Metal Warhammer 40K Rogue Trader Space Marine Brother Harris aka Bolter 13
This guy was first seen as Brother Harris, and later as Bolter 13 which was part number 070106/3.
He’s a 1987 sculpt and was shown on pages with minis sculpted by either Aly Morrison or Mark Copplestone – I’m not sure which of those two sculpted this fellow. The sticking plaster across his nose is a lovely touch.
He shares most of his sculpt with Marine Medic 01 from 1987.
