This imposing mechanical stalker combines the dread of Victorian deep-sea exploration with lethal steampunk weaponry. Standing at over 40mm tall, it features a classic riveted diving helmet head and massive three-pronged pincers, making it a terrifying addition to any tabletop encounter involving mad science or sunken mysteries.
A mechanical deep-sea sentry or a mutated experiment stands motionless, waiting for its next command or target.
This miniature is ideal as a guardian of an underwater facility, a mechanical enforcer in a steampunk city, or a malfunctioning laboratory experiment that stalks the party through tight corridors.
