Infiltrating Broodlord
|
We got a sneak peek at the UK White Dwarf... almost certain the Tervigon/T'Fex is £35. If not, £36. Was too busy ogling the photos to really make a note of the prices.
Dropped in to the GW store later, it is hilarious how the staff are not even allowed to respond to questions. I kind of like how they're buttoned down so tight,.
In case anyone doesn't know, you can order tomorrow for delivery or collection in store on March 3 (UK). The bone swords etc are direct order only..

$53.75 for the Tyrant? I sense a new pricing archetype
Also from the Red Terror
The Red Terror makes an excellent centrepiece for a unit of Raveners. Alternatively it could be used as a Tyranid Prime equipped with an abundance of scything talons.
Bah

Mostly cause that's ridiculously expensive in my local currency, but as I didn't know the previous price it's not too bad now.

Yeah it looks like the Terivgon / Tyrannosaurus Fex can quite easily be magnetised. The only question is if the sac has to be left in two bits and fitted around the torso, or if it will just clip on.

Not only that, but the Terivgon is a whole £1 cheaper than the Trygon! This is a crazy new world.

It's rather strange and surprising that they're trying to phase out the Tyranid weapons sprue they usually include in Carnifex and old Tyrant kits.

The Tyrant needed at least 2 sprues anyway, so better include most options on them rather than include a third sprue and make the box even more expensive.
BTW nice to see 5 bone swords/sabres plus two lower bodies (one for the Flyrant) in the Tyrant box for conversions.

The Swarmlord's swords don't look like his codex art. They look more like bone 'dirks' than bone 'sabres'.
The Flyrant, though, looks amazing. Love the wingspan.

Fortunately, the Tyrant's non-Bonedirk Boneswords are included.
I'd imagine many people using two in place of two of the bonedirks.

Even if they did take him, the old Old One Eye is just an outdated looking model. It has the vintage-appeal, but shoving the half-skull Carnifex Head on a Carnifex is just as good and is consistent with the rest of the modern line.

They used the same model that THQ used for him in DOW II: Redemption.

Yarp Not that most people used the Deathspitters, but still...I guess at the price point they are unwilling to pack another sprue.
