Queue the Lieutenant jokes, a new exclusive Primaris Space Marine Captain has been spotted in Warhammer Imperium magazine…
Fauxhammer broke down the new magazine’s contents, but we were mainly concerned with the model they mention from the subscription service (which is only available in the UK).
New Exclusive Space Marine Captain Model Spotted
Each issue of Warhammer 40,000: Imperium comes with a selection of
miniatures, paints, brushes, vehicles or scenery PLUS an exclusive magazine
to build your own Warhammer 40,000 army!
Coming inside one of the issues of Warhammer Imperium Magazine (the precursor to Warhammer Conquest magazine you may remember) will be this new Captain model.
Can you spot him?
Here is a hint, but it looks like his pose may be reversed here…

Firstly, we don’t know much about this model and it’s mostly speculation. What we do know is that this model is exclusive to the service, meaning it will be gold on the secondary market seeing how exclusive it is.
While currently, we don’t have any confirmation on who the model is, our money is on Decimus Felix. He was featured in the Dark Imperium book by Guy Haley and is one of the Ultramarine Captains.
He was also notably one of the first Primaris marines that Cawl worked on (and at least 10k years old). He became Equerry of Guilliman, which shows the Primarch’s respect toward Decimus, as he later elevated him to the new role of Tetrarch. The laurels seem to also help support this theory.
Back in England, the first two issues cost 8.99£ each which is amazing compared with the two-issue cost here of $16.90. but it is unclear if all 80 issues will be $8.99 each as issues 3 and 4 costs about $12 respectively.
With all this in mind, we don’t know what issue the model will ship with, but it will be coming eventually with the magazine subscription service.
