More previews of Bandai’s multi-posable Primaris Marine figure have been spotted at Gen Con! Check out the latest on this collectible Space Marine model.
Warhammer Community announced that GW and Bandai have partnered up to bring a new collectible to the market. They’ll be giving 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 first 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 Figure Stand
Going off one of Bandai’s latest products, this Marvel Avengers action figure sits just one inch shorter than the Primaris Marine will. It might be out of stock right now, but we first saw the item go for pre-order at $80. Now that it’s available (and out of stock) it’s sitting at just under $90.
The extra inch and weapon options could drive up the price on the Primaris 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.
