*Adeptus Custodes: Shield-Captain on Dawneagle Jetbike 20% Off
The warriors of the Adeptus Custodes disregard the idea of blind
obedience, and look with disdain upon those who follow the orders of
their superiors without question. Every Custodian has a voice, and is
expected to use it; as such, the Ten Thousand respect only those who
have proved themselves worthy, whose judgment, strategic skill and
strength of mind have been shown again and again. Such Custodians are
called Shield-Captains, and their fellows follow them with loyalty and
dedication.
This multi-part plastic kit contains the components necessary to
assemble a squad of 3 Vertus Praetors, 1 of which can be assembled as
the Shield-Captain. Astride their Dawneagle jetbikes, they wear somewhat
less bulky armour than the other Adeptus Custodes warriors, in order to
maintain lightness – while they are still protected by auramite chest
plates, shoulder pads and helmets, they wear woven trousers, boots and
robes. The armour that they do wear is covered in finely sculpted sigils
of the Emperor, with Imperial eagles, lightning bolts, gemstones and
filigree adorning every surface, with the jetbikes they pilot featuring
similar details on the aggressively-shaped cowling. The Praetors carry
interceptor lances and misericordia, while the Dawneagle jetbikes are
armed with a choice of hurricane bolters or salvo launcher – whichever
you choose, they’re visible at the front of the vehicle, with the engine
and weapon feeds visible in gaps in the cowling. The controls feature a
large screen, with plenty of dials and buttons. The Shield-Captain is
distinguished by his bare head.
This kit comes as 111 components, and is supplied with 3 Citadel 75mm Oval stands, with flying stems.
