XV95 Ghostkeel Battlesuit $75
A huge, deadly and nigh-undetectable weapon of impressive killing capacity, the XV95 Ghostkeel Battlesuit is a formidable display of Tau war technology. Piloted by a single, hand-picked Tau warrior, a lone Ghostkeel is capable of appearing from seemingly nowhere, unleashing a storm of incredible firepower with its fusion collider and disappearing into the mayhem and confusion of battle. This battlesuit bristles with a vast array of advanced countermeasures, making it invisible to enemy sensors – weapons simply refuse to lock-on and the few that manage to loose off a shot are baffled by a spectacular display of flares and electronic countermeasures.
This multi-part plastic kit gives you everything needed to build one XV95 Ghostkeel Battlesuit. This miniature has a truly awesome array of modelling and posing options – arms, legs, head, engines and thrusters can all be set to different poses, and there are two different heads supplied – the head can be raised and the chest opened to reveal a male or female pilot! As well as this, you’ll receive two burst cannons, two fusion blasters, two flamers, a fusion collider, a cyclic ion raker and two XV5 stealth drone field projectors. Offensively and defensively, this battlesuit is armed to the teeth!
116 components are included in total, with a Citadel 105mm Oval base.
Pathfinder Team $35
Light reconnaissance units, Pathfinder Teams are the eyes and ears of their Commander in a way no drone can yet emulate. A Pathfinder’s foremost role is not to engage the enemy, but instead to operate ahead of their comrades, close to their foe, to accurately scout the enemy.

There are 10 Pathfinders in this kit, and they can be built in a variety of ways – there are different leg options, for kneeling, crouching or standing, as well as different head options. They sport lighter recon armour, which covers their torso, shoulders, knees and elbows, and they wear the similar long, elegant helmets to Fire Warriors.
They can carry a selection of weapons including pulse carbines, rail rifle, and ion rifles. The kit includes an enormous Recon Drone, which can be mounted on a Devilfish tank (not included), and which comes armed with a burst cannon. The box set also features a Pulse Accelerator Drone, with a four-pronged device underneath the circular disc, and the Grav-inhibitor Drone that features an orb underneath.

And for a curve ball – a new Graphic Novel from Games Workshop:
Macragges Honour Hardback Graphic Novel $40
In the aftermath of the Word Bearers’ attack on Calth, the wounded Kor Phaeron flees aboard his battle-barge Infidus Imperator, intent on returning to the war that now rages across the entire galaxy. But the Ultramarines First Chapter Master Marius Gage – under orders from Roboute Guilliman himself – has taken the mighty flagship Macragge’s Honour in pursuit, and the battle to come will surely be remembered for all eternity. Cut off from their Legions and with no hope of reinforcement, the crews of the two vessels stalk one another to the very edge of reality… and beyond.
It’s the first ever Horus Heresy graphic novel, and it’s like a hundred million dollar movie spread across 100 pages. Neil Roberts’ glorious widescreen artwork merges perfectly with Dan Abnett’s epic story, and every page has something that will make your jaw drop.
128-page hardback graphic novel featuring the 100-page story by Dan Abnett and Neil Roberts, plus pages of behind-the-scenes material, including script pages, sketches and more.
