The Top 10 JoyToy x Warhammer 40K Space Marines You Should Have in Your Collection 9/21- 6/23

[@OHSnappage]

I’m glad somebody did a top ten on the JoyToy 40K figs, of course it’s personal preference. But I like to see others analyze & break down their choices. It may point out something I overlooked! 😂 Ty Sprues N’Studs.

[@SpruesNStuds]

No problem and thanks for the support! I spent quite a lot of time having an internal debate in my brain as to which figures to choose. Trust me in saying that this video took me the most time to make because of the decision making process

[@rayz404]

black templar marshal is my favorite, the upcoming Helbrecht could be cool to review

[@SpruesNStuds]

I have a very, very good feeling about Helbrecht. From the photos...he seems like he will be a BIG contender for top JT action figure of 2023.

[@garyvaughn2905]

I got a few space marines based on your list. Crowe definitely is at the top of my list. I would also include the new Chaos Sorcerer Lord, Tor Garadon, Korsarro Khan, and Bayar's Revenge.

[@SpruesNStuds]

I hope that I didn't steer you wrong as people have different tastes. Due to all the unique characters that have been released in the past 2 months, my top 10 list might be completely obsolete by now....which means new video!

[@petarpetrovic-ix3sb]

Techmarine got me into collecting joytoy warhammer, like I needed another line to collect.

[@Maschinengeist793]

Very good and diverse list, in my opinion. My list would obviously have had Tor Garadon on it (somewhere in the top 5). And I would probably also have made a bit of a niche pick with Sigyrr Stoneshield (2.0 Standard Space Wolf) due to all the cool accessories he comes with. With all the cool upcoming releases (s.a. Helbrecht and Guilliman) you might soon have to update or extend your list, though! 😀

[@SpruesNStuds]

Space Wolves have one of the most complex and best decorations of all the Marines. Tor is a good pick too. The upcoming releases of Roboute, Helbrecht, and the UM Bladeguad Captain are going to be pretty epic...and you are not wrong in that I will have to update this list haha

[@mostcomplicatedman8115]

im glad i discovered this channel . really grew on me

[@SpruesNStuds]

Thanks for being one of the most vocal supporters of the channel!

[@dougquaid82]

My personal favourites are the 3 ultra marine veterans especially the one that looks like Titus from space marine 1 and 2.. Also the Adeptus custodies terminators, which are filled with great paint and detail as well as looking badass. I also really liked the Ultra Marines Flag bearer which had some great detail. And I love my Blood angels death company. But Honestly, JoyToy are giving us some excellent Warhammer Figures.

[@SpruesNStuds]

I don't disagree with you that the UM do have some really good figures. It was tough just narrowing the list down to 2 of them. As for the Custodes, I didn't include them because they aren't Marines but fear not, they will be included in a similar video such as this one

[@josepdomenechmarti7173]

Excellent pieces, my top 10: Ragnar Blackmane, Marneus Calgar, Castellan Crowe, Chaos Anihilators Champion, Tor Garadon, Kor'sarro Khan, Grey Knights Banner, Grey Knights Champion, Bjorn's and Ork Nob

[@SpruesNStuds]

Nice top list that you got going on there. I wanted to include more special characters in this list such as Tor and Khan but I felt that the inclusion of all these special characters would be too much.

[@josepdomenechmarti7173]

@@SpruesNStuds this my temporally top-10 list.

[@Rashard_D]

I’m glad you did a top 10 JoyToy 40k

[@SpruesNStuds]

I am thinking of doing more of these types of videos...just wait until all these new figures get released in the next few months!

[@chiefteefteefreturns3320]

It’s not flame on castellan Crowes sword, it’s a demon infused into the blade and the so called flame is the demons essence

[@mrgoodkat8567]

I still think as a whole, the space wolves are the best chapter joytoy figure wise. Every figure, even the basic space marine are awesome. And the horus heresy sw’s….*chef’s kiss*. And im a huge BT fan

[@IamAlphariusOmegon40k]

The first joytoy warhammer figure I purchased was in fact a space wolves blade guard veteran lol

[@andreselgueta9673]

What a hard task to do brother Sprues. Have a pair of the selected space marines. Georgeous figures. Excellent selection dude!!

[@andreselgueta9673]

My vote goes to the emperors champion. Simply quite elegant as you said

[@SpruesNStuds]

Yah, the champion is a close number 2 for me

[@tanks-a-lot6466]

Personally I’d have swapped out the grey knight for the one with the spear. The banner is nice, but it can be a nightmare to balance sometimes. I agree that Crowe and calgar are must haves, I have both and they are great.

[@SpruesNStuds]

The entire Grey Knight lineup is one of the best next to the BT as well as the Custodes. Nice that we agree on Crowe and Calgar!

[@Steve_Keen]

Take a shot every time he says "any other space marine"

[@DavidHyman031]

Thanks for the video! Definitely would love to see one for vehicles and dreadnaughts😊

[@SpruesNStuds]

Hmmm...I have a strong feeling that one of those vids may come up in some time in the future.

[@zyrabell69]

Great information! I maintain a spreadsheet list of all Macross anime model kit releases, it's around 2,000 entries so far with around 10 categories each and pictures are being added. But I have been trying to find a regularly updated list of all JoyToy 40K releases to include the Space Marines, Tyranids, Orks, etc with pictures for completists and to also see my options. Does anyone have a link to a current list, not an old one?

[@mostcomplicatedman8115]

oh i love these kind of videos . and actually helps choosing when spendig money on these figures

[@SpruesNStuds]

I am glad that I was able to help steer you in the right direction

[@mostcomplicatedman8115]

@@SpruesNStuds yeah its really hard to decide what to buy by looking the website pictures . but your indepht videos help a lot . also the raven guard figure painting video really helped me a lot to paint my own mcfarlane figure and came out really good with smooth lines, huge thanks for that . actually got me into painting and i love it

[@Ramdhon_Toyzz]

I think marneus calgar is in 2nd position, and blackmane at 3rd. They both are so amazing

[@galacula]

Wow, these are really nice looking. I really wanted one of the Adepta Sororitas models, but I feel like they don't have the "oomph" that some of the Space Marines figures do. The faces are really lacking too. Not sure if it's just me.

[@SpruesNStuds]

If you are going to get a Sisters of Battle figure, then Celestine is by far the one to buy. I find some of the face sculpts of the Sisters a but lacking but not all of them

[@heavyassaultcollectables1731]

I love War Hammer, specially the Tau. We need more Vehicles and most of all aircraft.🙏👍

[@semperfi2014mn]

Crowe looks amazing and a big fan of his lore but torn on getting Guilliman, joytoy did a incredible job with his figure. Or get a primaris lieutenant in preparation for space marine 2. If only I had the money to throw around guilt free :(

[@SpruesNStuds]

If I was limited on my money and was given the choices that you brought up, I think that saving up for Guilliman is the play. Obviously he is the most unique out of the all the unique characters and REALLY stands out in every collection

[@richardch.4356]

I just bought Ragnar i cant wait for him

[@pat.k4823]

Have you "Maxbird's coustume cape's" for your troopers!

[@SpruesNStuds]

I have not. However, I took a look on the web and I might have to try those capes out. They look pretty dope!

[@forumptocalendar4868]

Another great review, keep it up!!!

[@rhupin5276]

Hello there! In my opinion, blood angels veteran with chalice and bladeguard shouldn't make to top ten. Personally, I love this blood angel veteran with chalice, he looks really unique and special; but not enough to make it to top 10. Instead, I'd like to nominate Kor Sarro Khan and Chaos Lord to replace these two. Kor Sarro Khan figure is very unique that comes with special head sculpt and accessories. Chaos Lord has a really ornate armor; I especially like that wolf pelt on his shoulder. Special mention goes to Space Wolf Sigyrr and Black Templar Alberic for being great figures but generic enough to be used for army builder. Another special mention for Brother Logan from Space Wolves Claw Pack for having one of the most beautiful head sculpt and Veteran Sergeant Icastus whose head sculpt is based on Titus from Space Marine game.

[@SpruesNStuds]

I'd have to say that a lot of the Space Wolves should make this list. They have the most decorations/ complexity aside from the Black Templars. The Blood Angels Vet was a stretch lol. As I said in the video, I felt compelled to include them as I am a BA player/ fan in the WH40K tabletop game.

[@TanNguyen-iv5yh]

is Castelan Crowe same height as the Grey Knight interceptor squad?

[@thenostalgiabusiness]

I think many people, including me, agree with your placement of Crowe at the top of the list. My only issue with that figure is that he should have included a closed fist for his right hand instead of a trigger hand, since he has a wrist-mounted bolter and not a handheld one. I don't think JoyToy had a mold for a right fist at the time, though, so maybe they didn't want to add even more to the cost of an already expensive figure.

[@SpruesNStuds]

I didn't notice what kind of pose Crowe has on his GW miniature TBH. However with the soon to be released Voldus, perhaps you can swap out his closed fist onto Crowe?

[@thenostalgiabusiness]

@SpruesNStuds The idea crossed my mind too! Voldus's hands look a bit bigger, but if I end up getting the figure, I'll give it a shot.

[@SpruesNStuds]

I already pre-ordered Voldus so I will give that a shot. Although you are right in that I completely forgot Voldus is in terminator armor so that may not look correct.

[@thenostalgiabusiness]

@@SpruesNStuds Might be out of place in your review video, but if you can sneak the hand swap test in there, I’d love to see it!

[@SpruesNStuds]

The beauty of having full control of my channel is that I can do whatever the hell I want on it...well....there are limits but swapping hands is nowhere near that limit

[@Kwaadlion]

There's just one oopsie on the timeline, that's not a BT high marshal, just a marshal

[@martinithechobit]

blades guards cost so much and always out of stock. Emperor champions simplicity makes him top tier looks.

[@nederlander7237]

I strongly believe Sergeant Rychas should be up there too

[@SpruesNStuds]

Excellent submission for sure with all the different Raven Guard decorations. Sucks that I did not have this figure at the time of filming

[@HydroOptimist]

The new joy toy guilliman is coming for the throne

[@SpruesNStuds]

We will have to see! There are a lot of excellent figures coming our way such as Helbrecht and Mephiston. The future is bright!

[@santana7587]

How many inches is the rotary platform and what is its name?

[@guillaumebarnabe998]

Amazing list ! Not the same order I would have selected and it is clearly missing the Sister with the Icon and the Custodes leader, but we all have different tastes

[@SpruesNStuds]

Oh don't worry about the lack of inclusion of the Adepta Sororitas/ Adeptus Custodes. The only reason why they were not in this video because they are not Marines...but that will be solved in a video the future

[@jayrey6945]

excellent choices! i'd need at least a top 25 list, better a top 50 🤤

[@SpruesNStuds]

Hahaha, you'd have to get ready for an hour plus video if I decided to do that. Don't think that the thought didn't cross my mind

[@Dark_Templar28]

Great picks, I can tell you know your WH40K.

[@SpruesNStuds]

Thanks! I am an old fart lol. I started back in the late 90’s so there is no excuse for me for not knowing my stuff

[@pcuimac]

No Chaos models? No Necron?

[@Ghostpanzer]

That’s not the high marshal my guy , it’s just a marshal , the high marshal is helbrecht

[@andreselgueta9673]

Well this list is open to debate, but, tell me this brothers and sisters of the Sprues Chapter; would you have included in this list the figure of Sergeant Castor of the heroes of the chapter trio???😮

[@andreselgueta9673]

The epitome of a line battle brother of the ultramarines

[@SpruesNStuds]

Of course all lists are subject to debate and I am open to suggestions for sure

[@ericcson3429]

The more a Space Marine looks like a decorated roman solider or medieval knight, the less I like it. I just want the grim darkness of futuristic warfare. And guns, not swords.

[@SpruesNStuds]

Haha I see that you are not a fan of the Templars nor the Ultramarines then. Although I would have to say that some of the marine chapters have a heavy focus on hand to hand combat such as the Blood Angels and Space Wolves.

[@MokeD.Mokesi]

But isn't that exactly what they are supposed to be? Overly Zealous, praying to their half dead God Imperator and praying to their weapons, purity seals everywhere, Angels of death super Soldiers?

[@satanpuncher06]

Blade combat is a major element to the lore

[@marcoslopez127]

Go play Halo.

[@sashasky717]

cool top

[@SpruesNStuds]

Thanks for watching!

[@loic06100]

For me, Custodes is missing the party :)

[@matthewyoho5422]

While excellent figures, the Custodes don't fit the category of this top 10 list (since they're not actually space marines).

[@SpruesNStuds]

If I were not doing a marines only video, then the Custodes would have definitely been included.

[@Animefreakah]

Custodes man, no golden boys in a top 10 list makes me sad

[@SpruesNStuds]

Oh I would have included them in the video but the Custodes aren’t marines. But don’t worry there may be a future video…stay tuned

[@jedthementalist5112]

I ordered my 1st set of 40K figures from Joytoy recently, the Blood Angels Assault Terminators. Some dislike the smaller legs and lack of shading but as a BA fan from 2nd Edition, I think the vivid colours really pop on these old school Terminators. They look exactly like the tabletop kit. You mentioned you're a BA fan so I was wondering where you'd place them in this top 10... I can't stop my BA bias putting the Terminator Ancient at number 1. 🪧

[@SpruesNStuds]

Oh man I am BEYOND excited for the upcoming releases for the BA Assault Terminators especially the ones that are wielding the Thunder Hammer/ Storm Shields. As for where I would put them on my list, I am not too sure at this time. We will have to wait until we get the figures in our hands. So stay tuned...
