40K: Bandai 40K Figs On Display
A toy fair in Japan has some previews of the new Bandai Space Marines, and they’re every bit larger than life as you’d hope. Take a look!
There’s so much to dig into coming out of Japan right now. Hot off the news of the Bandai figures come the images from a GW Booth at the Shizuoka Hobby Show with all the latest GW/Ban-on display. Action figures, Gashapon, new Space Marine Heroes. There’s something for collectors of all stripes. Here’s a look, thanks to a few Twitter users who have been sharing these images.

Here’s a nice big closeup of the Space Marine with his 40K counterpart for scale. Guess you could say that he’s a big battle brother. Here’s a look at the 40K Gashapon:

I didn’t realize how amazing that Beaky Marine was until we had a closer look. Chibi Space Marines seem strangely on-brand for the Imperium.

Then there’s another look at some of the variant poses. Or perhaps you are more interested in Space Marine Heroes.

If you pay close attention, you’ll spy a preview of Series 3, with the Deathguard looming ominously in the background. And Foreground.

So as you can see, there’s plenty to keep an eye out for. In the meantime, the Shizuoka Hobby Show has it all. Including Citadel Paints and a bit of Contrast on display. Between this and Warhammer Fest, there’s been so much unveiled for 40K. Now is such a great time to be a hobbyist. Of course, it’ll be a while before these make their way across the rest of the world, but we’ll be sure to keep a close eye or and keep you updated.
In the meantime, let us know what you think of these new figures in the comments!
