40k Unboxing – Legion Basilisk Forge World

Astartes players, it’s time to unleash hell – the Legion Basilisk is here!

This new kit features a fantastic never before seen Chimera class chassis that could prove to be the basis for a ton of new “Imperial Army” kits, as well as Legion variants, for years to come.

It’s both highly detailed and extremely easy to assemble at the same time, plus features a movable turret and positional crew models as well.

If this is a sign of how Forge World will be designing their vehicle kits from now on, I’m stoked for whats next.

The Kit


Legion Basilisk is available for 59 pounds (~$95) from Forge World.

As cohesive fighting forces able to operate and conquer in any theatre of war, the Space Marine Legions maintain their own mobile heavy artillery units. The long-range cannon armed Basilisk is one of the most common artillery units used by the Legiones Astartes and has proved its effectiveness both for protracted bombardments and as a defensive weapon against enemy armour. 


This complete multi-part resin and plastic kit designed by Blake Spence includes two Space Marine crew members.

Bio: Virginia restless, miniature painter & cat dad. He blames LEGOs for all this, as there was something about those little-colored blocks that started it all. Spikey Bits sprung from Rob staying motivated to hobby on his backlog of projects, while sharing his knowledge with others during the early blogging era.

LEGO maniac and scale model hobbyist in the 80s turned miniature wargamer and trading card player ever since. He’s played every edition of Warhammer 40k and Warhammer Fantasy (since 5th Edition), but Titans of all sizes will always be his favorite! It’s even rumored that his hobby vault rivals the Solemnance Galleries, containing rulebooks filled with lore from editions long past, ancient packs of black-bordered Magic Cards, and minatures made of pewter and resin.
