Warhammer 40K: Emperor’s Children Teasers – Hedonistic Heads
Game Workshop is continuing to drip more teasers of things to come for the Emperor’s Children. Time for the helmets of the Hedonists.
The Emperor’s Children seem like they are still pretty early in their miniature design phase. Well, at least it appears that way based on what GW is willing to showcase. Who knows? They might already have them completed and these renders are just early concepts to taunt us. We already got a look at a few of the shoulder pads and now it’s time for the helmets of the Emperor’s Children.
“Our glimpse into the beyond this time reveals a trio of heads. Two in helmets adorned with elegant decorations perfectly befitting the epicureans wearing them, and the third a face rendered in rapt focus, no doubt eager to drink in the sensations of battle.”
Helmets of the Emperor’s Children
This trio of helmets shows what we can expect to come with the Emperor’s Children. We’ve got quite the spread here, too. The first “helmet” on the left is actually a head not wearing a helmet. In fact, it looks like this Marine has a “Noise Marine” like mouth. He’s also got a spiked collar, too.
The next helmet has very smooth features and a top knot. At first glance, I actually thought this was an Aeldari helmet. I think that is because of the shape around the eyes. Perhaps that’s a nod to Slaanesh’s origins. I would be curious to find out if that’s what the sculptor was going for.

And the final helmet is very ornate! This one seems like something you might see from a standard Chaos Space Marine but with a Slaaneshy-tint. Which, yeah, that checks out.
More Emperor’s Children Teasers Ahead
I don’t know about you all, but I’m getting the feeling that the Emperor’s Children release is going to be a long-tail reveal. I’ve talked about this before but it’s feeling a lot like the Sisters of Battle or the Cities of Sigmar teasers/release setup. If you remember those they basically were teased out for roughly a year before they landed on the shelves.
The nice part was that we got regular updates like the ones above. It might just be an arm here or weapon there. Sometimes we’d get full kits. Other times we’d get a character or unit. I’m looking forward to what GW has in store over the coming months. But I’m just saying to buckle-up for the long haul with these Emperor’s Children reveals.
Also, what are the odds we get a plastic Fulgrim?
