A Daemon Prince of the Ruinstorm, spreading madness and slaughtering all before him in baleful frenzy, Samus is here! A hulking monstrosity, towering over mortals, Samus, a daemon of murder made manifest, was incarnated at the height of his powers as the walls between reality and the Warp were stretched thin by the Word Bearers’ dark rites at Calth. If his corporeal flesh was destroyed, he would soon return again to wreak havoc and claim more souls for the powers of Chaos, the sound of his name echoing through the Warp and in the minds of men.

Samus, Daemon Prince of the Ruinstorm is the latest model in the Horus Heresy Character Series. Presented in a collectors edition black box, Samus can be built with his right hand clutching a dismembered Space Marine or as an open claw. Samus can be used in Word Bearers Legion armies and Codex: Chaos Daemon armies in Horus Heresy games. He can also be used in Codex: Chaos Daemons and Khorne Daemonkin armies in standard games of Warhammer 40,000. Rules for using Samus can be downloaded HERE.

This is a complete, multi-part resin kit. It is available to pre-order today and will be despatched from Friday 8th May.

Experimental rules here. Can be taken in 40k by Daemonkin and Daemons (http://www.forgeworld.co.uk/Downloads/Product/PDF/S/Samus.pdf)

Also this week, Solar Auxilia Tactical Command (http://www.forgeworld.co.uk/New_Stuff/SOLAR_AUXILIA_TACTICAL_COMMAND.html)

£65.00 a pahnd.

And I still think it looks like a very mediocre Skaven model...
The Solar Auxilia Command is fiddy shades of awesome though!

Was hoping the Commander would be separate, as that's an awesome Creed counts-as. Ah well.

I like Samus, and pretty reasonable price considering the price of a verminlord for example.

And what sort of storm do we have this week? Oh it's a Ruinstorm. Well I guess it makes a nice change from all the Deathstorms, Bloodstorms and Storms of Claws...

heartily disapointed this thread wasn't making fun of the new Ad Mech robot...

Love both these guys but sadly Im a real wings guy.

I think has solidified my desire to sell my 40k AS models and pick up all FW SA models replacing them. Fortunately ill get to wait till fall, as ill be real miffed if these come out cheaper in plastic later and by later I mean sooner

Aside from the Marine in his hand, he looks like he could have just stepped off a WFB battlefield. Not gonna say that's "proof" of the WFB-40K wall coming down even more, but it's certainly interesting to look at him and not realize he's meant for 40K until you see an Ultramarine.

Face is the only thing that bugs me, but I think it's just not a good angle, and a better angle would make it look fine. The rest of it looks like a stock tall daemon. Just because he's a tall daemon who isn't in a "look at my biceps!" pose doesn't make him Skaven-esque.

Not really seeing the appeal of Samus personally, but that command squad is pretty nice!

Naturally, you're a glass half full kinda guy too busy huffing 40k from a plastic (Harrods) bag.

I'm more glass was half empty until I smashed it and ground it into your face kinda guy.

Nice pom-poms though, they really go with your bangs.

:p

If my glass is full longer than five seconds, I'm doing something wrong.

Samus feels like kind of a less-good Scylla Anfingrimm.

That command squad, on the other hand...!

Ah, hot black cement from the mighty zhab of Satan Himself.

Nice.
