RUMORS – Primaris Space Marines Release Lineup?
The latest rumor was spotted over on BoLS and it gives some details about new Marine box sets that we might be seeing.
Don’t forget to add salt.
Industry professionals tell BoLS the following on the kits:
Infantry Boxes
Primaris Infantry Box: 5 models w/ bolt rifles, plasma & grav options.
Primaris Jump Infantry Box: 3 models w/ assault bolters & CCW options.
Primaris Heavy Infantry Box: 3 models w/ Gravis armor & heavy weapon options.
Officers/Command
Primaris Command Box: 1 model, build as Captain, Lieutenant, or Ancient.
Primaris Librarian Clampack: 1 model.
Primaris Character (named): Clampack Captain w/ Gravis armor.
Vehicles
Repulsor Tank
Redemptor Dreadnought
Primaris Flyer (details unknown)
The rumor of these new boxes is coming only a couple days after the rumor we saw from 75hastings69.
AFAIK “Initially” there are 4 boxes of “troops/infantry/marines” (including the flying ones), 2 vehicles, the Dread, and 2 “character” sets, which I assume will be captains and Lieutenants. As for when I rarely dare to dabble in such things (especially after the timing of the plastic thunderhawk release.… which might still actually not be wrong, just my guess at the timing thanks to the “we’ve sold our last resin thunderhawk” making me jump to conclusions!). I will say I am “expecting” Death Guard to release after the boxed set and for new marines to be closely behind them….. however I could be wrong of course 😉
BTW I also never thought I’d be starting let alone be excited about an army of SM, however as the new marines range is small and not overwhelming and I like the armour and overall style I am going to start a SM army, just not sure what chapter yet.
So it looks like the Space Marines are going to be getting more individual boxes according to these rumors. But what is that Primaris Flyer all about? We’ve already seen the Repulsor Tank and Redemptor Dreadnought. But at the same time it looks like GW is going to be breaking the starter down and selling everything individually, just like they did with the Burning of Prospero box. What are your thoughts? Let us know in the comments below.
