Ok, so a few months back I move into a house with a few other room-mates.
There was a lot of warhammer stuff in the basement, but all stuff I've seen before.
Except this one seemingly Nid model. It's basically a half "submerged" sand slug looking monstrosity, with what looks like a gigantic venom cannon coming out of it's back.
Does anyone have any idea what this model is? My experience with the hobby only goes back 6 years and I fear I'm not veteran enough to be able to remember this thing.

When you call an intimate moment with your partner "the Assault Phase"
Is that followed by a pile-in move?
That brings a whole new meaning to the term "Hit and Run"
Can that be following a deep strike, or do you have to wait until the next round? |

If there's a lot of old 40K stuff lying around, me and many other people no doubt would like to plunder that collection, if you can get a list up of what there is.

Thanks a lot guys, and Luna. That's definitely the model.
Mattlov - I'll check with the current owner to see if he wants to keep it.
Anarchyman99 - Well, thanks to your pictures, I also seemingly have a Malefactor downstairs too.
Thanks all for helping me ID these models.

Maybe it's a new version of the lictor, sacrificing stealth for the appearance of cuddly innocence. It loses the scything talons but gains a 3+ "too cute to shoot at" invulnerable save. Probably has an implant attack tongue just to be extra creepy.
