Hidden In Plain Sight: New Chaos Space Marine Models

Games Workshop managed to sneak in a brand new kit of new models for Chaos in the latest round of previews. The unit may be old but the new models are stunning!

Warhammer Community announced the support coming to the Black Legion specifically in the Vigilus Ablaze book and gave us a first look at the new Terminators!

So what’s new about these guys exactly?

  • The new kit has a power sword
  • New kit has at least one combi plasma bit (seen on Sergeant)
  • Tusks on the new kit are completely re-posed
  • Trophy racks are completely new with Space Marine helmets from different Chapters displayed
  • The Sergeant from the new kit has ornamental horns mounted on the top of his armor

  • Power fist looks to be part of an older rumor Daemon engine
  • Pauldrons on the new kit look to be reworked and scaled differently

Chaos veterans from back in the day may remember how much of a pain it was to convert the Terminators into having the correct wargear you wanted them to have. However, it looks like there’s a kit that’s about to surface loaded with different options. Terminators aren’t just getting new models as a part of their support either! They are actually getting their own specialist detachment that shatters enemy morale.

So now that we’ve seen a Chaos unit that slipped under the radar for any rumors emerge, what other kits could GW have updated?

Will we see new Warp Talons? New Khorne Berserkers? These rumor engines may be the only evidence we get until GW drops the models in a never-before-seen preview! Keep your eyes peeled for more Chaos support centered around Vigilus in the coming days and let us know what you think about the new Terminators in the comments of our Facebook Hobby Group.
