Marneus Calgar and new Ultramarines prepare to defend Ultramar

Marneus Calgar is a legendary hero who takes every opportunity to strike at the enemies of the Imperium with righteous fury. He’s so eager to defend Ultramar, some of you may have recently seen him stepping into the breach.

Well, he’s not entering battle alone, and he’s brought some awe-inspiring friends with him.

Clad in the Armour of Antilochus, his iconic suit of Terminator armour, and wielding the Gauntlets of Ultramar, Marneus Calgar is a force to be reckoned with. 


This brand new miniature recalls the classic Calgar many of you will remember from years past, striding forward in a modernised design decorated with personal heraldry and honour markings. 

Almost as famous as Calgar is Cato Sicarius, an accomplished champion of the Ultramarines and newly appointed captain of the Victrix Honour Guard.


Vintage remains in style as Cato’s new miniature evokes the statuesque pose of the previous miniature, holding his ornate helm in one hand while raising his Talassarian Tempest Blade to the sky with the other.  


Wearing suitably embellished Mk X Tacticus Armour, Cato also sports an all-important back banner* featuring the heraldry of his Chapter. He’s got two choices of heads, one surveying the battlefield in typically stoic manner, the other mid-battle cry. 

It wouldn’t be proper to reveal the Lord Macragge without showing off his elite bodyguard, would it? Luckily, we’ve got just the thing…

Composed of 1st Company veterans, the Victrix Honour Guard are peerless warriors who serve as bodyguards for the Chapter’s highest-ranking officers – you know they’re deadly if they’re guarding the likes of Calgar. 

This new unit contains three Honour Guard with a bounty of interchangeable options including greaves, helmets, and left arm options wielding master-crafted bolt carbines. One miniature can be built as a Chapter Champion, and another as a Chapter Ancient carrying the Banner of Macragge. We reckon this might hold the record for being the biggest flag in all of Warhammer** – seriously, check out this absolutely absurd piece of ornately decorated fabric. That’s peak Ultramarines as far as we’re concerned.

As for what this means for the Space Marines of the Ultramarines Chapter, we’ll have more news later in the year. Stay tuned to Warhammer Community for all the latest news.
