Beware Spiders & The Awoken Coming To GCT’s Bushido!
He would be dwarf sized, if he wasn’t standing on those steam punk legs of his. As a normal dwarf collector I would love to see this guy die lol.
Very nice looking figure.
This guy has just about comes close to being sci-fi that he might fit well into a forge father army.
“They’re into cross-breeding, mutations, wife-swapping, badger cuddling and rabbit fondling.”
Utterly. Freaking. Priceless. 😀
One of Mantic’s best models. I’m a big Abyssal Dwarf fan and the entire army range is quite good (for being evil). Did paint this guy up in obsidian armor and he looks quite amazing, buuuuut, the Half-breed is much better at nearly the same point cost.

Not a bad sculpt. I agree this is close to a sci-fi styled figure and with some slight modifications definitely a candidate for forge fathers character type figure.
love the pointing figure – OarSum!

Still… you could file off the spikes… 😉
I actually chipped his head and replaced it with one I liked better. Another time it was off with his legs to make an Overlord on Great Abyssal. Not all that hard to do and worth it. His armor is quite nice. To make him a bit less Sci-fi I chopped off the hose or coil on his left arm. It makes a big difference.
