For ten thousand years, Mortarion, lord of the Death Guard, has crushed his enemies on the battlefield. Surrounded by screeching demonic mites, buzzing flies, and noxious plague fumes, Mortarion charges into battle with immense, creaking wings. The dull thud of these pestilent pinions fills the enemy with creeping dread, even as the stench of death wafts through their lines. Even standing in the presence of the Lord of Death is lethal, opponents suffocate and collapse as they succumb to the myriad plagues that churn the air around them.
This multi-part plastic kit contains the components necessary to assemble Mortarion, Daemon Primarch of Nurgle. This is an imposing model - the word "miniature" hardly does it justice, as it looms over the rest of the Death Guard and gives even the Bloodthirsters something to look up to. He is clad in baroque power armor known as the Barbaran Plate, which is covered in rust and rot, with skulls, spikes, and Nurgle symbolism on each of the thick components. Molded robes, chains, and a rotting hood hang from this armor, partially covering the plumbing system that feeds its respiratory system; It is safe to assume that this fan is not delivering fresh, clean air to Mortarion, but rather fel spores and disease.
He is armed with 2 disgusting weapons: a huge scythe called Silence, a rusty but sharp blade with brutal chain teeth, stained with the blood of worlds and capable of even tearing a Titan Reaver to pieces; and The Lantern, an ancient energy gun. There are two modeling options for these weapons: one option features the weapons next to Mortarion, the other features a much more aggressive pose.
Mortarion features enormous, decaying wings, patterned with pockmarks, holes and tears, representing the horror and decay of Nurgle's hordes. Speaking of Nurgle's hordes, there are plenty of extras with this kit: 2 Nurgling Drones carrying phosphex bombs hang from the chains of Mortarion's armor, with another 3 at the base: 1 carries an icon of Chaos, another waves a censer and another carries a tank of unmistakably horrible substances. The base itself is detailed with rocks that are being corrupted by the Daemon Primarch's foul presence.
Mortarion, Daemon Primarch of Nurgle comes with 78 components and is supplied with a Citadel 100mm round base.
