Warhammer 40000: Adeptus Custodes - Custodian Wardens

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 Shield-Captain. He is clad in spectacular, expertly-crafted auramite power armour – this is covered in finely sculpted sigils of the Emperor, with Imperial eagles, lightning bolts, gemstones and filigree covering every surface. The Shield-Captain is armed as standard with with castellan axe and misericordia – he can replace the axe with a guardian spear. Specific helmet plumes, shoulder pads and thigh plates included in the kit make the Shield-Captain distinct from the other Custodian Wardens.

As well as the Shield-Captain, the kit also makes 4 Custodian Wardens, or 3 Custodian Wardens and a Vexilus Praetor. The Custodian Wardens can also be armed with a choice of guardian spear or castellan axe, along with balistus grenade launcher and misericordia. The Vexilus Praetor carries a splendid ornate vexilla.

This kit comes as 78 components, and is supplied with 5 Citadel 40mm Round bases.
