Snag The Cadian Upgrade Sprue Soon For Warhammer 40,000
January 5, 2023 by brennon
Games Workshop has been showing off a new upgrade sprue coming out for the Astra Militarum of Warhammer 40,000. Will it be for a long-lost regiment that has finally been brought back to the tabletop? No. It's a Cadian one.

The set comes with weapons, kit, heads, arms, new bodies and more for you to use when building your units of Cadians. Despite having their planet blown to piece, the Cadians do tend to get about a bit. Despite my jesting earlier, this is actually a rather cool upgrade sprue and I like the options they have included, especially with the tools and other bits of kit that the Cadians have been lugging about.
I like the good mix of new head options in the set and that lasgun sunk into the ground is a good option for an objective marker in your games.
You can make some pretty awesome miniatures with the set like this Wounded Guardsman who has seen better days. If your legs still work and the trigger finger moves, you better keep fighting in the name of The Emperor.

You might even find some time to match up one of your wounded comrades with the aid of a Medic perhaps? Well, there are options in the kit for you to do that as well.

I think that this set is going to be great for those customising their units in Warhammer 40,000 but it would also be great for those who want to make unique Kill Teams. You could use this to make a beleaguered squad that has been sent behind enemy lines. Expendable is the name of the game!
Do you like the look of this new Upgrade Sprue for the Astra Militarum? Would you like to see more of them?

Welcome to the body shop
Frank?
Looks like some nice bits for people to add to their miniatures. Bit worried it will probably cost a arm and a leg to get it though
£99.99 from some berk on eBay ?

Those are okay looking upgrades. Nothing special but there is nothing wrong with those either. Just your run of the mill upgrades. But GW is still afraid to make some upgrades to make some guardswomen.
10 of the 26 heads are female in the upgrade kit.
Beat me to it. Plus half the heads for the kits in the cadia stands box. You could run an all female guard if you wanted. Bodies are the same, no boob armour here, just the faces are female.
Not sure if it’s the painting style, but these faces do look very..pinched? I assume it’s to ensure the big cheekguards can fit on them, but it looks like they stuck the whole face onto the space usually occupied by the nose and eyes only? Or is it just me?
