56-55 Tau Empire: Kroot War Shaper

Kroot War Shapers are experienced battle leaders, responsible for both the composition and disposition of Kroot hunting packs in the field. They are also exemplary warriors in their own right, striding into battle armed with traditional weaponry that is no less deadly for its symbolic, antiquated natures. Under a War Shaper’s merciless gaze, prey quail while the kindred find renewed strength.

This multipart plastic kit builds a Kroot War Shaper, a skilled commander for the Kroot forces employed by the T'au Empire. This cloaked strategist carries a Shaper's blade and Kroot pistol at their belt, alongside a choice of paired traditional weaponry – either a double-ended bladestave and ensnaring preyhook, or a powerful dart-bow and vicious thrown tri-blade.

You'll also find cosmetic build options to personalise your War Shaper – two different heads, two designs of shoulder armour, and a spare pistol or quiver of arrows. As well as a perfect leader for any contingent of Kroot mercenaries, the War Shaper is an absolutely wonderful miniature for painters, loaded with different textures to showcase your skills.

This kit comprises 20 plastic components and a Citadel 32mm Round Base. This miniature is supplied unpainted and requires assembly – we recommend using Citadel Plastic Glue and Citadel Colour paints.
