- Bandai Warhammer 40k Ultramarines Gravis Captain
As we shared last week, the next Warhammer 40k Space Marine from Bandai will be the Ultramarines Primaris Captain. This high end, fully articulated, action figure stands over 8-inch tall and will include a Power Sword and a bolt storm gauntlet. The figure comes with two right-hand options, one to hold the sword the other a clenched fist. Like the previous Warhammer 40k figures from Bandai, the Ultramarines Captain will be made to order with the pre-order window running until the 31st of August. Once the pre-order period closes the figure goes into production with a 210 day lead time and an ETA of March 2022. The UK RRP for the figure is £200 and orders can be placed via Games Workshop. The Adeptus Astartes, commonly known as Space Marines, are both the sword and shield of the Imperium. Genetically engineered transhumans, each Astartes is worth more than a hundred men on the battlefield. Of all Space Marine Chapters, the Ultramarines are the most well versed in the battlefield doctrines laid out in the Codex Astartes, each a consummate tactician in his own right. To be a Captain of such mighty beings is to stride into battle wreathed in the mightiest of armour, wielding powerful weapons, and to command the galaxy's greatest warriors with assuredness, precision, and ferocity. The distinctive armour and weaponry of the Space Marines have been explored in the form of miniatures for longer than Warhammer 40,000 has existed. Our partners at Bandai have captured this iconic look at an incredible level of detail, deftly honouring every aspect of the design that makes the Adeptus Astartes instantly recognisable. This incredible figure will be the pride of your collection, displayed prominently on your shelf to amaze and inspire you for years to come. This wonderfully detailed figure represents an Ultramarines Primaris Captain, wielding a mighty bolt storm gauntlet and power sword. He wears the Gravis variant of Mark X armour. The action figure comes with a detachable backpack and two right hands – one formed into a fist for heroic poses and one gripping hand for holding the power sword. Standing over 8" tall and fully articulated, you can pose this model however you want – running, fighting, or stoically surveying the battlefield. Comprised of both painted plastic and diecast metal, this is the highest quality Space Marine figure available. Made to Order This Ultramarines action figure is available via Made to Order until 10am on Tuesday 31st August 2021. Order yours today to avoid missing out!
