Boss Snikrot $40

Boss Snikrot is no mere Ork cutthroat – he is a murderous legend whose obsession with guerilla warfare has seen him hone the kunnin’ taktiks of the Blood Axe clan into an almost supernatural mastery of infiltration. Snikrot is an unseen terror, leading his Red Skull Kommandos deep behind enemy lines – by the time his terrified foes realise he is upon them, the Boss is already opening their throats with his rip-toothed blades.

This multipart plastic kit builds Boss Snikrot, an infamous Kommando leader and Ork assassin. He’s armed with a pair of combat blades known as Mork’s Teeth, perfect for close quarters fighting behind enemy lines, as well as a custom silenced slugga. The kit includes loads of cosmetic details shared with Ork Kommandos, such as a backpack festooned with extra gear, a smoke grenade to decorate his base, and a choice of three head builds – one bare, one with Snikrot’s trademark night-vision goggles over his eyes, and one with the goggles lifted onto his forehead.

Commander Farsight $65

Aggressive and rebellious, Commander O’Shovah is an undisputed master of Mont’ka, the T’au metastrategy of the Killing Blow. Piloting his crimson battlesuit, he carves a bloody path into the enemy, leading his separatist Fire Caste forces from the front as he wields the enigmatic Dawn Blade with such strength and skill that no foe can stand against him.

This multipart plastic kit builds Commander Farsight, leader to the breakaway Farsight Enclaves of the T’au Empire. His custom XV-86 Supernova battlesuit features advanced technology that provides greater agility and mobility, allowing him to put his prodigious skills with the blade to good use. Farsight wields the mysterious Dawn Blade in one hand, with a plasma rifle and shield generator mounted to his other arm. This legendary figure’s wargear is loaded with details, from the ritual bonding knife strapped on his leg to the Farsight Enclaves icon worked into his shield’s surface. His heroic pose atop a dramatic scenic base make Commander Farsight an eye-catching centrepiece for any collection or army.

Lion El’Jonson $70

The First. The Son of the Forest. The Master of Caliban. The Primarch of the Dark Angels.

Lion El’Jonson stalks from mist-wreathed shadow realms like an ancient questing knight, hunting the galaxy’s myriad terrors. With his immense blade, Fealty, the Primarch cleaves apart the most heinous of monstrosities, while the Emperor’s Shield erupts in blazes of light and force in response to his foes’ savage blows.

This is a jaw-dropping miniature befitting the legendary status of a Primarch, striding over battlefield rubble in ornate, knightly armour adorned with personal heraldry and the symbols of the Dark Angels. He’s joined by a pair of mysterious Watchers in the Dark, and can be built with one of four different head options – a bare head, a hooded head, a crested helm, and a hooded helm.

This miniature makes an incredible centrepiece for any Dark Angels army. Painters will enjoy the level of detail and the different textures that make up his robes, armour, and weapons. Meanwhile, gamers will enjoy setting the Lion upon the enemies of the Imperium and proving his prowess as a duelist.

This kit comprises 43 plastic components, and is supplied with a 60mm Citadel Round base. This miniature is supplied unpainted and requires assembly – we recommend using Citadel Plastic Glue and Citadel Colour paints.
