Miniatura Warhammer 40k, Games Workshop, Drukhari Talos

The Talos Pain Engines are seen as the pinnacle of the Haemonculi’s art. Creations of mad genius, each one is part organic and part mechanical, festooned with surgical apparatus and horrible-looking weapons of war.

Only the sickest minds could have created the bewildering Talos Pain Engine. From hooks to chains, to fat curved and serrated blades, there is an eye-watering array of barbaric implements. Within the armoured, shell-like carapace and scorpion-like aesthetic lurks a muscular beast that has been somehow blended with machine in the most horrific manner.

This multi-part plastic kit contains 89 components with which to make one Drukhari Talos Pain Engine or one Cronos Parasite Engine. The box includes all manner of features: chain-flails, ichor injectors, a liquefier gun and many syringes, as well as several variant heads and arms. It is a remarkably macabre addition to any Drukhari collection.
