A howl of outrage was heard across the galaxy when it was announced that the Dark Angels would be getting their Mark VI upgrade kits to pre-order on Friday. Fortunately, we were able to distract the Space Wolves with a crate of mjød while we tracked down some pictures of their own upgrades.
Despite what their enemies might claim, there are definitely wolves on Fenris, home planet of the VI Legion. So it makes sense that the Iron Priests would design some helmets that look like snarling wolf heads! Of course, for those who prefer the topknot and beard look,* there’s a bare head too – and even a classic combo of helmet and top knot!
Of course, the Vlka Fenryka wouldn’t want a top knot on every helmet, unlike those ostentatious biker boys in the White Scars.
The sons of Russ are also getting a set of snazzy shoulder pads featuring the Legion’s symbol. It’s the perfect way to finish off your Space Wolves.
The Space Wolves upgrade sets will be available to pre-order soon – sign up for the Forge World newsletter to learn exactly when they’ll be available. In the meantime, grab a Legion MKVI Tactical Squad so you’ll be ready to upgrade them in the finery of the VI Legion.
* We can neither confirm nor deny whether the Space Marines wearing helmets also have beards.
