Greater Daemon of Sigmar, er New Celestant Prime Unboxing
The greater Daemon of Sigmar is finally here in the form of the new Celestant-Prime Miniature. Come see what may have once been Karl Franz himself.
The new Celestant Prime model is probably the best “medium” sized model Games Workshop has produced in a while. He’s also perfect for making epic-ally huge Astartes characters as well. He’s also rumored to be the lightning infused version of Karl Franz held over from the destruction of the Old World.

Celestant Prime $80
The wrath of the God-King. The Avenging Angel of Azyr. The Bearer of the World-Hammer. The First Scion of Sigmar – this is the Celestant-Prime. A great king and guardian of men even in mortal life, he has been strengthened by a prodigious infusion of Sigmar’s divine might; but even this power was not enough. Now wielding the Skull Splitter, the Great Shatterer Ghal Maraz, the Celestant-Prime’s fury roars across the battlefields of the realms as an overwhelming clarion call. The thunderous impact of Ghal Maraz can slay a daemon with one blow, setting the spirit within free to make its way to Azyr.
This multi-part plastic kit is everything you need to build one incredible Celestant-Prime miniature. Carrying Ghal Maraz – the legendary Hammer of Sigmar – and a cometstrike sceptre, capable of bringing celestial objects down from the heavens to annihilate foes in a blaze of light and fury, this model is borne aloft on a celestial vortex, features an intricately-detailed cloak, and can be modelled with arms aloft or down by his sides. Forty components in total, includes a Citadel 100mm Round base.
Pros:
- Dynamic Model looks great on the table top and anchors the Stormcast Line
- HUGE conversion potential, as the kits is almost completely multi-part.
- Comes with Warscroll rules in box
Cons:
- Pretty much only assembles one way.
Overall this seems like a very dynamic and cool kit for Age of Sigmar. and you can make some really cool character conversions with it too. Being “primarch” sized is a bonus IMHO for making a custom Astartes conversion as well!
