Games Workshop: Warhammer 40,000 - Astra Militarum - Sly Marbo

This multi-part resin kit contains the components necessary to assemble Sly Marbo, a legendary, highly decorated Imperial Guardsman. This is a model that oozes manliness, from the rippling muscles under his tank top to the cigar being chomped in his impressively-jawlined mouth. His outfit is minimal – no armour for this son of Catachan, it just gets in the way – with just combat boots, (tight) trousers and the aforementioned tank top along with a load of straps, pouches and explosives. He carries a rather distinctive ripper pistol, which fires hails of armour piercing rounds capable of taking down the largest of Orks, and a Catachan fang – this is ostensibly a knife, but honestly is more of a machete covered in deadly toxins.

Sly Marbo’s base features some excellent little details – he’s jabbing his Catachan fang into the head of a departed Ork, while a sinister carnivorous plant moves to press the plunger on some explosives behind him (not that a mere detonation would affect Sly Marbo too badly.)

This resin model comes as 8 components, and is supplied with a Citadel 32mm Round base. Rules for fielding Sly Marbo are included in the box.
