Mark 3c

This is the latest stage of development of Terminator
armour and, again, is little more than a refinement of the Mark
3 series. Increasing reports of damage to the vulnerable hip joints
have prompted the inclusion of dedicated shields whilst the ever-important
chest plastron has again been modified. New advances in gyro systems
for balance are incorporated – the evidence for which can
only be seen by the small tubes that protrude at the suit’s
ankles. The wrist joints are also improved in their design. The
HUD module is now bigger to accommodate the increased array of
sensors and lenses that allow greater synchronisation between
the suit and the weapons.
Notes & Sources:
This recent overhaul of the Terminator design
brings it into line with progress made in appearance of the Space
Marines in general. The suit is now bigger and takes on the “Anime”
proportions bestowed on the rest of the range – longer legs,
wider shoulders and a bigger chest. The larger bases and plastic
component nature of the hard copies allows for more versatile
poses especially in the legs giving the suits more dynamism. The
hip shields are inherited from the new Grey Knight designs. Characters
in Mark 3c suits are available but no traitor versions have yet
appeared.
