The Horus Heresy Legiones Astartes Saturnine Siege Dreadnought Ophion Plastic Kit

The Saturnine Siege Dreadnought Ophion is a multipart plastic model kit for Warhammer: The Horus Heresy tabletop wargame. It represents a towering war engine used by the Legiones Astartes during the galaxy-spanning civil war. Designed as a close-range combat variant, the Ophion configuration specialises in brutal engagements where its powerful weapons can devastate both armoured vehicles and infantry formations at short distances. The model captures the imposing scale and technological sophistication of these rare war machines, which were developed from the same principles as Saturnine Terminator armour. The kit comprises 213 detailed plastic components that allow for significant customisation. Builders receive four different sarcophagus options (including distinct Loyalist and Traitor-themed designs), three sets of armour plating, multiple head options, an optional halo accessory, and two sets of leg trim. This variety enables hobbyists to personalise their dreadnought to match their army's theme. The model features thick armour plating and advanced energy shielding, represented in the sculpt, which historically made these units exceptionally resilient on the battlefield. It comes supplied with a 100mm round Citadel base and is designed without Legion-specific markings, making it suitable for any Space Marine force regardless of allegiance. This kit is ideal for experienced Warhammer: The Horus Heresy players looking to add a formidable centrepiece unit to their Legiones Astartes army. Its focus on close-quarter weaponry makes it particularly effective in aggressive, forward-moving army lists. For hobbyists, it offers an engaging and complex building project with numerous options for personal expression through assembly and painting. The included transfer sheet, containing 528 high-quality waterslide decals with iconography for four Legions, provides further opportunities for detailed customisation and heraldry. As with all Games Workshop kits, it requires assembly and painting, offering a rewarding creative challenge for miniature enthusiasts.
