Spikey Bits » 40k Unboxing – Hyperios Air Defense Platform
Pesky flyers got you down? Try fielding a few of these to make them go away!
This little guy is a fun little kit that Forge World put our a few years ago, and has seen a new life now defending armies against flyers.
The neat part is that the turret itself will fit into the standard rhino tank collar to make another model. So when you’re not using it to down enemy ships, you can have a cool looking whirlwind turret or a counts as Scorpius.
Plus since the top fits into a rhino slot, you can re-task Razorback weapons by placing them into the platform legs to make sentry guns! Point and air defense all in one poseable kit!
The Kit
Hyperios Air Defense Platform is available for 21.5 pounds (~$35) from Forge World.
The Hyperios Air Defence Platform when linked to a Air Defence Command Platform can provide Space Marines with an effective Air Defence system. This is a complete multi-part resin kit. Master model by Will Hayes. Unboxing
