Don’t miss some fresh-looking Warhammer 40k compatible Saturnine-style “Invader” Terminators from Pop Goes the Monkey!
If you’ve been in the hobby long enough to remember the original Terminator sculpts, this might just be the best news of the year. Pop Goes the Monkey is bringing some serious old-school vibes with their latest release—Saturnus Invader-Pattern Terminators.
These aren’t just another take on classic designs; they are a perfect blend of nostalgia and modern sizing to fit right in with today’s models.
Mark 1 Saturnus-Pattern Terminator Armor: $36.00
The Invader-Pattern Terminators stay true to the chunky, brutal design that long-time players love while being adjusted for the modern scale. Whether you’re looking to fill out a veteran squad or create a unique character model, these will definitely stand out. They’re available in different sets, letting you grab a full squad, a smaller pack, or even a single Terminator if you’re looking for that one standout model.
The torsos are a single-piece design, and the massive shoulder pads have pin holes for weapon arm attachment. That means fewer parts to worry about while still keeping customization options open. For those who love variety, there are extra arm and weapon choices sold separately.
Mark 2 Saturnus-Pattern Terminator Armor $36.00
The Mark 2 Saturnus Terminators bring a distinct, vintage look while being updated to match the scale of modern models. Their design reflects a brutal, industrial aesthetic that makes them stand out from standard Terminator armor. The one-piece torso construction ensures a solid build, while the oversized shoulder pads provide that classic silhouette.
Weapon arm attachment is simple with pre-made sockets, allowing for easy customization. If you’re looking to create a standout veteran squad, these are a fantastic option. The Invader Squad includes five Saturnus Terminator models, each armed with a pair of Power Claws, giving them a fearsome melee presence. Additional arms and weapon choices are available separately for those who want even more variety.
Built for durability and detail, these models arrive pre-cleaned, ready for primer after being removed from their supports. Simply soak them in hot water for a few minutes, and they’ll come off smoothly.
Mark 3 Saturnus-Pattern Terminator Armor: $40.00
The Mark 3 Saturnus Terminators take the imposing bulk of their predecessors and add more battlefield customization. This variant keeps the same one-piece torso and massive shoulder plates but introduces more customization with the upper weapon mount. Options include a Squad Banner, Top-Knots, or Haloed Skulls, letting players add some extra personality to their force.
Like the Mark 2, these models are available in Monkey Resin, a high-quality UV-cured material designed for strength and precision detailing. The resin’s low shrinkage ensures crisp edges and a smooth surface, making these models a dream for painters and hobbyists alike.
Final Thoughts
If you want a Terminator squad that feels imposing both on the tabletop and on display, these Saturine-style Terminator models are the way to go. These models hold their own against even the largest modern Marines, making them a perfect addition to any collection.
