Sometimes the hobby is not just about painting and rolling dice, it is also about unapologetically wearing a massive power armor helmet in your living room.
This article leans hard into that energy with JOYTOY’s latest Warhammer gear, moving from Captain Titus cosplay into full Unforgiven mode. Earlier this year they dropped the Titus Space Marine 2 helmet and it clearly went down well. Now they are circling back with a Dark Angels themed Mk X helmet plus a fresh wave of Horus Heresy era MkIII Legionary figures. Consequently, it is a very good time to be both a collector and a Dark Angels enjoyer.
The Dark Angels Mk X Helmet – Wearable Heresy Secrets Included
JOYTOY’s new wearable helmet is styled as Mk X plate, but this time finished in the Dark Angels’ signature deep green. The forehead carries the classic sword emblem, so there is no doubt which Chapter you are repping. Like the Titus helmet, it includes an adjustable internal headband so it can fit most human heads, although Primarch scale craniums are probably still out of luck. Additionally, the eye lenses can be illuminated with built in lights powered by a single AAA battery, which is perfect for that ominous glow when you turn the room lights down.
You can grab the helmet on its own, or bundled with a display stand that looks like it has been ripped straight from a gothic deck plate in the 41st Millennium. The stand features the Dark Angels Chapter badge front and center, so even when you are not wearing it, the whole setup looks great on a shelf or next to your painting desk. Moreover, if you pre order through the Warhammer Officially Licensed Merch Store, you also get a Dark Angels graphic t shirt for free, which is a very on brand little bonus.
MkIII Legionaries March In – Seven Legions, One Shelf Problem
The helmet is not the only thing JOYTOY is pushing this time. They are also releasing a new wave of MkIII armored Legionary action figures set in the Horus Heresy era. These are not locked to a single Legion either. Instead, you can pick from Space Wolves, Imperial Fists, Blood Angels, Ultramarines, Thousand Sons, Sons of Horus, and Alpha Legion. Consequently, that covers a big chunk of the classic Heresy lineup in one drop.
Each figure is designed to slot in with JOYTOY’s existing Warhammer range, so they can either stand guard over your display cabinets or lurk ominously behind your actual Horus Heresy armies. Furthermore, the variety of Legions means you can theme your picks to your tabletop force or just collect your favorite traitors and loyalists side by side. All of these MkIII Legionaries are available to pre order from the Warhammer Merch store right now, which makes it very easy to justify “just one more” to watch over your dice.
Summary
In short, this reveal is a nice combo of wearable cosplay level kit and chunky display figures that lean into both modern and Heresy era Warhammer. The Dark Angels Mk X helmet gives you a very tangible way to pledge yourself to the First Legion, complete with light up lenses and a display stand that feels authentically grimdark. At the same time, the MkIII Legionaries wave lets you bring home key Legions from the Great Crusade and Horus Heresy as highly detailed action figures. So if you like your hobby shelves guarded by suspicious robed angels and ancient plate clad Legionaries, this drop is absolutely aimed at you.
