Shouldering a massive miniatures-scale burden with quiet resolve, the Saqr Guard v2 Miniature by Unit9 from We Print Miniatures is the embodiment of what happens when the promise of glory meets the weight of reality. This sci-fi miniature brings a deeply human tone to any futuristic battlefield, portraying a soldier who has seen too much to still believe in the mission but continues on because someone has to. Every element of the sculpt, from the heavy gear to the slouched stance, reflects the fatigue and persistence of a figure who is carrying more than just equipment.
Ideal for sci-fi tabletop games set in war-ravaged star systems, overcrowded urban zones or collapsing outer rim outposts, this model fits seamlessly into roles such as disillusioned foot soldier, worn-down security operative or grizzled squad veteran. The figure adds narrative weight to scenarios that focus on the personal costs of long-running conflict and the blurred lines between duty and survival. With tired body language and a loadout that looks more practical than heroic, the Saqr Guard v2 is a standout choice for players and hobbyists who appreciate realism in their miniatures.
Available in 28mm, 32mm, 35mm, 55mm and 75mm scales, this character offers hobby flexibility whether you're assembling a tactical unit for skirmish-level combat or creating a centrepiece for a campaign grounded in emotional storytelling. The armour is well-detailed, with enough surface variation to reward techniques like drybrushing, weathering and subtle shading. Paint schemes can be easily tailored to reflect a battered military division, a corporate peacekeeping force or an off-world militia barely holding the line.
True to Unit9’s design approach, the sculpt maintains a balance between clean sci-fi lines and expressive posing. There’s no need for overstatement here — the weight is already visible in the character’s frame. For storytellers, this miniature invites questions. What was lost along the way? What keeps them moving forward? And how much longer can they keep going?
If you’re building a force that reflects the long-term wear of conflict or a crew shaped by hardship rather than heroism, the Saqr Guard v2 brings authenticity and atmosphere to your tabletop. Sometimes, the most powerful figures are not the ones shouting orders, but the ones who simply refuse to fall.
