Games Workshop Go Big with the New Knight Ruinator

Games Workshop have previews their new Chaos toys … and they’re BIG.

Revealed today on the Games Workshop website, the new Knight Ruinator and Knight Abominant are a pair of hefty ol’ Chaos Knights. Both share the same chassis, but each has different loadouts.

A large, imposing Chaos Knight model stands prominently, featuring a heavily armored chassis adorned with spikes and chains. The model showcases intricate details, including a skull motif on the chest and various weaponry, such as a large cannon and a spiked arm. The color scheme combines dark tones with metallic accents, and the base is decorated with small debris and grass, enhancing the overall menacing appearance.

These new Chaos Knights have been split into two boxes; both of these boxes contain the appropriate parts to build either a Knight Desecrator or a Knight Rampager, but one box includes the parts required for the Knight Ruinator, and the other for the Knight Abominant. Oh, and you’ll need the new datacards if you want to play with your new toys, not to mention the new Codex: Chaos Knights.

See the Games Workshop website for more details.
