Sure, we’ve seen a few teasers about new 40k here and there over the past weeks, however here’s the latest straight from GW now and in case you’re just tuning in, have we seen anything before?
New Primaris Assault Intercessor Marines Announced
This is the teaser that we originally saw during the stream.
Combat is on the way for Primaris models now with at least one new model coming to hopefully a new multi-part kit- more on that below…
Pistol ready to deliver the Emperor’s Justice!
New Primaris chainsword sized bit perhaps?
It looks like there is at least one new kit on the way for Space Marines, but if the size of this preview was any indication, it is certainly not the last for 9th edition.
More New Primaris Space Marine Models & Bikes SPOTTED!
This is the same guy as in the teaser, however, we have seen some other render images surface online too! At the time of the preview these renders were flying rampant across the internet, with no clear source discernable.
First up a hint at all the poses we might see in the squad. As we can see the previewed model in the second one here. So chances are these are legitimate.
Over on the new warhammer40000.com there is also some new artwork showing what looks to be the new shield units! The helmets seem to be special medieval-themed from old suits of armor.
Next up we have the new Shield models that we actually caught a glimpse of in the 9th cinematic trailer. Not to mention they have a similar painted pistol variant on the site!
It is possible that these models will all be from one kit, as this painted model has super similar posing, and the exact same armor, iron halo, and shield. Perhaps the kit will have both Sword and Pistol options!
Speaking of pistols, that looks to be Vulkite! If you are familiar with 30k/Horus Heresy, Vulkite is used in that. If true, this would be one of the first models to use Vulkite in 40k.
We also got rendered images of Primaris Space Marine bikes. While this has the fewer connections to things we have seen thus far, the fact that the other renders are so accurate means this is likely to be as well.
Lastly, we have some sort of Primaris executioner figure. We know next to nothing about this guy, but holy cow is that menacing. The square tip of the sword makes it an “executioner sword” because its only use is for chopping (like an execution). Maybe its similar to Chaos’ Master of Executions and will be a character hunter? Who knows, we will have to wait and see. Also, skulls are cool okay, no one is counting, but there’s at least 8 on his front view.
Looks like combat is making a comeback for the new edition of 40k, and these Marines are making look oh so cool!
