The Santas of Games Workshop – PRIME

Ho ho hoooo boy there have been a lot of Games Workshop Santa miniatures in the past few years.

The holiday season is well and truly upon us now, and several winter festivals are either wrapping up or just getting into full swing. For those of us who celebrate Christmas, that means wrapping presents, singing carols, and preparing for a large gentleman in red to make his way to our house and hopefully leave us treats in presents in an old sock. Now Santa Claus may not exist as we know him in the Mortal Realms or the 41st millennium.

While both properties are strictly nondenominational, the inspiration leaks in all the same, and over time a few determined warriors have tapped into their festive spirit to spread a little cheer (and perhaps a bit of violence). Here are a few of the Santa-adjacent models that have premiered over the years, and a little bit about their story.
