armor plates? Got ‘em. Custom turrets? Check. Iconography to make it truly yours? Plenty of 40k compatible options.
Whether you’re gunning for a more aggressive look or just adding some extra personality, the right bits can take your Impulsor from standard issue to battlefield legend. Let’s go over some of the best upgrades out there so you can keep your enemies guessing—and off your tailgate
New Rhinoback- Impulsor Conversion Kit: $19.99
The Rhinoback crew compartment comes in four pieces and slots right onto the back of your Primaris Impulsor—simple, clean, and effective. The tailgate isn’t just for show either; it’s got a working hinge, so you can swing it open or snap it shut like it was meant to be there all along.
Up top, you’ve got options. One side of the hatch is ready to mount the Impulsor’s turret weapons, while the other goes full classic with a Rhino-style hatch. No glue? No problem. This piece locks into place snugly, and if you ever feel like switching things up, it’s compatible with other “Top Hatch” components in the shop
This is just a super easy bit to add to your tanks that make them look that much cooler. If you love what Pop Goes the Monkey is up to, check out some of their other stuff here!
How They Look on the Tank:
The roof section comes with a built-in banner stand that plays nice with our MaMag Vexilla system. How does it work? Simple—two 1/16″ x 1/8″ (2mm x 3mm) cylinder magnets let you slap that Vexilla (banner) onto both your vehicle and a backpack, making unit identification a breeze.
Got troops inside? Banner stays on the ride. They hop out? Just pop the banner off and attach it to the squad’s banner carrier. No more guessing who’s where—just quick, clean swaps that keep your battlefield looking sharp and organized.
These magnets can be found in many retailers online, but we recommend our friends over at the Magnet Barron.
Chapter Specific Impulsor Kits- Full Rhinoback Upgrade: $29.99
This conversion kit is built to fit the Primaris Impulsor (not the Repulsor—so don’t go trying to mash it onto the wrong tank). We kept the standard “Top Hatch” fitting from our Rhino chassis parts, meaning you can mix and match with a bunch of our other upgrades, like missile launchers and turret weapons, without any hassle.
The front plate swaps right in for the stock Impulsor part, while the crew compartment and insignias just get added onto the model—no awkward modifications needed. And the best part? The branded tailgate isn’t just for show. It slots into a working hinge, so you can pop it open, close it up, and snap it into place like it was always meant to be there.
We’ve used a ton of their kits in the past and they always fit on without much work and are super high-quality. If you want an easy conversion to set your Impulsors apart, this is perfect! If you love what Pop Goes the Monkey is up to, check out some of their other stuff here!
Branding Kits: $19.99
These parts are made to fit right onto the Primaris Impulsor, giving your ride a fresh, standout look. The front plate swaps in seamlessly for the stock piece, so no awkward guesswork is required.
You’ll also get a set of add-on vehicle insignia—perfect for filling in those open side panels and adding some extra character to your tank. Whether you’re going for a custom chapter vibe or just want to make your Impulsor look a little more intimidating, this kit’s got you covered.
