The cruel terror troops known as Raptors consider themselves the elite of the Chaos Space Marine warbands. Their murder squads epitomise what has become the Assault Marines of the Traitor Legions. When a pack of Warp Talons emerges from the Warp, it appears to those on the battlefield below as if daemonic warriors have literally burst out from nothingness into fiery, vengeful life. Both the Raptors and the Warp Talon miniatures come in a range of staggeringly dynamic poses. Both units are sculpted perched or taking off from the battlefield debris on their bases. All over the models, the metal-rimmed armour shows all the distorting effects of the Warp: grills emerge from shoulder pads; cables jut from armour; teeth protrude from various surfaces around the rim of the jump packs. While the Raptors carry a range of different weapon options, such as bolt pistols and chainswords, the Warp Talons feature vicious-looking lightning claws and horned helmets, as well as barbarous wings on their jump packs. This multi-part plastic boxed set contains 116 components, five 25mm round bases, and a Chaos Space Marine Transfer Sheet, with which to build 5 Chaos Space Marine Raptors or 5 Chaos Space Marine Warp Talons. This kit is supplied unpainted and requires assembly
