Huron Blackheart Brings His Red Corsairs To Warhammer 40K Soon
December 29, 2025 by brennon
Games Workshop revealed a new miniature on Christmas Day for the Grimdark Sci-Fi world of Warhammer 40,000. Huron Blackheart will be returning with a brand new 28mm scale plastic miniatures alongside his Red Corsairs to terrorise the galaxy.
Huron Blackheart // Warhammer 40,000
The Tyrant of Badab and the Lord of the Maelstrom, Blackheart, grew tired of the Imperium after the events of the Badab War and rebelled against them in one of the most significant conflicts of the Warhammer 40,000 world after the events of The Horus Heresy. Lufgt Huron became Huron Blackheart and at the head of the Red Corsairs, he now plunders the galaxy, seeking to cause ruin and destruction wherever he goes.
He is portrayed here with a new plastic miniature which represents what was left of him after half of his body was vaporised by a melta blast! His face was mutilated and his power armour all but ruined but if nothing else, it seems like it has made Blackheart all the more terrifying. He now weilds the Tyrant's Claw, ready to cut his way through all enemies in his way.
Huron Blackheart - Details // Warhammer 40,000
No one is fully aware of just how he survived his horrendous wounds but he is now more fearsome than he has ever been and seeks to crush the Imperium and those lapdogs that serve the Corpse Emperor. Games Workshop revealed that he will also come alongside miniatures that will represent his command team, giving you a great selection of miniatures for theming a Red Corsairs army on the tabletop.
I would imagine that Huron Blackheart might end up setting his sights on the 500 Worlds campaign that Games Workshop has brewing in the background. I wouldn't put it past other famous faces appearing in the mix, too. A certain Aeldari Corsair called Prince Yriel seems an apt space pirate to set against the schemes of Blackheart.
What do you make of the new Huron Blackheart?

Ok, I am trying to be positive here but that thing looks just “meh”. Foot on rock, mandatory creature at the side but this looks nothing like a “high level character”. This looks so boring and generic. How could he have survived and be so flocking clean? Meh I say. Meh!
Very generic, very meh. Holey cape but perfectly clean?
I want to like this, there’s some interesting bits, I quite like the face and the claw and some of the additional decoration, but otherwise, another boring generic space marine pose with extra gribbly bits.
Foot on giant rock with additional skull, unnecessary wavy cape full on holes for no reason when there’s perfectly clean armour (clearly made of tefal).
I agree with sundancer, Meh!
I don’t like the rock, but, and I don’t know if it is intentional but is very similar to the Forgeworld Huron’s model rock… though the simalrities end there. I was really looking forward to this model but it is a bit “Meh” as Sundancer points out. I could be being overly negatve but it reminds me too much of any other and every other Chaos Marine.
I think the rock needs to be replaced with a surfboard.
Flocking brilliant! XD
Never was a fan of Huron, and the new one doesn’t do it for me either. Meh is being generous.
I think if there was no foot on rock people would be upset it was missing
true, but it wouldn’t be me! XD
This feels a very underwhelming model.
Cannot help but feel putting this out as the big end of year reveal is GW trying to find how low the bar is to excite 40k fans
I have an old Red Corsair army and this does nothing for me.
