Games Workshop Warhammer 40,000 Death Guard Deathshroud Bodyguard 3-Model Set

The Deathshroud Bodyguard is a multi-part plastic miniature kit for the Warhammer 40,000 tabletop wargame, representing an elite unit within the Death Guard faction. These warriors serve as the personal guardians of the Primarch Mortarion, swollen with the corrupting power of the Chaos God Nurgle. The set allows hobbyists to assemble three distinct, impressively large models that tower over standard infantry, each embodying the themes of decay, pestilence, and grotesque resilience characteristic of Nurgle's followers. Each Deathshroud Bodyguard is armed with a massive manreaper battle scythe and a plaguespurter gauntlet, a weapon that spews diseased filth. The kit consists of 51 detailed components, offering extensive customisation with seven variant heads, including both helmeted and bare options. The models are densely covered in thematic details such as rust, boils, chips in their armour, protruding tentacles, and bloated flesh, all partially concealed by tattered cloaks. An additional plaguespurter gauntlet is included to optionally model a unit Champion wielding two of these weapons. The kit is supplied with three 40mm Citadel round bases. This set is designed for Warhammer 40,000 players and miniature painting enthusiasts looking to expand a Death Guard army with a visually striking and rules-effective elite unit. The large size and high level of detail make them a rewarding project for modellers of intermediate skill, offering plenty of opportunities for creative painting techniques to showcase decay, corrosion, and other Nurgle-themed effects. Once assembled and painted, they serve as a formidable centrepiece unit on the tabletop.
