Can someone give a quick rundown of the extras you get in the 2007 Chaos Marine box? Did they add the rest of the special weapons + PW/PF/HB/Champion bitz? That useless mutation sprue is gone?

The mutation sprue is indeed gone. There are two sprues which allow you to make 5 CSMs with the arms to make and combination of CC or Bolter weapons. Looks like 4 new heads and of the old ones. There is an assortment of knives and pistol holsters like the old sprues. I think there might be a couple new shoulder pads, along with a couple spikes (likely for adding to backpacks like termie banner poles). There is also an 8 pointed star bit that could be used as Icon I guess.

There is also a "special" sprue. There are a bunch of groups of 5 bits, presumably one for each god plus an Undivided: 5 banner tops (plus an arm holding a banner pole), 5 shoulder pads, & 5 heads. There are 2 plasma pistols, plus one each of melta, plasma gun, flamer, heavy bolter, power sword, and power fist. There is a trophy pole, the champion body from the last box (with the chainmail addition) as well as some other little bits (chains and blades).

Edit: I was looking at the 10 marine box, so there are 5 sprues total: one special, 2 of each of the others.

Thanks!
