Necromunda’s New Nightmare in Resin

Vandoth the Fallen 2

When it comes to Necromunda, the underhive is full of names that inspire both fear and admiration. Some, like Kal Jerico, live for the thrill of the fight. Others, like Haera Helmawr, rule with an iron fist. But one name stands apart—Vandoth the Fallen. A legend whispered around gang fires, a nightmare that just became a terrifying reality with the release of his new resin miniature.

Who is Vandoth the Fallen?

Vandoth the Fallen

This walking slab of muscle and menace has been a mystery for centuries. No one knows where he came from, and those who claim to have seen him up close rarely live long enough to ask questions. Some believe he once served House Helmawr before being cast into the underhive. Others whisper that he’s not entirely human, though his relentless slaughter of Chaos cults might say otherwise.

One thing is certain—he doesn’t just kill, he annihilates. His ancient, oversized boltgun turns foes into red mist, and if anything remains, he’s been known to finish the job with his bare hands. Some survivors even claim Vandoth drinks the blood of his victims, though no one has stuck around to confirm.

Perhaps he is a long-lost Astartes on a Bloodquest? Given the profile above, and the fact he appears to have Black Carapace interfaces sculpted onto the model, he could very well be a Space Marine who fights on a different battlefield now.

Should You Add Vandoth to Your Gang?

Expect him to be both a wrecking ball and an unstoppable tank in your campaigns.
