{"product_id":"rustlands-wolves-pack-leaders","title":"Rustland's Wolves - Pack Leaders","description":"\u003cp\u003eRustland's Wolves Pack Leaders are the four fighters who have already earned the right to point and be obeyed. Where the New Blood are still proving themselves and the Raiders are the muscle, the Pack Leaders are the ones who survived long enough to matter. Each figure stands at 32mm and arrives as a physical resin miniature with supports already removed and cleaned, ready to assemble and paint.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe squad covers a genuine spread of combat roles and character. A broad, bald bruiser in goggles and an open jacket carries a heavy assault rifle, a wolf pelt hanging from his belt and a gang emblem pressed into the back of his jacket. A lean, helmeted enforcer with spiked shoulder armour holds a pistol out in one hand and a serrated blade in the other, stripped to the waist and built like someone the Rustlands has not managed to kill yet. A powerfully built female leader carries a massive shoulder-mounted cannon with the kind of steady stance that says she has fired it before. The fourth figure wears a respirator and raised goggles, one arm ending in a heavy mechanical claw raised ready to close.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFive weapon parts are included: a rocket pistol, a knife, a plasma pistol, an auto pistol, and a steel pipe, giving real flexibility when it comes to arming the open-handed figures to fit your roster. Sculpted by 42studio, the Pack Leaders set is designed to sit at the top of the Rustland's Wolves range and serve as the commanding presence on your warband's frontline.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSupplied unpainted.
