GWS-43-06-2019 Games Workshop Warhammer 40,000: Chaos Space Marines (2019 Box)

About This Kit

Not even the Space Marines are safe from Chaos. Some of these warriors turned during the Horus Heresy and some far more recently, and either way what came back is not what marched out: gene-forged soldiers with dark blessings layered over the top, hollowed by centuries of war into something fearless and no longer quite human.

The box calls them callous foot soldiers of the Heretic Astartes, which is fair. They are the core of a Chaos Space Marines army and they do whatever the list needs, with bolter fire at range, blades and pistols up close, and a spread of special and heavy weapons.

This is the original packaging, sold under the name Chaos Space Marines before Games Workshop renamed the unit to Legionaries. The kit inside is the same one in the current box, which we stock separately as item 43-06. The back of this box carries the older Legion write-ups and a printed paint guide for each, which the current packaging replaced with images.

What's Included

• (10x) Chaos Space Marines
• (10x) 32 mm round bases

The kit comprises 144 plastic components in total.

You Also Need

You will also need plastic glue and paint to finish this kit. Warhammer Colour, formerly Citadel Colour, is what Games Workshop recommends.

Key Features

• Arm every model with close-combat weapons and pistols, or with ranged wargear
• A choice of plasma gun, flamer, meltagun, heavy bolter or missile launcher
• Parts for up to two Aspiring Champions, so the box builds one squad of 10 or two squads of 5
• A Chaos icon, interchangeable components and optional grenades, so no two squads need look alike
• Designed to work with the Havocs kit, so heavy weapons can be mixed between the two

Who It's For

Anyone building a Chaos Space Marines army, and anyone who would rather have the original box. The models are current whichever packaging they come in, so this is a collector's preference rather than a compromise.

The kit paints up as any of the Traitor Legions. Black Legion, Night Lords, Word Bearers, Alpha Legion and Iron Warriors are all buildable from what is in the box, and this box prints a paint guide for each of them on the back.

Age & Safety

Contains small parts and components with fine points. Not suitable for children under 3 years. Recommended for ages 12+. Model comes unassembled and requires assembly and painting.
