How do!
It’s that time of year.
Obligatory Warboss Kurgan link, covering all previous ones, solved and unsolved.
And here we go with the first of 2026.
I’m thinking something Orky, myself.

Blessings be upon the 2026 engine.
I wonder if it's something linked to that flamethrower rumour engine from a few weeks back that we all assumed was Cities of Sigmar or similar.

Could be some kind of steampunk bit for the rumoured Cogforts (which is what I think the flamethrower was from too).
Not impossible it's something for 40k Orks either I guess.

It’s a bit too neat to be Orks; most of their hoses have stitching or patches, etc.

Solid chaos vibes.
What scale do we think? Marine size? Dread? And game scale? Epic or normal?

Definitely not Epic Scale. The tubing, even for Titan Scale looks too well defined.
Beyond that? Hard to say.

Outside chance however it could be a corrupted Titan weapon tail. Very outside chance though. Albeit one I’d love to be wrong about.

Utilizing Careful Highlighting
|
Given the size of the pitting/denting, I'm going to say this flail head is for an infantry-sized 40K/Heresy model as opposed to a dred or titan.

I'm going Necron. The flail sections look to me like some of the tentacle/ tendrils on some of the Necron models.

For absolutely no discernible reason i say Chaos, and i have a hunch that it (and some of the other recent enginen offerings) represents the first forays into DarkMech/Vashtorr-aligned territory, possibly by way of Iron Warriors.

Is that a shaft or a mechadendrite? It seems to be curving a bit. If the latter, it could be part of something huge... and you know what the only chaos model is with a mechadendrite flail? Defiler. Which I'm pretty sure we've heard rumours of of being resculpted.

We're supposed to be getting Huron's crew and some other renegades, right? Maybe it's one of those dudes in that silhouette picture? Chaos Marine Flail is a good guess.
Edit: Could it be hanging off the belt of one of these guys and not seen in the picture?

The the shape of the haft/links is reminiscent of this fella.

Not a direct match of course.

My bet and hope is either helbrute or defiler.
The mechadendrite part looks exactly like the toung of the maulerfiend.

The rifle that the guy on the far left is holding looks an awful lot like the one we all thought was going to be for a new Kroot model. The Londaxi style weapon, I'll go see if I can find a pic...
