The original Sly Marbo model is no longer available, but the plastic Catachan Jungle Fighters kits do have enough parts to make him, as you can see demonstrated here. This model was converted and painted by one of our talented Hobby team members.And because you all asked so nicely, here are some rules to use him in games of Warhammer 40,000. Have fun!

WestRider Posted May 4, 2017 Report Share Posted May 4, 2017 That conversion actually looks way better than the official Model for him did. Like a Shadow is kind of cool, but without the Demo Charge, he's not worth much. At least they dropped him down to 25 Points. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
generalripphook Posted May 4, 2017 Report Share Posted May 4, 2017 That mastery of ambush is a nice little buff. Won't do a huge amount but making folks roll dice when moving into good cover matters. Especially if an objective is in there. I could see that being a tactic. Boobytrap terrain with an objective. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WestRider Posted May 4, 2017 Report Share Posted May 4, 2017 Oh, and don't get me wrong. I think he's probably worth the 25 Points and the Elites slot. It's just a little disappointing compared to his One Man Army Datasheet for SW:A. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sugarlessllama Posted May 4, 2017 Report Share Posted May 4, 2017 Well if every single model is going to get rules in 8th, I guess that would also include Mr. Marbo. Right? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Threejacks Posted May 4, 2017 Report Share Posted May 4, 2017 Nice to see him again,,but no Demo charge is pretty lame,,that was by far the funnest part of using him. Perhaps his next edition profile will properly equip him:) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Since you know, 8th has not been released yet. :p But it looks like the model will not be going out of production. And since the model is still in production, it will be getting rules in 8th.

The Model is out of production. They just show a conversion in the post. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PourSpelur Posted May 5, 2017 Report Share Posted May 5, 2017 Without the ability to sling around satchels of explosives like a drunken Shaq at the free-throw line, I have no desire to field Marbo... 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Munkie Posted May 6, 2017 Report Share Posted May 6, 2017 Cool to see he's got his disappear/re-appear shenanigans of olde back. No demo is a bummer though. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ish Posted May 13, 2017 Report Share Posted May 13, 2017 This is officially Guardsman Marbo's biggest kill to date. Sure, Calgar punched out an Avatar of Khaine... But Marbo killed an entire edition of the game. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
