Warhammer 40K 1/18 Scale Adeptus Custodes Custodian Guard with Sentinel Blade and Praesidium Shield

"These men are my bodyguards, their lives forfeit to the guarantee of my physical safety. Of their loyalty to me there shall be no question nor doubt. I, and I alone, shall have the authority to stand in judgement over them. No other commander shall they have in battle nor in service. None shall bar them from me and none shall hamper or stall their mission. So it is decreed!"

The Adeptus Custodes, known as the Legio Custodes during the era of the Great Crusade and Horus Heresy, is the Imperial adepta responsible for protecting the Imperial Palace and the physical body of the Emperor of Mankind, as well as serving as His most important emissaries, His companions, and the keepers of His many secrets. The Custodes is an elite cadre of genetically-engineered transhuman warriors who are even more potent in combat than the Adeptus Astartes. They are to the Space Marines as the Emperor is to His primarchs, and it is rumoured that each was created by the Master of Mankind personally. His might permeates them, burns in their eyes and flows through their veins as surely as their blood. As such, the Adeptus Custodes are widely regarded as the deadliest warriors in the galaxy, Human or otherwise.

The Sentinel Blade is a Power Weapon shaped as a broadsword of daunting size, so large its hilt is flanked with the double barrels of a Bolt Caster that can lay down a hail of short-range fire. It is a common melee weapon used by the Custodians of the Adeptus Custodes, the praetorians of the Emperor of Mankind. It is a testament to the strength of the Custodians that they can wield these powered blades one-handed.

A Praesidium Shield is a unique piece of wargear utilised exclusively by the Adeptus Custodes, the elite guardians of the Emperor of Mankind. These formidable shields were first developed sometime during the Unification Wars in the 29th Millennium. They were the ornate precursors to the later Storm Shields utilised by the Legiones Astartes, and millennia later, their counterparts of the Adeptus Astartes in the 41st Millennium. A Praesidium Shield is forged from all but indestructible layered Ceramite and resilient alloys reinforced with built-in energy field generators.
