Unboxing & Review of JoyToy x Warhammer 40K Cadian Commander and Veteran with Regimental Standard

[@marioshobbyhq]

Cadia will stand in my shelves! I had them preordered despite the proportions being quite ridiculous (hands and weapons, mainly) ... But this is 40k and "in the grim darkness of the far future, there is only war" with ridiculously oversize weapons! BTW JOYTOY replied to me on IG that there hands are direct ports from the minis - so blame Game Workshop, I guess (even if JT could have done some changes for sure: I can't pose these cadians near normal JT soldier figures!)

[@SpruesNStuds]

I suppose that it doesn't really surprise me that JT really doesn't have that much leeway to change their action figures a little bit. I suppose we have to embrace some of the proportion issues. Speaking of proportions, what do you think of the Grey Knight weapon handles on the Interceptor and Strike squads??? Hahahaha

[@andreselgueta9673]

Nice cadian soldiers. I do like astra militarum figures too, the hammer of the emperor! Aside from the funny proportions this are very acurate in view of the GW minis. I bougth the veteran sergeant with his cigar and its dope. To this point i think that the tempestus scions (command squad) are the coolest AM releases. The Sentinel looks incredible in the pictures. So, JT announced the new grey knights figures, and the Horus Heresy VII Legion figures. What a good time to be a collector! Thanks for another cool review brother Sprues, its good to see other than space marines under your scope. Keep it up!

[@SpruesNStuds]

Yeah that Catachan veteran sergeant which is made to look like the dude on Predator is awesome. As I am replying to this comment later, yes I did see the GK strike and interceptor figures and the weapon handles on some of them are uh...questionable looking

[@tyleranderson5183]

What an odd coincidence, my two Cadians showed up today!…along with Morvenn Vahl!😅 (quite the contrast between “future space GI Joes” and the most golden, high-gothic baby carrier ever!🤣) Had to get the one with the power fist, he’s great, lots of personality… and I also got the one with the regimental standard, mostly because he seemed the most “rank-and-file” with the standard lasguns, not necessarily the standard (looks good, but I don’t like how precarious it is while displaying it…would have been better as a cloth material?) …Now to wait for that Sentinel…😉

[@tyleranderson5183]

…and while I joke about the “golden baby carrier”…Morvenn Vahl still looks *very* good, and definitely puts the other Paragon Warsuits to shame!😉🤩 (Unfortunately…the unhelmeted head is a bit too large, like the size of a space marine’s head instead of a normal human…which is a shame😕)

[@SpruesNStuds]

I just finished up reviewing the Morvenn Vahl and yes the head is a but odd looking.

[@SpruesNStuds]

You won't be waiting long for that Sentinel!

[@SamLaw0]

Nice, as I'm only into SMs thanks for reviewing. And 🎉 first like & comment👍

[@SpruesNStuds]

I'm glad I was able to give you a bit of a varied view. However, I think that I will also have to narrow my focus on Marines because I am running out of space

[@kgb85MD]

Any news on the Lion delivery dates ?

[@SpruesNStuds]

Well, as I am replying later than usual, the Lion should have been released already. I am currently waiting to get him into my grubby hands.

[@kgb85MD]

@@SpruesNStuds same here i've recived an email that they are sending him over and he should be arriving soon the thing was that i've placed the order in October and they just kept silen ever since i was pretty nerves 143.99 is not a joke summ to waste or give away for nothing

[@robertkevindelcastillo7087]

I was really disappointed with how they handled the ridiculous proportions.. I was waiting for the longest time for the Cadians only to be disappointed with how they came out i was hoping that it would be like the Astra Militarrium figures they released before but these Cadians look really cartoony and bulky.

[@jameshsu8303]

Cadia gone

[@SpruesNStuds]

Indeed it is...however Cadia is in the heart of its people
