    Rogue Trader Metal Space Marine in Mark V Heresy Armour 0702707

    This guy is a 1990 sculpt, and appears in the 1991 catalogue as Mark V Heresy Armour 070270/7. The minis on his catalogue page are marked as “Designed by Jes Goodwin and the Citadel Design Team”, and I very much suspect that it’s a Jes Goodwin sculpt but I can’t find a singular credit for it in any catalogue.
