Forge World Iron Hands Immortals and Christmas Jigsaw

Iron Hands Immortals

I recently neglected Forge World a bit (with the exception of Lorgar). Time to make up.

For one, there’s some new, gritty Iron Hands Space Marines… the Immortals. For another, an intriguing jigsaw preview, that is almost certainly going to end up a Horus Heresy name of some kind.


#1 – Iron Hands Medusan Immortals

Forge World Iron Hands Immortals

For those Iron Hands who have been found wanting in the eyes of their Primarch, there remains a final chance at glory and redemption within the ranks of the Medusan Immortals.

The Immortals are always found where the battle is fiercest and the chances of survival, even for an Legiones Astartes, are at its dimmest. Armed and armoured principally as Breacher units and featuring a high level of cybernetic rebuild among them, it is their lot and their pride to fight and to die with steadfast cold fury, never breaking ranks, marching relentlessly into the jaws of Hell.

There is no doubt that Forge World knows how to sculpt some fine Space Marines these days! These Immortals come at £36.00 for 5.


#2 – Forge World Jigsaw

Forge World Christmas Jigsaw

For those who like riddles, Forge World is teasing another new miniature with a three-part jigsaw puzzle. So far, there is the base, which looks as if it could fit into the Horus Heresy Iron Warriors theme as well. Or it could be something completely different.

The base is kinda odd by itself, unless, of course, it fits into a scenic base similar to Forge World’s previous Horus Heresy Characters Series (Primarchs, but also Loken, Erebus, etc..).


#3 – Thoughts?

Leave a comment and let me know what you think?

I would love to hear your guesses on the jigsaw!

    Somebody piece that together. God knows from where or whether it’s legit or not.

    • Bobthemim

      I figured it would be Morty.. at least he is better than Lorgar, despite the fact that Morty wore a helm and a cloak.. and i dont think ever showed his face outside of his legion

      • http://pinsofwar.net/ Zweischneid

        If that picture is correct, I would’ve thought of him as Heresy-Era Typhus, not Mortarion, no?

        • Bobthemim

          Typhon didn’t have a Man Reaper but fluff changes all the time.. I mean Thunderhammers were sallies only until Betrayal came out.

          But I do hope you are correct in that it is Typhon and not Morty.. considering Morty is meant to be a bulky Primarch

          • belverker

            pretty sure it is Typhon and don’t they mention him with a manreaper in Flight of the Eisenstein? Plus the deathguard have that unit of termies with them. I don’t think it is big enough for mortarion, plus it looks like none of the art we have seen of him

          • Hive Senteni

            I don’t think it’s Typhus or Mortarion the feet don’t match.. However they do seem to match Alpharius. I could be dead wrong, but just my 2 cents

          • belverker

            i don’t think it would be alpharius, because this model is in terminator armour, has a subtle nurgle mark on his knees and has the death guard legion symbol on his shoulder pad…but i can’t wait to see what they do with alpharius (and omegon)

          • Guest

            aw man! Didn’t notice the symbol. Oh well, your probably right belverker. it’s most likely Typhus or even Grulgor. That’s still pretty cool. Can’t wait for Alpharius and Omegon either.

          • Yggdrasil

            Well, in the Hammer & Bolter serial novel “The Lion”, Captain Typhon
            of the Death Guard fight the Iron Hands with a Man Reaper…
            Also,
            the other “signature” weapon of Mortarion is “The Lantern”, which IIRC
            is described as a pistol, not a wrist-mounted gun…
            But that’s all Black Library fluff, and there has already been a few discrepancies between FW & BL in the past, so…

            On another hand, Mortarion was described in the first FW Horus Heresy book, without any model yet… So… Who knows ?!?
