 Marneus Calgar – Armour of Antilochus


 

The Chapter Master of the Ultramarines returns to the field in his relic Terminator armour.

  • Wields the Gauntlets of Ultramar.

Black Library Highlights

Final Verdict

The Crux Terminatus Battleforce is the box for Terminator lovers — a pure elite army in one purchase with enormous value and all-new sculpts. Coupled with new Ultramarines heroes and holiday fun from Da Red Gobbo, this is a pre-order wave that has something for just about everyone.

🚨 Note: Expect very limited supply on the Crux Terminatus box across the entire supply chain.
