Kensei & Torii Welcome New Undead From Zenit Miniatures
December 12, 2016 by brennon
Zenit Miniatures has got a few new releases on the way this month which will help to bolster your forces in both Kensei and Torii.
Leading the way we have two strange creatures that have been summoned up from the depths for different reasons. First we have the Taisho above who long ago was probably a noble warrior, and now a servant of evil spirits.
He's joined by this terrifying creation...
The Tenome looks like the creature from Pan's Labyrinth but then again that was probably based on this eye-less fellow. Here's an account talking of the creature which makes you almost feel sorry for it...
"...some time ago in Echigo a blind man was killed by a bandit. Before death he saw a glimpse of the bandit's face. He came back as a monster with a strong grudge against his hands which failed to defend him, now with eyes capable of sight in the palms of his hands, yet none in his head as he was blind in life"
A terrible fate for the poor man and now he's wandering the roads looking for revenge!
Boxed Sets
Additionally there is also a set of boxes for the game featuring full units for you to use like the
Doro-Ta-Bo which is a selection of unfortunate undead fellows who are now shambling forth to tear into the living. They all have fascinating poses which give you the sense of them lurching forward.
The Ukuri-Inu then follow along as some strange hound-like beasts that will no doubt protect their masters with a bloodthirsty vengeance.
It's great to see the line-up continuing to grow with more models for the range. You should be able to find them all HERE soon.
What do you think of the offerings?

Oh this could be very interesting. (Bloody Ben , I wish he’d stop pointing out interesting things … *self control,must practice self control*)
taisho is really nice and I dig the paint job.
I love the resident evil hounds.
Those look really good.
As i’m playing Shadow Tactics (awesome game by the way) on my PC at the moment i really think about starting a game with Ninjas, Samurai and the like and these miniatures look nice.
If someone here plays them can you tell me the difference between Kensei and Torii and Bushido?
Bought all these as part of the Kensei Undead Kickstarter last year. They’re gorgeous. Now I can field an entire undead Sengoku period army!
The Tenome is a very old Japanese Mythological creature featured in books from the 18th Century – If anything, Pan’s Labyrinth drew inspiration from it, particularly as the Tenome (literally, “hands of eyes”) is also called the Pale Man. Kensei is a relatively faithful Samurai battle game with ranked units fighting on a battlefield. Torii is the skirmish version, with single models as opposed to units. Both are made by the same company, use the same models and are set in the same universe – the True-to-Life Sengoku era Japan. It does draw from Japanese Mythology, but you can choose… Read more »
Thanks for the information, I think I’ll take a deeper look at Torii.
