The Emperor’s Golden Throne is guarded by an entire legion of the Adeptus Custodes, the deadliest superhuman warriors in the galaxy. But, y’know, he’s kind of a big deal: I reckon one space marine is enough for the average gaming desk.
It’s a lot cheaper, too—especially in the Prime Day sales.

This lil Ultramarine Intercessor Joytoy action figure is cute as the dickens and 36% off today. That makes him just $16 at Amazon, which is a pretty stellar price for this usually quite expensive range of toys.
I’m not usually a big action figure fan, but I’ve picked up a few Warhammer Joytoys over the years, and I do find them really impressive. They’re super poseable—the chunky Warhammer proportions seem to help there, keeping them nice and stable in action poses. And the production values are really admirable, with great paintjobs and a sturdy, robust feel.
Here’s a shot of the pair currently holding vigil on my shamefully messy desk—a Sister of Battle and a Thousand Sons terminator:
An unlikely pair, you might argue, but have you considered the unifying power of a red colour scheme?
Speaking of which, if Ultramarines aren’t your chapter of choice, there’s similarly good deals on other chapter variants: Imperial Fists, Space Wolves, and Blood Angels. In fact, there are savings across a whole range of Warhammer Joytoy figures—such as 20% off this bold Imperial Guardsman and 31% off the imposing Tau leader Commander Shadowsun.
If you have the patience to wait until October, you can learn all about the people I’m talking about with the Warhammer 40,000 Character Encyclopedia, which has got a pre-order discount at Amazon right now.
Some might ask, “How are these PC gaming accessories?”, but those people have never experienced the simple pleasure of playing Warhammer 40k: Darktide while a little plastic space marine watches on in silent, stoic approval. I take no responsibility, however, for any foolish purchases of giant boxes of Warhammer miniatures that this could prove a gateway to.
