Some people don’t care for upgrade sprues, but honestly as long as they have good variety and are a reasonable price, they’re great for making characters and more interesting/veteran units.

They have stated in the article that there are 3 kits: one with just the upgrade sprue, and 2 with the tactical upgrade + the command upgrade + 5 marines (each mark of armour). Nice to just get the upgrade sprue to throw on an assault squad to have a full 9 man command + 1 leftover to kitbash into a character, or 2 sky-hunter squads to make a 5-man command squad and 1 leftover bike to convert a praetor.

I particularly love the chapter themed contemptor torsos. Really brings out the iconic looks for the bigger flatter surfaces

Never thought about that connection to the frame of the body on mono pose and how the arms/weapons are designed correctly for those poses. I realize I have seen it and know it already to an extent. But seeing it described like this is actually very informative. Nicely done ! Cadian sprue was phenomenal compared to the previous marine and guard sprues I've owned. Excited to see the next space wolves sprue !!!

I fricking love upgrade sprues

That banner with the snake constricting the eagle is beautiful, I'm definitely getting this for my Night Lords and a squad of the new mk4 when they release.

Bodies and pads for my Black Legion, banner for my Ultramarines, shields for my Vanguard Veterans, heads for my Bladeguard, power swords for Intercessor sargeants. This is like a kit made personally for my kitbashing needs.

This is a really nice kit, I will definitely be picking it up! I am a fan of upgrade sprues if they are reasonably priced! Hoping they come out with updated plastic MKIV marines soon! Always enjoy your videos your opinions are well laid out keep it up :)

Upgrade sprues are some of the best things to happen. I get it you may be paying a premium to upgrade your guys from a base kit but it's a good solutions to give everyone more variety

I wish they'd bring back stuff like upgrade torsos but I understand that they can't really do that with the monopose guys

I'm glad they're doing them, I'm always a little worried the Suits will go "why don't we just make them all the blue ones on the box and forget about the rest to save money" so any options to customise and improve the look of your dudes is welcome

Honestly these are helpful for 3D-printing as well-marine bodies usually turn out fine but weapons, some heads, and arms can often fail to print correctly…

my brother in christ this uppgrade kitt would work on the old models before they went for the mono-pose design. im just sad it didnt come with 1 or 2 bodys / backpacks

These are good upgrade sprues, but are they truly *better* than say the old Black Templar upgrade sprue? Or the sprue you get the Ravenwing Bike Squad? The models themselves are a higher quality, and I do think these are nice, but these aren’t that ground breaking? That said, I will be scooping this one up.

nice point of view!

I wish they were doing the legion uprages in plastic too, the blood angels and sons of horus ones look so good its a shame they're in resin

as a gsc player i love upgrade sprues i need more

The problem with the DA Upgrade is in my opinion you have still only 5 intercessor shoulders. If thy put 10 in it this kit would be perfect

Truly a rare GW W moment.

Support your 3D printing small business. You can get tons of custom bits and upgrades gw don't make.
