Pop Goes the Monkey is always coming out with some of the coolest minis and bits on the market! They basically have something for every faction out there and all kinds of games. If you’ve been looking to upgrade your army, they are a great place to start.
This time around they are adding a whole host of shoulder pads to make your Chaos Space Marines stand out and give them a really cool feel. There are so many Chapters in the Grimdark, it’s always fun to play with some of the lesser-known ones! You could also use these for Chaos or loyalists, which just makes them even cooler. They are sized for Chaos, firstborn, and the new size of Marines. Enough of this talking, let’s jump into the bits!
Anubian Shoulder Pads: $12.99
For the price and ten a kit, you can really upgrade your entire army pretty affordably. Again, with so many styles you can either just give your Marines a simple style but cool insignias. Or you can go serious and add that little bit of flair to your Marines.
Let’s hear a little from them about the bits:
The Abhorrent style of shoulder pads is inspired by the warp-tainted armor of the new chaos marine models. Sold unpainted, each pauldron has a custom-designed, raised emblem and detail on them that makes painting easy and ensures a consistent, uniform appearance to your entire army. These will fit both the new and classic 28mm scale, space marine, or chaos marine models.
They have so many styles going on that you could keep your minis looking similar but give them all enough variety that individual units will stand out. If you like what Pop Goes the Monkey is up to, check out some of their other stuff here!
Insignias: $15.99
You get 30 in a pack, so for not that much, you can really upgrade your entire army! Well, probably not the entire thing, but if you pick up a couple of packs, you’ll have all kinds of insignias to throw around. Let’s hear from them about the set:
This insignia pack is designed to fit on any shoulder or rounded area of your favorite models. (YES, they fit the new marines) They are meant to personalize your army by providing a raised emblem that makes painting easy and ensures a consistent and uniform appearance. As an added benefit, this product makes it possible to add your favorite insignia to models you’ve already painted. Simply prime, paint, and glue (Super Glue) to ensure a clean look.
That does it for this one, now go grab some great new bits for your army!
