Reyner Posted December 18, 2015 Share Posted December 18, 2015 Thousand Sons and Star Wars on the same day! The metallic red is great I might pick these kits up and start a small Thousand Sons force!

Sandlemad Posted December 18, 2015 Share Posted December 18, 2015 The top right TS helms look pretty goofy but otherwise decent. The ones in the middle row, with the cheek plates, are very fine. Like the torsos though, but I thought all TS were supposed to have a scarab on their chest? Maybe that will come up in Book 7. What are the dangly things shown in the Red Scorpion vanguard vets bits picture? Can't make them out on the models but they look like straps.

Excessus Posted December 18, 2015 Share Posted December 18, 2015 I'm sooo going to make a mould of those scarabs and put them elsewhere! :) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/317288-forgeworld-new-releases-18122015-thousand-sons-more/#findComment-4255545 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Captain Semper Posted December 18, 2015 Share Posted December 18, 2015 Well, I have to say I agree with BCK... Not a fan of the TS stuff - not at all. I was also looking forward for these, TS is an under-represented faction in both 40k and 30k so this would be a great opportunity. It seems it's an opportunity missed. :( Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/317288-forgeworld-new-releases-18122015-thousand-sons-more/#findComment-4255551 Share on other sites More sharing options...
God-Potato of Mankind Posted December 18, 2015 Share Posted December 18, 2015 I think they're all right. They have scarabs, the lil helmet peak and iconography. These are the kits you'd use on line units, mind. If you want wild varierty and bling, you probably need to wait for Legion specific units.

Dantay VI Posted December 18, 2015 Share Posted December 18, 2015 Agree with God-Potato. I like the kits, but am not overwhelmed by it. This is fine to me because the upgrades are just to add flavor to the line units. The real test will be with the legion specific units like the Scarab Occult etc... At least we know the direction FW will me the Thousand Sons into. 1 more legion to go.....

Mango Polo Posted December 18, 2015 Share Posted December 18, 2015 Good for the rank and file, underwhelming for even sarges, let alone HQs. The good thing is these fit really well with the Russian TS heads.

Excessus Posted December 18, 2015 Share Posted December 18, 2015 Damnit Alpha Legion, you even infiltrated the Thousand Sons!

KBA Posted December 18, 2015 Share Posted December 18, 2015 Really, the only upgrade set to wow me was the whitescars one so far. The rest have been a mixed bag, and these join those ranks.

Excessus Posted December 18, 2015 Share Posted December 18, 2015 I like half the heads, and all the chests. What I'm mostly excited over is the shoulders though. But it's line infantry for sure. My sergeants will still sport the flashy thing on their heads, and my HQs will have the egyptian styled head-dresses.

God-Potato of Mankind Posted December 18, 2015 Share Posted December 18, 2015 Thinking about it, FW have pretty much confirmed these upgrades are for line troopers. They sell them in bundles designed to match the tactical squads in BaC after all. Officer level sprues for Traitors/Loyalists would be welcome later on. Early Crusade honours HQ upgrade pack with lots of blinging crests et al would be great too. For now, this just lets you spruce up your tacticals really.

Calas Typhon Posted December 18, 2015 Share Posted December 18, 2015 No new bare face without a helmet, damn it forgeworld! This is good for two reasons: 1) It looks standard, and actually looks like something the Thousand Sons would wear and not something completely different 2) Now people can stop moaning that there is no Thousand Sons stuff on the Forgeworld site! They might not be the best looking pieces (although the Chests look pretty great and the shoulders are exactly what you expect) but I am sure people can expect better pieces when legion specific units pop up or if another set of shoulders are released, similar to the Sons of Horus second set of MKIV. Edit: Also the Red Scorpions piece looks like it would work amazingly well for Emperor's Children. And that fixed body would be perfect for a Lord Commander. Hell, it even has the Palatine Aquilla by the looks of it.

Ironwithout Posted December 18, 2015 Share Posted December 18, 2015 I like those Thousand Sons upgrade sets. As always I don't care for the Deimos pattern Rhino Variant. I'll be sticking to the Mars version.
