{"product_id":"sermith-the-guardian-giant","title":"Sermith the Guardian - Giant","description":"\u003cp\u003eForgotten Champions rise from the ash and ruin of a dying world, and none stand taller than Sermith the Guardian. A colossal warrior clad in ornate plate armour, Sermith looms over the battlefield with a massive two-handed blade raised across one shoulder and a cracked round shield gripped in the other. Sculpted by Haito, this single-miniature set draws deep inspiration from giant warrior archetypes, delivering a figure that commands attention on any tabletop.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe detail on this resin model is exceptional. Layered pauldrons, chainmail beneath the gorget, and a flowing tattered coat suggest a veteran who has endured countless campaigns. The base is scattered with skulls, reinforcing the grim toll this guardian has extracted from those who dared to stand against them. Standing at approximately 75mm to the top of the blade, Sermith makes for a striking centrepiece or elite combatant in any skirmish warband.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned for collectors and competitive players alike, this Forgotten Champions release fits seamlessly into grimdark fantasy and dark age sci-fi settings. Whether fielded as a boss encounter, a named hero, or a looming threat, Sermith the Guardian earns a place at the heart of your force.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSupplied as a single unpainted resin miniature.
