BUILT FOR THE TABLETOP GENERAL
Modular Display, Engineered for Painted Miniatures
The WarSplay® Hero is a heavy-duty 9-slot modular miniature display stand engineered for centrepiece models—monsters, mounted commanders, and elite cavalry units. Built for tabletop miniatures using 26mm to 80mm bases, including Warhammer 40,000® miniatures mounted on bases within that range — check the base diameter of your models before ordering.
Give your army's centrepiece the spotlight it deserves. It's the smarter way to fill a glass cabinet or shelf with your largest models—a large miniature display stand that provides the necessary breathing room for dynamic, high-detail showpieces. Built in our UK workshop, it is designed to stand alone as a statement plinth for a single showcase model—or lock seamlessly into your wider modular WarSplay® display.
- 9-Slot Specialist Layout: Features one dedicated 80mm slot for monsters and centrepiece heroes, plus one 75x42mm slot for cavalry, bikers, and mounted commanders.
- Stadium Visibility: The tiered angled design ensures your larger models dominate the display without obscuring the units behind them.
- Universal Large-Scale Fit: Remaining slots optimised for elite infantry and character models on 40mm and 50mm bases.
- Cabinet & Shelf Optimised: Maximises vertical and horizontal space in popular IKEA units, including the Kallax, Detolf and Billy. Measure your shelf before ordering, as internal dimensions vary between models.
- Anti-Glare Matte Finish: Specialised matte surface absorbs cabinet lighting glare so your paintwork stays the focal point.
- Infinite Modularity: Flat-edged sides slot seamlessly with the WarSplay® Classic, Classic Mini, Hero Mini, and XL to build a complete army display.
- Magnet-Ready (optional): Add a self-adhesive steel plate and neodymium magnets for a secure, transportable hold.
- UK Made, 2-Day Dispatch: Designed and manufactured in our independent UK workshop. Pre-assembled, ready out of the box.
Whatever you collect, the Hero also makes a striking gift for the miniature painter, wargamer or tabletop gamer in your life—an easy birthday, Christmas, Father's Day or hobby-anniversary present.
Ideal for: Monsters, walkers, dreadnought-scale models, mounted heroes, cavalry, vehicles, gang bosses, warband leaders, large roleplay monsters, and any painted wargaming centrepieces on 40–80mm bases.
“But what about dust?” WarSplay is open-air by design — because it's built to live inside the glass cabinet you already own. The cabinet is the case; the stand is the stage. Tiered rows turn one flat shelf into two or three fully visible ranks, the matte finish kills cabinet-light glare, and upkeep is a soft brush every few weeks. Prefer fully sealed? A premium acrylic case suits a single centrepiece — WarSplay is built for the army behind it.

Game Compatibility
Every WarSplay® stand is engineered around standard tabletop base sizes — see the base-size range listed in this product's description — so it fits the vast majority of miniatures mounted on standard round and oval bases.
Will it hold my Warhammer 40,000® miniatures? Yes, where those miniatures are mounted on bases within the range stated for this product. Models are sold on several different base sizes, so check the base diameter of your particular miniatures before ordering.

Will it fit in my IKEA Kallax, Detolf or Billy?
Yes. Every WarSplay® stand has a compact footprint that maximises space inside popular IKEA units — the Kallax cube, Detolf cabinet and Billy bookcase — as well as standard glass display cabinets. Fit several side-by-side on a single shelf, or stack the modular system to fill an entire cabinet. Internal shelf dimensions vary between models and revisions, so measure your shelf before ordering.

How do the modules connect?
Every WarSplay® unit uses a hexagonal flat-edge interlocking design. Modules slot together gap-free in any direction, letting you build wider squad displays, deeper army formations, or stack vertically. Mix and match Classic, Hero, Classic Mini and Hero Mini units to create custom layouts that fit your shelf, desk or cabinet.
What about larger bases — vehicles, monsters, characters?
WarSplay® has a stand for every base size. The Classic and Classic Mini handle standard infantry up to 32mm; the Hero Mini adds 40–50mm character slots; and the Hero takes large 80mm monsters, vehicles and cavalry. Every unit connects seamlessly into one modular system.
What is it made from?
WarSplay® stands are precision-crafted in our UK workshop from a high-density matte composite engineered to absorb cabinet lighting rather than reflect it. The result is zero glare hotspots and a clean, smudge-resistant finish that keeps the focus on your paintwork — not on the stand itself.
