Tyranids. It'd be something different to model, *paint* and play then the usual "Humanoids with rifles" I get.

I would buy way more plastic Steel Legion than the one box of sisters I would add to my inq retinue. A proper new plastic IG line (as long as not Catachans...) could actually bring my interest in 40k back.

Greebo had spent an irritating two minutes in that box. Technically, a cat locked in a box may be alive or it may be dead. You never know until you look. In fact, the mere act of opening the box will determine the state of the cat, although in this case there were three determinate states the cat could be in: these being Alive, Dead, and Bloody Furious.
Orks always ride in single file to hide their strength and numbers.

Dark Eldar. When I recently decided to focus on a new army it was between them and Tyranids.
The deciding factor was how many Dark Eldar units I really liked were only in Finecast. :(

Dark Eldar. My plan from the beginning was to get them. Two 40k armies and one fantasy army later and I still don't have a single Dark Eldar model. I dont' know how this happens.

I nearly agree with you. Considering the speculation for a real SoB codex in the near future, I'll wait until they update to start buying into their army (or until my patience finally fails and I give up hope of an update).

I just bought Daemons, but want to also get a main force of CSM, but I cannot for the life of me find the will to paint! Everyone makes it look so easy and I suck so bad at it.

They seem a lot of fun and a tactically rewarding army since they have a resource to manage

I'm thoroughly hurt that you don't have my army on there. That's the second poll this week that forgot to put Dark Angels on it.
If I was getting a new army, it'd be sisters if they come out in plastic.

Tyranids.
I have SM, CSM, Orks and Dark Eldar. The Tyranids are a refreshing change from the bi-pedal races. They look more alien and the fact I wouldn't care if they died in droves as long as they close with the enemy and munch them appeals.
That said, I still have a hard time with the whole hands-for-guns thing the gaunts have (modelling) and I really couldn't afford to buy a decent sized force now that it's about £35 - £45 for a model, some units requiring 2-3 models for a squad to be effective and so on. Too much - not going to happen.

Sisters. Not that I need another army. Considering I'm sitting around waiting to see what happens with End times over in fantasy ..I may be picking up daemons next.
Technically speaking, right now I have 6,...not that I want space vampires...bleh.
Honestly...2 horde armies are more than enough...although it would be fun to just throw them both down on my side of the table once...
