Marauder horsemen

Ok, I am wondering about these critters. Do they have chaos symbols modeled onto them? I understand the shields likely do but I mean on the actual riders and horses.
The reason I ask is I am thinking of using them as rough riders because I like the feral/barbaric look of them. Of course, they would not look good if they are covered with chaos symbols.
The picture of them on the GW site is bad for trying to tell this.
Likewise, do the models come with a "lance/spear" option or just the close combat swords and stuff? Would be nice to have both so I could magnatize flamers and meltas onto some spare arms to trade in and out as needed. I alreay have plenty of spare las-pistals.

I don't believe they have symbols directly on the model.

Step 1: Order Horsemen
Step 2: Check for Symbols
Step 2.theyhavesymbolsonthem: Order a dremel :)
Step 3: Make rough riders

Another great option is new Bretonians knights with Cadian bodies.

Cool deal guys, thanx. They will be one of my next purchases. Am expeting a M.O. in a trade and am hoping to have enough left over after getting my brakes done to get a box of these guys and a Russdemolisher tank. Want to make a punisher as well.

Yes, yes it is. But fortunately the link shows no splattering of anything unwanted on the riders.
