Customise Your Horus Heresy Emperor’s Children With New Bitz
July 8, 2022 by brennon
Games Workshop has been previewing more of the bitz that you can snap up for use with your Warhammer: The Horus Heresy Legions. The focus this week is on Heads and Shoulder Pads for those playing as The Emperor's Children.

Shop Warhammer: The Horus Heresy @ Store.OnTableTp
As with the previous releases, this collects together eleven different heads that can be used to add some pomp to your Legions. You get some regular helmets alongside a plumed option for a commander within your force. You also have the bare head showing off the proud features of the stunning Emperor's Children.
The Shoulder Pads also bear the sigil of the Emperor's Children and there are enough in the set for doing a squad of ten Space Marines.

As I've mentioned with other sets, these might not be what you want for every miniature in your army. These resin sets might end up getting a bit expensive at that point. I would recommend dotting them in and around your Legion or just using them on elite units.

The new Space Marines in their MKVI armour certainly look good with the bonus addition of those helmets and shoulder pads. It adds a bit of character without going over the top.
Are you going to be snapping these up?

Not sure that every HH helmet and shoulder pad set really is that breaking news when there are more interesting things going on – and I say that as a 30k enthusiast. That being said the Emperor’s Children kits really are nice.
It’s probably better to use these ‘upgrades’ to mark sergeants and other minor characters from the horde, because I really can’t imagine anyone trying to do their entire army with them …
Even a single spacemarine box has 20 bodies which would need a second set just to update them all. Things get expensive real fast.
I’m doing my entire army with them…
I guess when you have disposable cash, and this is one hobby, then it’s ok.
hey … you do you 😀
???
Nice looking upgrades.
Oh wow, temptation …
I don’t know why they keep pushing new stuff:
– I’m STILL waiting for 3 Deimos Rhinos, order from 17 June, with “no ETA”
– two outstanding ForgeWorld orders, same time frame.
– no re-stock on the MKIII kits… why?
– most of this stuff is GW order only, as GW forgot that retailers carry their stuff (again).
Horus Heresy is probably the WORST product launch in GW recent history.
And, FW is so behind on their kits it’s near pointless starting.
Nice personally I would mix the helmets an possibly the shoulders to make a realist look war torn especially loyalist army’s.
So $23 for 11 resin heads or 10 resin shoulder pads. Yikes.
GW charging lots? Normal.
