Easily one of the most recognizable “Show only” Forge World miniatures, the Boarding Marine was recently on sale at Adepticon 2012. Today I’m unboxing the kit for you, and like I said, this thing is pretty sweet!
Recently in 2011 Forge World put out this model as a little bonus to show goers (maybe for standing in lines for seemingly ever, as well).
It was again available this year, at least on one occasion, at Adetpcion 2012, and I was finally able to get one!
