{"product_id":"mounted-onna-bushi-sai-3","title":"Mounted Onna-Bushi Sai 3","description":"\u003ch3 data-end=\"335\" data-start=\"298\"\u003eTokugawa Samurai – Rearing Sai Defender\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"1\"\u003eIn the unpredictable crush of a cavalry engagement, survival often depends on the ability to pivot and react in a heartbeat. The Onna-Bushi were masters of this fluid, close-quarters style of combat, using the defensive and trapping capabilities of the sai to deflect sudden threats before delivering a fatal counterstrike. This miniature captures a moment of intense, split-second reaction. The horse is pulling up hard, rearing on its hind legs to quickly shift momentum, while the rider twists sharply in the saddle to face a new danger on her flank, her weapon held at the ready to catch an incoming blow.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"2\"\u003eFor the hobbyist, a rearing mount always provides an exciting canvas because it fully exposes the draped barding and the dynamic, tense musculature of the horse. The rider’s armor offers a highly satisfying mix of textures, from the smooth, unadorned chest plate that practically begs for a sleek gloss finish, to the finely sculpted lacing on her shoulder guards and greaves. The patterned trim on the saddle blanket adds a touch of high-status detail, while her turned, sharply focused face gives painters an excellent narrative focal point that dictates the whole mood of the piece.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"3\"\u003eOn the gaming table, the elevated height of the rearing horse makes this model naturally stand out above a standard cavalry line. It is an exceptional choice for a unit commander, a flank guard, or a highly skilled bodyguard who needs to visually anchor a section of your army. Whether you are playing out a chaotic ambush scenario in an RPG or protecting the edge of your formation in a historical wargame, this figure brings a brilliant sense of spatial awareness and defensive readiness to the board.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003eHeight (32 mm): 53 mm\u003cbr\u003eHeight (28 mm): 47 mm\u003cbr\u003eHeight (32 mm heroic): 58 mm\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp data-end=\"768\" data-start=\"489\"\u003eHeights are with base.
