Hi guys,

So the new Tyranid release is just about out and as you probably know there is still no Mycetic Spore model. At the moment I used plasma hatcher proxies as I've been patiently awaiting the official GW models. Since i'm not waiting another potential 2 years I've been doing a little shopping around for 3rd party spores. I know of all the most popular sculpts out there but they dont really appeal to me - however whilst browsing Google images I saw this;




I can't actually find any info about who made it and if it is actually available to purchase. Can anyone help me out?

I'm also quite interested in finding out more about this second pod;

The first one isn't for sale. it was made and cast specifically by a player for personal use. I believe he sold a couple on ebay, but he doesn't sell them really (he also did an awesome Tervigon).

The second is from some french site I simply cannot remember the name of.

There's some others you should check out as well. Maxmini have one (IMO the best on the market), as do chapterhouse, though it looks more like a vagina covered in vaginas, and a few ebay sellers have decent spore pods too.

The first one reminds me of a Starship Troopers Plasma Bug's butt that is oozing something out O.o

Yep Loki as I mentioned I already know of the CH and MM sculpts but they don't appeal to me nearly as much as the first or second one. The second pods image I got from the French website it probably originated from, but as it was all in French I had no idea how to navigate it.

I'd love to try and hunt the sculpter of the first one down, it's such a nice sculpt.
