{"product_id":"pandemic-destroyer-squad-build-kit","title":"Pandemic Destroyer Squad (build kit)","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe Pandemic Destroyer Squad arrives as a four-model physical resin build kit, sculpted with an exceptional level of grimdark detail and ready to assemble and paint straight out of the box. Supports have already been removed and surfaces cleaned, so you can get straight to the hobby the moment it lands on your doorstep. Each model measures 40mm from feet to eyes, giving these warriors a commanding presence on the tabletop.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis kit is built for variety. Across 38 unique parts you get 4 distinct bodies, 5 heads, 10 shoulder pads, and 19 hands and weapons, including corrupted claw arms, plague-encrusted firearms, spiked melee weapons, and a sinister staff. The sheer number of options means no two squads need ever look alike, and every model in your warband can feel truly individual. The bodies are heavily detailed with exposed ribbing, corroded plating, and organic growths that ooze character before a single drop of paint is applied.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned by DakkaDakka, this squad fits naturally into any grimdark force built around contagion, entropy, and relentless advance. The scale and bulk of each warrior makes them read clearly at arm's length on the gaming table, while the surface detail rewards close inspection and careful brush work.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWhether you are building a full corrupted warband or reinforcing an existing force, the Pandemic Destroyer Squad delivers the kind of modelling and painting satisfaction that keeps hobbyists coming back to the workbench.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cb\u003ePainting Guide: Pandemic Destroyer Squad (build kit)\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cp\u003eThese models reward a layered, organic approach.
