Description
Background
Volatile and prone to overheating, Plasma weaponry is rightly feared by both victims and operators of plasma weapons. The Space Marines however know no fear. Hellblasters are squads made up exclusively of Primaris Space Marines wielding potent and deadly plasma incinerators. Sending bolt after bolt of incandescent death towards the enemy lines, they can bring a burning death to any target on the battlefield.
Kit
This multi-part plastic kit contains the components necessary to assemble a set of 10 Primaris Hellblasters. Clad in Mk X Tacticus power armour, they eschew the complex variations of wargear many of their battle-brothers carry, preferring instead to focus on and specialise in a single-armament specialism – plasma.
The models can be assembled as either a 10-man squad, a squad of 9 Hellblasters with a Sergeant or 2 separate 5-man squads, each with a Sergeant of their own. The whole squad can be armed with a host of plasma weaponry – there are 10 plasma incinerators included, with the components required to turn any of them into an assault plasma incinerator or heavy plasma incinerator, depending on your preference. The assault and heavy variants feature alternate muzzles, ammunition flasks and different cabling attaching the weapon to the Hellblasters’ backpack. There are 4 incinerators which are being carried rather than aimed; you have the option to arm 4 Hellblasters with plasma pistols in the other hand.
A problem (some call it a bonus…) of plasma weaponry is its tendency to overheat; there are several optional components reflecting this. Bare head options featuring nasty burns are included for the Sergeant, and there are bionic arms included, heavily implying lost limbs in plasma accidents. There are also plenty of pistol holsters, reliquaries, grenade sets and purity seals included.
Contents
The Primaris Hellblasters come as 250 components, and are supplied with 10 Citadel 32mm Round bases and a transfer sheet.

I particularly enjoyed assembling this kit. X4 A5 sprues with the usual 10 models as described above. With plasma weapons.
Lots of choice on these. Loads of extra bits – heads/helmets, shoulder pads, holsters, pouches, medals etc
More choice over posing in this kit too than others. Thoroughly recommended!
