Codex: Adeptus Custodes: $40

60030108012_AdeptusCustodesCodexENG01

The Adeptus Custodes are the Emperor’s personal guard. For ten thousand years they have stood sentinel over the Master of Mankind and defended the gates of his palace. Yet now the Emperor’s blades are unsheathed. Biochemically fashioned from infancy to function as supreme tacticians, combatants and bodyguards, they are death incarnate to those who oppose the Emperor’s will. Each Custodian is sublimely skilled, their talents and abilities to the Space Marines what those transhuman warriors are to unaugmented Imperial soldiery. The Ten Thousand walk the stars in numbers not seen since the Great Crusade, and woe betide those who stand in their way.

Codex: Adeptus Custodes contains a wealth of background and rules – the definitive book for Adeptus Custodes collectors. Within this 80-page hardback, you’ll find:

– Brotherhood of the Demigods: the history of the Adeptus Custodes, from their formation as the Legio Custodes to their increased visibility and wider role in the campaign against Chaos since the Great Rift;
– Detailed descriptions of their deployment during the Horus Heresy, the civil war ten thousand years ago that tore the Imperium in twain, along with details of their role protecting the Emperor’s Golden Throne;
– Shadows and Alchemy: the process by which Adeptus Custodes are created. along with details of their defence of Terra including an overview of the palace itself;
– Rise of the Primarch: an overview of the Gathering Storm, a series of events that saw the Ultramarines Primarch Roboute Guilliman restored to glory and the Adeptus Custodes being sent to aid the Indomitus Crusade;
– A Host of Heroes: the composition of the Adeptus Custodes, and the manner in which they organise themselves for war – far more loosely than other Imperial organisations, but easily as effective;
– Uniforms and Heraldry: examples for 5 shield companies – the Shadowkeepers, the Aquilan Shield, the Dread Host, the Solar Watch and the Emissaries Imperatus;
– The Solar Fastness: while once the invasion of Terra was unthinkable, since the Great Rift things have changed. This section describes the Adeptus Custodes’ defence of the Sol System;

Custodian Guard Squad: $60

60010101002_BurningProsperoENG02

Bright and resplendent in gleaming gold, the Adeptus Custodes stride into war with the confidence their imposing stature gives them. Bullets and shrapnel ricochet from gilded breastplates – these warriors are armoured with the finest wargear, carrying the blessing of the Emperor himself.

Vexilus Praetor: $60

99120108006_CustodianSquadVex01

The Adeptus Custodes are a glorious and much celebrated force. In the earliest days of the Imperium they marched to war alongside the Emperor himself, presenting a magnificent spectacle which echoed the majesty of the master of Mankind. Just as their weapons and armour have always been fashioned to reflect his martial glory, so too are the proud standards known as vexillas, which are borne to war by some of the most veteran Custodians. Few shield companies march to war without Vexillas rising above them.

Shield-Captain: $60

99120108006_CustodianSquadSgt01

The warriors of the Adeptus Custodes disregard the idea of blind obedience, and look with disdain upon those who follow the orders of their superiors without question.

Such Custodians are called Shield-Captains, and their fellows follow them with loyalty and dedication.

Many claim that Trajann Valoris is the greatest warrior to hold the title of Captain-General since the Emperor strode the stars, having proven himself to be dynamic and effective; qualities that make him ideally suite to lead in this age of unprecedented aggression.

99120108012_GeneralTrajannValoris03

This multi-part plastic kit contains the components necessary to assemble Captain-General Trajann Valoris. His armour is elaborate and eye-catching even amongst his Custodes brothers – he wears the Castellan Plate, an ancient suit of powered armour that incorporates a heraldic tilting plate adorned with an eagle’s head emblem and large feathers. This includes a striking cloak made from the hide of a lion, woven through with adamantine thread – the lion’s head and front paws are draped dramatically over his right shoulder. An auramite halo frames his scowling face, and the whole suit is covered in the kind of ornate, sculpted details that set the Adeptus Custodes apart from other Imperial warriors – eagles, gemstones and filigree litter every surface. His main weapon held in his right hand is the Watcher’s Axe, an enormous polearm which incorporates a ferocious master-crafted bolt weapon known as the Eagle’s Scream; he also carries a misericordia and an ancient relic on his belt known as the Moment Shackle.

This kit comes as 19 components, and is supplied with a Citadel 40mm Round base.

Roboute Guilliman: $60

99120101177_TriumvirateofthePrimarch02

Strategist. Hero. Avenging Son. Roboute Guilliman is the Primarch of the Ultramarines, Lord of Ultramar, and a peerless leader of men. Resurrected by the Adeptus Mechanicus and the Ynnari, he seeks to muster the strength of the Imperium and drive back the minions of the Dark Gods. Towering over even the heroic battle-brothers of his Chapter, Guilliman storms to war with a thunderous scowl. He clutches the burning sword of the Emperor, and wears the Hand of Dominion, with which he can tear apart tanks and crush his foes with ease. Yet it is the Primarch’s strategic brilliance that is his greatest weapon, dooming enemies to defeat before the battle has even begun.

99120101198_Guilliman01

This multi-part plastic kit contains the components necessary to assemble Roboute Guilliman, Primarch of the Ultramarines. An impressively-sized model, standing head and shoulders above the Primaris Space Marines, he is a riot of detail – the Armour of Fate that encases his body is covered in beautiful, ornate filigree patterns on every part of the armour, with sculpted aquilæ, purity seals, skulls and Ultramarine Chapter icons on every surface. His winged backpack features an Adeptus Mechanicus maker’s plate and glorious iron halo, with many cables and hoses attaching it to the weaponry it feeds. The Emperor’s Sword, held in his right hand, is a huge blade that burns with righteous fury (and fire), while the Hand of Dominion, the enormous gauntlet on his left, is also capable of unleashing hails of armour piercing gunfire. You have the choice to model Guilliman with his head bare, or with an especially aggressive-looking helmet – both options feature a wreath.

This model comes as 44 components, and is supplied with a 60mm Round sculpted base depicting Guilliman standing astride a broken Imperial eagle, flanked by 2 burning torches.

Celestine, the Living Saint: $55

99120108008_TriumvirateoftheImperium06

Wings spread wide, halo blazing and Ardent Blade in hand, Saint Celestine is a living embodiment of the God-Emperor’s might. She shines like a star amid the smoke and fumes of the battlefield, radiating holy light. The faithful are filled with strength and courage by presence, even as the heretics recoil in terror. With a gesture, the Living Saint calls down fires of retribution from on high, or infuses injured allies with healing energies. The Geminae Superia, Sisters Genevieve and Eleanor, would lay down their lives to protect the blessed saint from harm.

99120108009_SaintCelestine01

This multi-part plastic kit contains the components necessary to assemble Celestine, the Living Saint, and her 2 accompanying Geminae Superia. She wears the Armour of St. Katherine, a set of glorious golden plate replete with holy icons and sculpted symbols. The model is held aloft from the base by a scripture that attaches to her billowing cloak – even this detail is dwarfed by the enormous wings that span out from her backpack, with a spiked iron halo above her enraptured face. The sparking Ardent Blade in her right hand blossoms with roses, even as a brace of doves is released on her left. She is accompanied by the Geminae Superia, wearing similar armour (with smaller wingspans) and aggressively wielding bolt pistols and power swords.

This kit comes as 46 components, and is supplied with 3 Citadel 32mm Round bases.

Cypher: $35

99120101177_TriumvirateofthePrimarch06

There is one whom the Masters of the Dark Angels seek above all others. He is a being wrapped in shadow, an entity whose motives and methods are an enigma; even the name by which he is known alludes to concealment – though whether it is a metaphor or yet another conundrum is unknown. He is Cypher, and to the Dark Angels, he is nothing less than their most hated foe.

99070102008_Cypher01

This multi-part plastic kit contains the components necessary to assemble Cypher, Lord of the Fallen. He is bedecked in archaic, makeshift gear – as a renegade, with no Chapter to call his own, Cypher makes the best of whatever gear he can gather together. His backpack has been refitted countless times over the centuries, and his armour is a mix of various patterns. He’s armed with a bolt pistol, and a plasma pistol incorporating an external heat dissipator. His cowl and cloak are certainly well-used, with holes and tears everywhere – but the standout is the enormous sword he carries on his back. This may or may not be the fabled Lion Sword, and if it is, Cypher’s unknowable intentions become even more interesting…

This kit comes as 8 components, and is supplied with a Citadel 32mm Round base.

Inquisitor Greyfax: $25

99120108008_TriumvirateoftheImperium04

Utterly uncompromising, devoid of mercy or remorse, Inquisitor Greyfax acts as the self-appointed executioner of any she names heretic. She is a psyker of some power – a fact that has led more than one of her peers to brand her as a dangerous radical – and her abilities allow her to detect any lie. This talent allows her to hunt with impunity, knowing that those she condemns have already damned themselves with their tainted thoughts. Inquisitor Greyfax is able to weaponise her hatred of Chaos, projecting it as a crippling pall of fear that forces her victims to their knees.

99070108005_Greyfax01

This multi-part plastic kit contains the components necessary to assemble Inquisitor Greyfax. An incredibly imposing figure, she is clad head to toe in master-crafted power armour, which is covered in details – Inquisitorial sigils, skulls and ornate seals all feature heavily. She holds a master-crafted condemnor boltgun in her right hand, which couples the iconic might of the imperial bolter with a secondary launcher that fires blessed silver stakes – truly a powerful weapon against Chaos. A large master-crafted power sword is visible beneath the her cloak, which billows beneath a backpack covered in dials and exhausts. The model is topped off by a wide-brimmed hat which on some models might seem ostentatious, but is entirely appropriate framing the face of Greyfax, which features the Psyocculum – the Eye of the Emperor.

This kit comes as 13 components, and is supplied with a Citadel 40mm Round base.
