Bits question-Wolf head backpack?

Recommended Posts

I'm a digital SW but am slowly collecting models when I see great deals on EBAY. Figure I'll have more spare time as the kids get older and might even get them interested in the hobby down the road.

I have no clue what the contents are for anything besides the current SW Grey Hunter box.

Where can you find the SW backpacks with the twin wolf heads (image below)? Is that only from older SW tactical boxes? I saw a box of SW tacticals on EBAY today and the artwork was different. The twin wolf backpack caught my eye. It sold for $22 US including shipping if you are curious.

I actually posted a question similar to this a few months ago now. They come from the Space Wolf Accesory Frame sprue that you can buy from GW. The sprue on Ebay was a huge rip-off, retail value is $9.90, im pretty sure these are order only, my local store didn't have any stock. Best of luck!

*EDIT*

Thanks for the link. Apparently GW calls it an "ornate backpack"

As for what I saw on EBAY wasn't a bits sprue. It was a SW tactical marine box. One of the images had the double wolf pack (circled it in the image...and already posted the zoomed image). I was wondering if it was an older box.

I may be wrong but that looks like the old 3rd Edition box, they used to have separate Grey Hunters and Blood Claws boxes back then. If memory serves it was a tactical squad box with the Space Wolf Accessory Sprue.

 

Thanks for the knowledge Jimmy Carmine.

 

I love the history of the figures just as much as the fluff.

Yes, that was pretty much it.
