The Legiones Astartes have access to vast arsenals of death-dealing wargear, often equipping leaders with specialised weapons for close-quarters fighting, and Despoiler Squads, sent in to butcher their opponents in the swirl of melee combat.

The Warhammer The Horus Heresy Legion Astartes Melee Weapons Upgrade plastic upgrade kit can be used to equip Legionaries from the MKIII and MKVI miniatures with a versatile set of melee weapons, suitable to arm squad leaders, and equip a 10-man Despoiler Squad. You’ll find a huge variety, allowing you to choose weapons that fit your Legion’s style of war and add character to your army. You’ll also find a set of arms that can be used to vary your poses and hold two-handed weapons.

This upgrade kit comprises 130 plastic components and is designed to be assembled with the plastic MKIII and MKVI Space Marines kits, which are sold separately. These components are supplied unpainted and require assembly – we recommend using Citadel Plastic Glue and Citadel Colour paints.
