Apothecary

Amongst the most honoured Space Marines of a Chapter are its Apothecaries. It is their role to to mind the physical well-being of their battle-brothers – this is seen most obviously on the battlefield. where an Apothecary serves as an emergency medic. Their most important duty. though. concerns the dead; an Apothecary can harvest the progenoid organs from a fallen Space Marine. ensuring the creation of further warriors and the continuation of the Chapter.

This multi-part plastic kit contains the components necessary to assemble a Primaris Apothecary. Strikingly detailed. clad as he is in Mk X power armour. this miniature features far more accoutrements and gadgets than the standard Primaris Space Marine – as befits his battlefield role. Strung around the chest plate are several canopic jars. bearing purity seals: these are filled with progenoid organs that have passed his scrutiny. and will be used in the creation of further Primaris Space Marines. In his right hand he clutches a freshly-hewn organ upon which his gaze is fixed; another canopic jar hangs from his arm. ready. His left arm holds a narthecium. the grisly instrument of his craft. though this can be replaced with an optional absolver pistol (often the last thing a fallen brother will see…)

Adding to the detail and options of this kit are a selection of lamps and surgical inspection lenses. with a chainsaw. injector servo arm. drill and stapler amongst the possible modelling options. As a macabre narrative extra. a slain Space Marine is included with a huge incision made by the Apothecary's narthecium. to be added to the base.

The Primaris Apothecary comes as 28 components. and is supplied with a Citadel 40mm Round base. The kit also includes a Ultramarines-Character Transfer Sheet. which features Captain. Chaplain. Librarian and Lieutenant iconography.
