Hunt Down Xenos: New Ballistus Dreadnought Upgrade Kit!

Ballistus Dreadnought Upgrade Kit featureA new upgrade kit from Pop Goes the Monkey is here to help you make a Ballistus Dreadnought perfect for Deathwatch!

Pop Goes the Monkey always comes out with some of the most excellent and high-quality minis and bits! It’s always good to check out what they’re up to since their massive catalog has almost everything you could need.

This time around, they’ve made some more conversion bits to help upgrade your existing Redemptors into the new Ballistus dreads. Save some money by snagging your preferred weapons, slotting them into the arm sockets, and you’re good to go! Plus, these are made specifically for a certain chapter, and you can even score it as an STL. Don’t worry, though; we’ll look at the initial kit as well if you don’t want to hunt Xenos.

Xenos Hunters: Redemptor Dread – Ballista 2 Pack: $19.99

Ballistus Dreadnought Upgrade Kit

This kit includes 2 Redemptus Dread Weapons: 1 Left-side Missile Launcher and 1 Right-side Twin Heavy Laser.

Ballistus Dreadnought Upgrade Kit 2

These bits are designed to fit best with our Atlas Redemptor kits but, will still work great with the Primaris Redemptor dreadnought, Invictor Tactical Warsuit, or similar models. Our Atlas Pattern conversion kits have a slightly wider carapace piece than the standard kit, which these weapons will accommodate.

These weapon options allow your model to be more versatile to meet your ever changing needs with the use of a glue-free, insert and swivel shoulder socket attachment. This is much like the components of the standard kit. However, these unique weapons will give your standard kit a distinctive look.
