The Thousand Sons occupied a peculiar position in 2nd Edition - you could take a small squad of 3-5 as a bodyguard for a sorcerer, or you could a regular squad of 3-10 with no option for a champion of any sort. Technically then, this "classic" line-up of 9 Thousand Sons and a sorcerer is two completely separate units. Most of them are built from the metal upgrade kit from the early 2000's, with a smattering of newer parts, and of course one of the original 1990 sculpts. The squad could take up to three special or heavy weapons, so this was a good chance to use some of the impressive modern flamers.
I have to admit, these were not a favourite unit to paint - a lot of very fiddly details to deal with. Still, I'm happy to have got them finished, and even happier to have completed my third OWAC!
They're neat, well done
