Warhammer 40K Adeptus Mechanicus: Sydonian Skatros

A Sydonian Skatros is a sinister cybernetic sentinel, stoic and unmoving until the moment an enemy strays into range of their huge rifle. Mechanical, stilt-like limbs allow them to traverse hazardous terrain and survey the environment, shrouded by a smog of incense-exhaust. With protocol-driven precision and an advanced scanner known as the achillan eye, they lock on to their foes' weakpoints and unleash pinpoint fire that sows panic and agony – all the better for eroding enemy morale.

This multipart plastic kit builds one Sydonian Skatros, an augmented sniper created by the Adeptus Mechanicus. This Skitarii sharpshooter can be armed with one of two long-barrelled guns – a radium jezzail, which fires radioactive bullets that pierce armour and poison flesh, or a high-powered transuranic arquebus. Each weapon comes with its own bionic loader-arm, as well as an ammunition pack for the Skatros' belt, which sports a holstered pistol for closer foes.

The kit also includes a choice of two different headset designs for the Skatros – a sinister mono-visor, or a pair of staring goggle-lenses – which can be worn over their cyborg facemask or pushed up onto their forehead.

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