During the 'White Dwarf Weekly' years (2014-2016) there used to be a section at the end of almost every issue that presented the BIT OF THE WEEK. I'm listing all of them (with original description) for future kitbash/conversion reference. Enjoy 01 MKIV HELMET
The MkIV helmet on the Sternguard frame is a wonderfully characterful component. It combines a Heresy-era mark of armour with a high-tech targeting array and an Aquila stamped on the forehead. Best of all, it fits on any plastic Space Marine miniature.
|  | 02 Vox Skull
A skull with a bionic eye and a vox-projector atop it makes the perfect detail for a scenery conversion or even an ideal objective marker. You get loads of these spare in Imperial Bastions and Aegis Defence Lines.
|  |
03 SEAGULL
The Seagull on the Lothern Skycutter is an uncommon bird, rarely seen beyond the shores of Ulthuan. It’s so rare, in fact, that none of us in White Dwarf had actually seen one until recently. It’s a little sprue-gem that adds huge depth and realism to a model.
|  | 04 SHIMMERSHIELD
The Shimmershield in the Dire Avengers kit is elegant, but functional – an iconic piece of Eldar wargear. The ball and socket joint on the shoulder makes it a versatile piece that’s great for dynamic conversions on both Eldar and Dark Eldar models.
|  |
05 CURIOUS OWL
Hailed by Adam as his favourite Warhammer ‘bit’, the Owl that comes on the Wood Elves Dryad kit is a versatile component for kitbashing and conversions. “It’s the perfect familiar for an Amber Wizard,” Adam says. “I really need to give that a go.”
|  | 06 SLAANESH HEAD
While converting Chaos Space Marines, Dan took a particular interest in the Slaanesh Head in the Forsaken kit. “It’s the lack of nose that does it,” says Dan. “It makes the model’s face look really creepy. It also fits perfectly on a Chaos Space Marine torso.”
|  |
07 PULSE PISTOL
The pulse pistol is the smallest gun in the pulse weapon family, a hand-held plasma weapon designed for close urban warfare. It’s an ideal gun for sneaky Pathfinder operatives, though it would also look great held by a Fire Warrior Shas’ui.
|  | 08 BACKPACK
Perfect for toting spare wargear into battle, this backpack is from the Catachan Command Squad kit. We like the fact it has a knife and a machete strapped to it.
|  |
09 BABY GRIFFON
He may not be very big, but this baby Griffon from the Empire General kit will still tear out your knee caps with his viciously sharp beak. “It’s a great little piece,” says Dan, “and looks great both on a character’s base or even as part of a unit diorama.”
|  | 10 GIANT VICTIM
This poor unfortunate is from the Warhammer Stonehorn kit. He’s the perfect captive for any number of dioramas. “If one of your opponents collects Empire,” says Kris Shield, “you owe it to yourself to paint this guy in the colours of their army.”
|  |
11 TENTACLID
“It’s a missile with teeth,” says Jes, zooming it around the room. “You get four of them on the Hive Crone, but if you build the Harpy then you’ll have them spare. They’d make great objectives or cool pieces for Tyranid conversions.”
|  | 12 SERVO SKULL
The Space Marine Devastator Squad comes with several Servo Skulls on its frames. These nifty little extras make brilliant details for character models, especially Space Marine Captains, Inquisitors and other discerning individuals.
|  |
13 THE WATCHER
A spare part on the Deathwing Knights frame, the Watcher in the Dark is the ideal way of representing a Perfidious Relic in your Dark Angels army. It’s also a pretty useful accessory to mark out the Inner Circle members in your collection, and it’s an artefact much sought after by (nefarious) hobbyists intent on modelling Fallen Dark Angels. Someone fetch the excruciator!
|  | 14 ADRENAL GLANDS
This brain-like Tyranid bio-morph is a great piece for personalising Tyranid monsters. It would also work well as an Objective Marker, or even latched on to the underside of a piece of terrain, representing a Tyranid infestation.
|  |
15 HORNED SKULL
This sinister skull can be found lurking on the Beastmen Ungor sprue. “It’s a great banner top,” says Dan, “but it could easily be put to use on a model’s base or even as a macabre head on a converted model.”
|  | 16 BALEFIRE
The balefire is an optional extra for the Corpse Cart, and if you don’t use it on your model it makes a fantastic malefic brazier, ideal for Inquisitors who burn heretics, Daemon summoning rituals or any other need you have of sinister sorcerous flames.
|  |
17 CYBORG HEAD
The most inventive (read: psychotic) Pain Boyz can’t help tinkering with their subjects. A missing ear or broken jaw is ignored by the Dok for an opportunity to do some impromptu Cybork surjury instead. This head is from the Ork Nobz kit.
|  | 18 SQUASHED GOBLIN
Perfect for adorning the base of anything large enough to squash a Goblin, intentionally or otherwise, this unlucky little chap is also ideal for adding some sculpted relief to Dwarf or Empire tavern signs. So, ours is a XXXXXX and we’ll see you at the sign of the Squashed Goblin…
|  |
19 HOLY TOME
“A massive leather-bound book held aloft by a dagger. That’s what I’d carry into battle,” says Dan. There are six of these holy tomes in the Grey Knights Terminators boxed set, some closed and locked shut, others open like this one.“This is the perfect place to try a little freehand painting,” adds Dan. “You’ll need a lot of patience to paint on all those tiny wordy squiggles, but the end result will look great.
|  | 20 MOON HEAD
All this talk of Orks has set Dan off on a hunt through his own bitz box. “The Warhammer Orc head with the cap on makes the perfect bonce for a Bad Moon Ork,” Dan says. “I’m currently on a big bitz swap to get more so I can make a Mob.”
|  |
21 POINTING RAT
This little rat on the Rat Ogre sprue has drawn Dan’s attention this week. “He’s the perfect familiar for a Skaven character,” he explains. “I like the idea that he’s annoying his master by giving unwelcome ‘advice’ in a whiny, high pitched voice.”
|  | 22 HOUR GLASS
While egg-timers are very handy in the kitchen, Empire Flagellants carry hourglasses for a far grimmer reason. For them, they are a memento mori, a reminder of their own mortality. For an Empire Flagellant, it is always a quarter to death.
|  |
23 THE ROAD TO NOWHERE
The Warhammer Giant kit features this wonderfully morbid road sign. “It’s a brilliant piece for a unit diorama,” says Dan, who has one hidden in one of his Empire units. “It would also look great in the Warhammer 40,000 universe too, with ‘REPENT’ written on it in big letters. It also makes for a really rubbish job for any misbehaving skeletons in your Vampire Counts army.”
|  | 24 DEAD ORC
Everyone loves a dead Orc. This one comes in the Hunter Orcs on Fell Wargs box and makes a great addition to a base or a piece of scenery. It could even be used as an objective in a game, though who’d want to fight over a mouldering Orc is a mystery…
|  |
25 CAGED GOBLIN
Just one glance at this bit leaves you in no doubt as to how the Dwarfs value a Goblin. “Taking a caged Goblin down into the mines might make sense, but it’s very cruel,” says Rebecca. “Still, it’s one way to pay off a grudge, I suppose.”
|  | 26 SMASHED SKULL
For most warriors, a hole the size of a fist in the front of their face would be a problem. Not so for this Skeleton Warrior, whose head is now 20% roomier than it used to be. Perfect as a Skellie’s head, it also looks great littering a model’s base.
|  |
27 BABY DRAGON
It may look cute, but this tiny dragon could still toast your face off if you got too close. Found in the High Elf Dragon kit, it’s an excellent addition to a model’s base or a unit diorama and would make an ideal familiar for an Elven Wizard.
|  | 28 MILLSTONE
This millstone is actually a Giant-sized necklace, the ideal fashion accessory for the discerning Warhammer monster. It also looks great adorning a large model’s base or even as an alternative wheel on a Goblin war machine.
|  |
29 TROPHY SPIKE
We’re all fans of marking our victories here in the bunker, and this trophy spike from the Dark Eldar Raider is a cracking example. Our favourite bit? The skull with bionic eye still attached.
|  | 30 THOUSAND SONS HEAD
Found in the Thunderwolf Cavalry set, this helmet is a reminder of the Space Wolves’ hatred for the Thousand Sons. Sadly there’s nothing grisly inside, just some dust and a few cobwebs.
|  |
31 POINTING HAND
A favourite appendage of Space Marine Sergeants everywhere, the pointy hand is found in the Tactical squad kit. It’s the preferred accessory for Sergeants who want to point out objectives or targets to their battle brothers.
|  | 32 CHEEKY NURGLING
This impish Nurgling can be found in the Plaguebearers kit. He makes for a characterful addition to any Chaos unit, epitomising Nurgle’s sense of humour. Some say following the miserable Plaguebearers around is a bum deal, but he’s clearly loving it.
|  |
33 HELMETED SKULL
This little gem is from the Empire Greatswords kit. We reckon it’s the skull of a long-dead comrade they can’t quite let go of. It’s also a really good head for a champion in a regiment of Skeleton Warriors.
|  | 34 DEATH'S HEAD
Nurgle’s followers often carry a Death’s Head, a stitched-up head filled with vile diseases. They have been known to use them as putrid grenades that burst on impact, showering their target in bilious gunge. These ones can be found on the Plaguebearers kit.
|  |
35 CHAOS KNIGHT HEAD
Perhaps the most impressive helmet in the Chaos Knights box (and there’s a lot of them), this is the talk of the bunker. Word is that behind each of the ominous holes in this helmet there is a different eye.
|  | 36 A FISTFUL OF SPACE MARINE
Often we pick our Bit of the Week based on its versatility or potential for conversions. While this Space Marine head, held in Tyranid claws (and found in the Hive Guard kit) has plenty of both, what really wowed us was the amazing level of detail, from the exposed spinal column to the scar on the top made by the claw or the cracked glass of the right eye lens.
|  |
37 LOCK BOX
This sturdy treasure chest comes in the Ogre Ironblaster kit and is the perfect accessory for modelling objective markers, especially for gold-hungry armies.
|  | 38 DAEMON EFFIGY
The Chaos Warshrine includes this disturbing Chaos effigy. We’ve been assured by the sculptors that it’s a statue, but here in the bunker we get the uncomfortable feeling it’s actually alive. In fact, it’s watching you right now…
|  |
39 CONTROL PANEL
Located within the Ork Big Gunz kit, this control panel is a wonderful example of hi-tech meets Orky ingenuity. We especially love the missing buttons on the keyboard and the pressure gauge.
|  | 40 HAND OF GODS
The Hand of Gods, carried by the Lizardmen hero Kroq-Gar, is surely one of the most technological gizmos in Warhammer. You’ll have it spare if you build the kit as a Skink Oracle or a Saurus Oldblood. But what to use it on…?

41 COMMISSAR BONES
Nork Deddog’s favourite hat sits atop a vox caster mounted on his shoulder. We’re not sure who the hat originally belonged to (presumably the owner of the skull it’s sitting on) but we’re sure he offers a cool head.
|  | 42 HEART IN THORNS
This banner top, a heart wrapped in thorns, is taken from the Eternal Guard kit. Following the shocking events in Warhammer: Khaine, it’s perfect for using on other units of Elves, especially those protecting the Everqueen…
|  |
43 TALKING BOOK
It’s a book. With a mouth. A talking book, you might say. In fact, did you know that all Black Library audiobooks begin life in precisely this way – as possessed copies of the handwritten original – before their frenzied screams are captured and transferred to CD and MP3? true fact.
|  | 44 PRIZE CUTLET
There’s nothing like fresh meat to buoy up the spirits of an Ogre on campaign. The problem with this lovely steak from the Mournfang Cavalry kit is nobody is quite sure what animal it’s from. We reckon it’s either from an Orc war boar or a Minotaur…
|  |
45 TARGETING SQUIG
We’ve been squabbling in the White Dwarf bunker for a while now about how a Targeting Squig works. Does it advise the Ork? Is it linked to the gun (it does have wires) or is its value only psychological? Either way, we love.
|  | 46 POWDER MONKEY
Powder Monkey – or Power Monkey, as he’s sometimes known – is found on the Empire Handgunners sprue. He’s sort of like a familiar for blokes with guns. Why should Wizards have all the fun? In fact, rumour has it, he used to be one.
|  |
47 MOON FACE
Okay, so it actually comes in two bits, but the Herald of Tzeentch’s moon face is so creepy we just had to feature it. A topic of hot debate, we’re always curious whether his pockmarked face is mid-way through waxing or waning.
|  | 48 GAS MASK
Bullgryns are big but gormless creatures. Give them a respirator mask and a pair of night-vision goggles, however, and they become a whole lot creepier. It also means you can no longer smell their breath, which is a handy bonus...
|  |
49 SKULL FACE
The Imperial Knight kit offers a choice of three face plates, and this is the most ominous. It marks out Knights of those houses aligned to the Adeptus Mechanicus and is deeply sinister.
|  | 50 SLEDGEHAMMER
The Imperial Knight kit offers a choice of three face plates, and this is the most ominous.
It marks out Knights of those houses aligned to the Adeptus Mechanicus and is deeply sinister
|  |
51 GRIM ELECTOR
Despite their status, it’s clearly not all banquets and parades for the Elector Counts of the Empire – check out the sunken eyes and bitter scowl on this head from the Empire General on Griffon kit. Clearly, times are not good. We fear there’s more to come.
|  | 52 STERN GUARD
Everyone loves a dour Space Marine, and there are few more popular in the White Dwarf bunker than this model from the Sternguard kit. The close cropped beard (perfect for going in a helmet), service studs and withering glare sets him apart as a leader of men.
|  |
53 DAEMON SHIELD
Valkia the Bloody’s shield is adorned with the still-living face of a Slaanesh Daemon. This toothy, many-eyed mug still tries to seduce nearby foes even as they strike at it with their swords. It’s even been known to give them a lick when they get too close.
|  | 54 THE 'GLOTTLING'
You’ve received the blessing of Nurgle and been transformed into a monstrous brute moulded in his image. What more could you want? That’s right, a Nurgling in your very own image, of course: meet the Glottkin’s ‘glottling’.
|  |
55 SCRAP PILE
If you are looking for a massive pile of discarded junk including notched swords, rusting cannon balls, battered armour plates, pillaged banner tops and unwanted wargear, then look no further! The scrap pile found in the Ogre Scraplauncher kit is the perfect conglomeration of miscellaneous junk, as salvaged by real life Gnoblars. This is a brilliant bit for dioramas when you need a heap of battlefield plunder. Our favourite parts are the pressure valve (it’s fun to imagine there’s a Steam Tank somewhere about to explode) and the half-hidden blunderbuss.
|  | 56 SUPPORT SYSTEM
The Riptide battlesuit kit comes with a host of strange gadgets. While the Imperium have yet to determine what they all do, we like to think this mini radar dish is a velocity tracker used to target enemy flyers.
|  |
57 BLUE HORROR
The miserable, sulking Blue Horrors of Tzeentch are found in the Flaming Chariot of Tzeentch kit. These glum Daemons also make great extras to spread about in your Daemons of Chaos army, ideal for accompanying Heralds and Daemon Princes into battle.
|  | 58 LIBRARIAN CHERUB
There is something undeniably creepy about the cyber-cherub that comes with the Space Marine Librarian. This vat-grown familiar is just what every Space Marine hero needs to accompany him into battle, reciting catechisms as bullets fly.
|  |
59 VALKYRIE PILOT
Flying goggles raised and atmospheric rebreather in place, this ice-cool Valkyrie pilot is clearly en route to dangerous skies. Popular for converting Imperial Guard tank crews and Inquisitorial henchmen, this head is one for all you eager converters out there.
|  | 60 RACK OF RIBS
Are your Ogres struggling to stave off their appetite until lunchtime? Do you need some meaty goodness to take on campaign? Look no further than the rack of ribs found in the Ogres kit. It’s the perfect bit of snack-related plunder for your next conversion.
|  |
61 RIPTIDE HEAD
The XV104 Riptide comes with a choice of three heads to put on your model – the remainder make great alternative heads for your other battlesuits. Not only do they provide a slightly different look, but they fit on Crisis Suits and Broadsides perfectly.
|  | 62 A GRAVE STONE
This unusual piece of graveyard architecture is found in the Spirit Hosts kit. With melting candles on top of it, complete with skull perched beside them, it’s ideal for adorning the base of models who dabble in the occult or daemonic.
|  |
63 GENESTEALER SKULL
This skull comes in the Genestealer kit and is the perfect accessory for decorating your bases if you’ve been crushing Tyranid players and want to show it. Our advice? Barter for it with your friends – the kit has two, so they are ripe for a bit of strategic swapping.
|  | 64 WARPSTONE RAT
Thanquol and Boneripper come with no less than 21 extra little rats in the kit and we love them. Our favourite is this tiny one clutching a chunk of warpstone with all the jealous enthusiasm of a starving man clutching a loaf of mouldy bread.
|  |
65 THE POWER AXE
The new Assault Squad released this week also includes this awesome power axe – based on the classic weapon from the 1990s. We love it.
|  | 66 VENUS MANTRAP
Death worlds are home to many exotic flora, including this, the venus mantrap found in the Catachan Heavy Weapon Team box. It looks great adorning a large base, mouth wide open waiting for its next meal.
|  |
67 SNAKES
Where the Lizardmen go, their reptilian allies follow, and so we find these piles and piles of snakes sneaking across the Bastiladon sprue. Perfect for a nasty basing surprise.
|  | 68 FLAMING RUNE
The flaming rune held aloft by the Dwarf Runesmith is an excellent component representing Wrath and Ruin. It's also a great piece to further your painting skills if you've got a burning desire to show off.
|  |
69 DAEMONIC HELM
Warp Talons are bizarre creatures, their bodies and armour warped by the dark influence of Chaos. This beak-like helm has been horribly disfigured, making us wonder just what the wearer’s head looks like underneath.
|  | 70 THE ROT SNOUT
The Plaguebearer blessed with this ragged snout is much loved in the White Dwarf bunker. The cunning look in his single eye gives us no clue whether putrid slurry travels up or down that trunk… and we’ve spent far too long speculating.
|  |
71 SKULL RACK
This impressive selection of bones and skulls is Murderfang’s trophy rack. If you build the kit as a Space Wolves Venerable Dreadnought or Bjorn the Fell-Handed, it’s a spare, and would make a corking trophy for any Space Wolf (or like-minded warlord).
|  | 72 OWL FAMILIAR
The Sylvaneth forests are home to many mystical creatures. Some, like Dryads, are vicious and full of rage. Others, like this three-eyed owl from the Treelord kit, are cunning and spiteful, waiting for just the right moment to strike.
|  |
73 TOP LOADER
The Datasmith in the Kastelan Robots kit has two heads, including this metal-clad noggin. The right side of his head incorporates a port for his data wafers so you can slot in battle doctrines. Imagine having one of those in your head…
|  | 74 DATA SKULL
The Space Marine Devastator Squad contains a servo skull with a data screen set into its back – the perfect item for relaying important targeting data, recording the findings of Inquisitorial investigations and many other uses.
|  |
75 ERADICATION RAY
Nothing says ‘certain death’ like a weapon with eradication in its name. This little beauty looks like a crazy, arcane gun, and it’s a spare part if you build your Tech-Priest Dominus with the volkite blaster instead.
|  | 76 OPUS MACHINA
The Imperial Knight Warden kit has lots of Adeptus Mechanicus symbols in it (including this beauty). If your Knight is Imperial-aligned these are brilliant extras to trade with any Cult Mechanicus and Skitarii collectors you know.
|  |
77 GHAL MARAZ
If you’re looking for a world-splitting weapon, this one hits the nail squarely on the head – the Celestant-Prime kit includes two Ghal Maraz arms. The only question is which model in your collection is worthy of claiming it?
|  | 78 ATTACK RAT
This armoured rat is an option in the Skaven Grey Seer kit – a vicious, verminous attack critter who can fight for his master. Of most obvious use to Skaven collectors, who knows where else this cunning ratty spy might turn up?
|  |
79 SPOTTING SCOPE
An optional extra in the Empire Engineer kit, this charming telescope is just the ticket for spying on your enemies from afar. Sigmar’s finest will covet it for the engraved Sigmarabulus icon, while others will marvel at its seemingly magical gaze.
|  | 80 SHELL CASINGS
Lurking within the Ork Flash Gitz kit are several strips of ejected shell casings, perfect for making your shootiest gunz look like they’re letting off a volley. If you’re making a diorama with some shooting, check them out.
|  |

81 SHOKK’D Goblin
There’s something about the Goblin being sucked into the Shokk Attack Gun we just love. If it’s cruel to find joy in the abject terror on his face, his desperately grasping hands and the fact his loin cloth is being pulled down, sorry.
|  | 82 SCARABS
The Tesseract Vault is covered in Canoptek Scarabs, but did you know that 40 of them are separate components, perfect for bases and dioramas? We think the Scarab on the left is one of them. Or is it one of the ones on the right…?
|  |
83 SHAS’VRE HEAD
There are two heads for the Ghostkeel’s shas’vre – this is the head for the female pilot. Whichever head you choose for your Ghostkeel pilot, the spare would look great on a Fire Warrior, Pathfinder or Tank commander conversion.
|  | 84 DRONE CONTROLLER
Having a Drone or two to back up your battlesuits can be the difference between victory and defeat – and that’s what the Drone controller ensures. A spare in the Stealth Team and Ghostkeel kits, never go to war without one.
|  |
85 MOHAWK
The heroic warriors of the Space Wolves Chapter are famed for their unkempt locks and fearsome beards. The head shown here, found in the Space Wolves Pack has a super-sized mane for when a lesser mohawk will not do.
|  | 86 GOLDEN ANGEL
This lustrous icon is found in the Blood Angels Terminators boxed set. The little angel in question (is it Sanguinius himself?) is clutching a grail, almost certainly full of blood, figurative or otherwise. Best get an XS Artificer Layer brush.
|  |
87 CELESTIAL BEACON
The Knight-Azyros’s magical lantern can unleash the power of Sigmar to burn away the creatures of Chaos. It’s also a spare part (complete with hand tohold it) if you make the model as a Knight–Venator instead. Perfect if you need one of your models to lead the way in dark places!
|  | 88 ANGRY HEAD
Skarr Bloodwrath is a terrifying daemonic berzerker, and he also comes with two heads. This is the ‘other’ one. If you’ve got it spare, it’d make a tremendous head for a Bloodreaver or Blood Warrior, or even a Chaos Space Marine.
|  |
89 LEGION VEXILLA
Considered the pride of the Legion, a vexilla was a small personal standard carried within an Adeptus Astartes squad at the time of the Great Crusade and subsequent Horus Heresy. When the battle-brothers saw the vexilla nearby, they would redouble their efforts, fighting with ferocity, no matter how forlorn the cause appears. This tiny banner is found in the Betrayal at Calth boxed game. There are three in the set, enough for you to have one in each of the Legion Veteran Tactical Squads. Of course, if you don’t use it when you’re building your models, you’ll find it’s a good spare to keep on standby. Imagine how hard your men would fight to protect a 10,000 year old Legion relic?
|  | 90 FAMILIAR
Does this model look… familiar? It should – it’s the diminutive creature from the Sorceror Lord kit and the turn counter in Assassinorum Execution Force; the perfect sorcerer’s apprentice.
|  |
91 DREAD HEAD
Build your Nemesis Dreadknight pilot with a closed helm and this head is a spare. With a bonnet stuffed full of cables running into the skull, it’s full of conversion potential, a great head for a hero of the slightly bonkers kind.
|  | 92 SKULL FACE
The Culexus Assassin comes with an alternative skull mask, a chilling face seldom seen which would look great on Death Cultists and other sinister types.
|  |
93 MYSTERY KEY
This key comes in the Magmadroth kit and, depending how you build your model, might be spare. Its perfect for making one of your Fyreslayers look more prestigious. The only question is what does it open? A magma vault? A temple?
|  | 94 VILE VIAL
This ghoulish accessory, for the Acothyst about town, is one of the most disturbing items in the Dark Eldar Wracks kit, which is no mean feat. In the Dark City’s eternal game of plotting and scheming, it always pays to get a-head…
|  |
95 ICON OF GRIMNIR
The Fyreslayers Battlesmith carries this immense icon of Grimnir, cast in the image of their warrior god, with flaming hair, barbed beard and the ‘G’ rune of Grimnir glowing above its helm. An excellent icon for the top of any standard.
|  | 96 MAW-KRUSHA SADDLE
That’s right, there’s a saddle under the Megaboss’s mighty rump (but not Gordrakk’s – he doesn’t need one). We don’t think it’s there for sitting on, though, just to protect da boss’s nether regions from the Maw-krusha’s spines.
|  |
97 BIG, BIG GRIN
The face is a difficult part of your body to misplace, but this Skullreaper has carelessly managed to do so, leaving his skull exposed. Despite all this, he’s still got a big cheery grin. Probably because he doesn’t really have much choice in the matter.
|  | 98 PALTRY POULTRY
You wouldn’t think ogors would have much time for such tiny morsels, but apparently this chicken, from the Stonehorn kit, is a bit of a delicacy, and also a favourite of reader Nick Cooney, who wrote in to nominate it for Bit of the Week. We hear it tastes like gnoblar.
|  |
99 32 SKULLS
Skulls for the Skull throne! 32 of them, to be precise, which can be found in the new Sector Imperialis 25mm & 40mm Round Bases set. Scatter them on many different bases, start your very own skull pile or reunite decapitated skellies with their noggins. The choice is yours.
|  | 100 CAMO CLOAK
Scout Bikers and Scouts with Sniper Rifles come with a load of little extras on the sprue including rolled up camo cloaks that they tie down to the top of their armour. This one has been painted brown, but you could always try applying a camouflage pattern to it.
|  |
101 BERET HEADS
Everyone loves a good beret and the Tempestus Scions are no exception. The set includes nine heads wearing berets and some even have moustaches, too, like the Tempestor Prime below. Perfect heads for Astra Militarum conversions.
|  | 102 FLYING BLIND
The Warlock from the Hemlock Wraithfighter may look like he’s got no eyes, but they’re hidden behind his mirrored ghosthelm, enabling him to fly, shoot and commune with the dead all at the same time. Some multi-tasking skills!
