{"product_id":"rat-clan-rat-mind-miner-miniature","title":"Rat Clan - Rat Mind Miner Miniature","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe Rat Clan brings its most unsettling operative to the battlefield with this physical resin miniature, the Rat Mind Miner, a hunched and wretched figure clutching a worn entrenching tool and braced against a heavy digging plate. Every detail tells a story of grim labour and frantic purpose, from the layered robes and dangling trinkets to the clawed feet and twitching posture of a creature that has spent too long burrowing through places no sane being would venture.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis miniature is supplied as a single physical resin model, already printed, with supports removed and surfaces cleaned ready for assembly and painting. It is scaled at 28mm from base to eye level, making it fully compatible with standard wargaming rulesets and basing systems. The sculpt captures the crouched, wiry energy of a tunnel specialist mid-dig, and rewards careful painting with rich textural variety across cloth, metal, leather, and skin.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWhether you are building a labour unit, a saboteur cell, or a character model for your skirmish warband, this Rat Clan figure adds immediate character and narrative weight to any collection. The shovel blade features riveted detailing and worn edges, while the figure's back shows pouches, armour plates, and gear that reward close attention during painting.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSold as one unpainted resin miniature.
