Warhammer 40,000 Thousand Sons Rubric Marines
The Thousand Sons were the XV Legion of the original twenty Space Marine Legions. Their Primarch is Magnus, oft called Magnus the Red. The Legion turned traitor during the Horus Heresy, after which it relocated to Sortiarius, the Planet of Sorcerers, in the Eye of Terror, and dedicated itself to the Chaos God of change, sorcery and magic, Tzeentch. For a time it appeared that Tzeentch protected the Thousand Sons from the corruption and fragmentation that most of the other Traitor Legions underwent, but eventually the Legion went through a crisis of mutation and de-evolution, seemingly at the wish of their patron-God.
Aghast at this development, their chief sorcerer, Ahriman, cast a powerful spell designed to render the Thousand Sons immune to the warping effects of Chaos. While the spell succeeded in this goal, it had an unforseen consequence of transforming the mutated Thousand Sons into little more than mystically animated suits of armour barely capable of being termed as anything more sentient than automata
This multi-part plastic boxed set assembles to make 10 Thousand Sons Rubric Marines, armed with either inferno boltguns or warpflamers and contains additional options for a soulreaper cannon, icon of flame and Aspiring Sorcerer upgrades.
Miniatures are supplied unpainted and require assembly. Tools, glue & paint sold separately.
