Horus Heresy Thousand Sons Librarian Consul

[Lord Marshal]

Notably NOT a Praetor (not that you can't use him as one). Be interesting to see if they still get their missing PA Praetor later.

That's great.

 

The new helmets have been rad

[Casual Heresy]

Oh my!

 

An absolutely perfect Thousand Son model. I’ll definitely be picking him up. 
 

interesting that he’s modelled in MK4 armour as well. 

[WrathOfTheLion]

Fantastic kit, will definitely pick one up. He'll probably pull double duty as a Sorcerer in 40k.

[Brother Dallo]

Interesting to see that they are are using the Mk IV design more or less “as is”. Compare to the likes of Fafnir Rann, who shares design elements with the newer Mk III sculpts. So it could suggest that either the suspected Mk IV resizing/resculpt isn’t happening any time soon or that they will stick pretty closely to the current plastic design (unlike the Mk III redo).

 

Time will tell, I guess.

Looks Great for once!

[Sarges]

Gonna tell my kids this was 30k Ahriman.

But... 30K Ahriman already has a model. :P

[WrathOfTheLion]

I think MK IV will be next year. I've noticed they've definitely modified the recent MK IV, with like Lucius, the SoH Preator and this with some scaling changes. My guess is for now, they're sort of bridging the two so these don't look too out of place with either the old kit or the new kit.

[Gamiel]

Nice. Really like his "spear". His helmetless head is a bit bland.

[Marshal Rohr]

Oh my God, that is cool! We are so back! 
 

edit: AND he’s in Mark 4 AND he has the little Elton John clips for the cape on his forearm. Absolute masterclass.

Last week we got a Stormseer Consul representing the Chapter that pioneered the "Take the cup but only sip" style of Psyker Magic the future Librarians would utalise.

 

This week we get a Thousand Sons Librarian representing those who realised the warp existed,

ed about and found out.

 

I bet next week we get a HH era Rune Priest representing those who 100% aren't psykers bro they're just using the energy of the planet while being half way across the galaxy trust me bro.

 

In all seriousness tho, the TSon Libby looks amazing and I'm considering getting one to use as a Sorc in 40k.

And fittingly no psychic hood on him either. Guess hubris runs in the family over in the fifteenth. 

[Astartes Consul]

Yeah that’s gorgeous. 
 

Also technically the first generic power armoured Thousand Sons character, right?

[Pearson73]

Top notch design, love the spear too. 

[Tichinde]

I'll take 2 please.

There already was a cataphractii praetor. But non character non terminator, yes this is the first. And he's gorgeous.

My reaction was the same MK4!! WOOHOO!

[Kastor Krieg]

Excellen mini, awesome design.

[Scribe]

Gorgeous. 

[Nagashsnee]

Fantastic mini!

[Azaiel]

Great looking mini, could be used in 40k as is IMO.

[Noserenda]

Very nice model, i wouldnt get too excited about Mk4 though, thats always been the Ksons brand since armour mks were introduced :D 

[Blindhamster]

legitimately like this, one of the first of the newer heresy models I've generally loved.

You know, its touched on a bit in Inferno but I always found it funny that despite only being somewhat small for a Legion (80k is not that small), the TSons seem to have been one of the best equipped and supplied Legions pre-Prospero.

 

Its sort of amazing given that Magnus seems to have a difficulty opening his mouth without putting his foot in (for occult or structural support purposes, I assume).
