Description
Background
Formerly the implacable and stoic Death Guard of the Emperors Legiones Astartes, these foul traitors fell to the worship of Nurgle and now exist only to spread disease and misery across the galaxy. Their plague-riddled brains and half rotting bodies have rendered them immune to pain, marching forward with the inevitability of decay.
Kit
This multi-part plastic kit contains the components necessary to assemble a 7-man squad of Plague Marines. Each is posed dynamically, with the usual Death Guard accoutrements – cracked, rotting armour revealing grasping tentacles, severed heads displayed proudly on belts, backpacks sloshing with unnatural diseases and pipework leading from rebreathers to Nurgle knows what foul concoctions. There’s an Icon of Despair included, so your unit can feature an icon bearer.
Included are 8 boltguns, 4 plague knives, 3 bubotic axes, a blight launcher, a plasma gun, a meltagun, a plaguebelcher, a heavy plaguespewer (with backpack), a mace of contagion, a great plague cleaver, a plague flail, a plasma pistol and a bolt pistol. There are 2 weapon options available for the unit Champion: a specific plaguesword and power fist, and there are a total of 16 bare and helmeted heads. 2 specific arms are included for a model holding a blight grenade, with one hand pulling the pin.
Contents
This kit comes as 146 components, and is supplied with 7 Citadel 32mm Round bases.

A truly fun kit to put together. If you are brave enough, you can get much more from the kit than the instructions suggest by making the most out of weapon loadouts.
You may need to readjust the odd arm joint or use a bit of greenstuff, but since these guys are Nurgle, even poorly executed sculpting fits in!
