Games Workshop 01-21 - Warhammer 40,000 - Adeptus Custodes: Shield Captain

A hard-hitting leader for your Adeptus Custodes

Armed with a Pyrithite Spear, containing a melta weapon, and protected by a Praesidium Shield

Lead from the front, taking on even the deadliest foes in single combat

Shield‑Captains are among the greatest warriors in the Imperium. No matter which weapons they wield, they display absolute mastery of them. Their tactical and strategic abilities are superlative, and they read the ebb and flow of a war at a glance before directing their forces accordingly.

This multipart plastic kit builds one Shield-Captain for your Adeptus Custodes, a potent leader and hero among heroes, armed with the melta-equipped Pyrithite Spear, and a Praesidium Shield sculpted with a magnificent eagle. As befitting their rank, they are bedecked in braided cords, pteruges, sigils, and embellishments, making them an absolutely stunning miniature for painters in addition to a vital gaming piece to lead your armies. You'll find both a bare and helmeted option for the head, though the crest of their office is mounted to their armour, whichever you choose.

This kit contains 21 plastic components, and a Citadel 40mm Round base. This miniature is supplied unpainted and requires assembly – we recommend using Citadel Plastic Glue and Citadel Colour paints.
