Horus Heresy Legiones Astartes Sky-Hunter Squadron
Sky-hunters are feared strike units, mounted atop sophisticated and powerful jetbikes. These high-speed craft are more akin to compact aircraft than ground bikes – propelled across the battlefield by jet engines with grav-impellor assistance, they can maintain great speeds for extended periods of low-altitude flight. The jetbike's lift-strength is enough to carry an armoured Space Marine and his wargear along with a variety of heavy weapons mounts and stocks of ammunition, giving the Sky-hunters access to extremely potent, highly mobile firepower.
This multipart plastic kit builds three Sky-hunters – skilled Legionaries mounted on high-speed jetbikes. Each bike can be armed with a choice of heavy bolter, multi-melta, plasma cannon, or volkite culverin, and comes with optional sigils for Loyalists and Traitors, as well as accessories such as pistol holsters, sheathed chainswords, and an augur device and stowed helmet. The Space Marine riders have interchangeable heads and chestplates, and can be built in a variety of poses – revving their bikes, brandishing pistols, and one swinging his chainsword. Each is armed with a chainsword and your choice of bolt pistol or volkite serpenta – the kit also includes one hand flamer.
This kit comprises 161 plastic components, and is supplied with three Citadel 60mm Round Bases and three Citadel 50mm Ball Top Flying Stems. Also included is a Legiones Astartes Vehicle Transfer Sheet, containing 44 optional markings and icons for the Sons of Horus and Imperial Fists Legions. These miniatures are supplied unpainted and requires assembly – we recommend using Citadel Plastic Glue and Citadel Colour paints.
