Space Marine in Mk8 Errant Armour 2
This 1990 Space Marine in Errant Armour (Mark 8) can be found in the 1991 Blue catalogue as part number 070360/1. I can’t find a singular sculpting credit for him, but I’d be surprised if it was anybody but Jes Goodwin.
He came with a backpack, shoulder pads and bolter sprue.
