Want to know more about the Bandai’s Primaris Space Marine action figure? Don’t miss these rumors on the upcoming release!
Warhammer Community made the announcement that Bandai partnered up with Games Workshop. They’ll be bringing us a scaled up, multi-pose version of a Primaris Marine. It’ll be fully painted and come with a host of different weapons. Make sure you get caught up on our earlier post if you haven’t already.
GW & Bandai Releasing Primaris Action Figure
Today, we can show you some of the initial designs for the first-ever Warhammer 40,000 action figure! It’s a fully painted, 7-inch-tall Primaris Space Marine, featuring multiple points of articulation, exchangeable weapons, and all sorts of other cool details, brought to life on a new scale.
So sitting at seven inches tall, this will be another great addition to your Imperial shelf. You’ll be able to pose him in all sorts of different ways with different weapons as well. With what we saw with the Funko POP Space Marines, we are sure some of you are going to paint him up to the colors of your liking as well if they are not offered.
Release Rumors for Bandai’s Primaris Marine Action Figure
According to an industry insider, the new Primaris Action figure will be priced and packaged similarly to the other licensed releases Bandai does.
What does that mean? Bandai has their own specific line that they categorize licensed models under called S.H Figuarts. This new Avengers Warmachine figure is a prime example. With that said, the Primaris Marine might also hit the shelves under the same product line (mainly because the Primaris belongs to GW and therefore a licensee item).
Warmachine For Pre-Order
Warmachine Figure Stand
Going off one of Bandai’s products that are waiting right around the corner, this Marvel Avengers action figure sits just one inch shorter than the Primaris Marine will. It’s on pre-order now right under $80. The extra inch and weapon options could drive up the price but at the end of the day, the model could very well sell for $80-$100 just like another licensee items.
You can see the Primaris Marine on display here with a clear plastic stand that looks to hook around his waist. Just like the stand holding up the Warmachine figure from above.
Also shown are separate Primaris hand options as well, just like the Ashigaru Stormtrooper below.
To get a better idea on how we might see the Primaris packaged, check out our video review of Bandai’s Samurai Stormtrooper:
The scaled-up Primaris figure is gearing up to be a hot commodity for people’s hobby caves. Especially for the Loyalists. Do you think we could see different paint schemes like Dark Angels, Blood Angels, etc.? Or do you think we will see one big release of GW’s classic go-to, Ultramarine blue?
