The Shambling Samurai Undead Come To Zenit’s Kensei & Torii
October 14, 2016 by brennon
Zenit Miniatures has put together a rather awesome selection of undead warriors for the world of Kensei and Torii. See what you make of this army of shambling Samurai!
Leading the way we have this selection of heroes which were probably once proud warriors. Now they have been bought back to life to serve another master unendingly.
Even the Ashigaru here is looking impressive where they've gone for a zombie look compared to that of a skeleton. There's another hero in the mix too, ready to bring down his sword upon an unexpected foe.
All of these heroes, however, are simply the leaders of a large horde of the undead. Let's take a look...
A Shambling Army
The Katana Samurai might form the backbone of your army for Kensei. Without the fear of death in them, I'm sure they'll be even more dangerous.
Following on from them we also have the Yumi Samurai. Once again, with no muscles to pull back those bowstrings and magic guiding their aim I would imagine you're going to become a pin cushion in no time.
The Yari Ashigaru are also part of the solid wall of undead that will make up your army. I like the tattered flags on their backs speaking to their former allegiance.
We also have some more interesting undead creatures as part of the mix too. These Jikininki, for example, are like ghouls! They have a very predatory nature to them with claws ready to tear and rip.
Last but not least we also have the Yurei Naginata who are floating creatures with a haunting quality to them. Armed with the fearsome naginata as well they are going to be drifting forwards cutting down everything in their way.
What do you think of this collection of miniatures from Zenit? Considering they've got a cool Japanese to them Lloyd might be interested!

I’ve got an entire Kensei undead army from backing their KS 🙂
I really want these guys for Frostgrave
All of those look really good.
zombie samurai difficult to think how they can work.
These look cool. Do have to nit pick @brennon bushido was about choice death over life and seeking the elevated state of conciousness provided in the moments of danger, so samuri didn’t fear death
This looks better than I thought. I give them two thumbs up.
Im thinking kings of war undead samoyrai army. Mostof the basic units are there.
Like Redben I backed the KS and got an entire army of undead with some of the great add ons. The complete range which has not been released yet is really impressive. I can’t say that the in house idea of matching colour (red) does the range justice so when I make a dedicated start on these there will be no uniform armour colour as if the necromancer raised undead regardless of how they served in life. The cavalry are also great with the horses looking dead and rotten. It reminds me of a print of a samurai on horse… Read more »
