Well, you have probably heard about the giant Khorne tank thing, and the Necron Monolith/Doom Monolith, so what do you think? Go wild about what you want for the new Apocalypse.

Medusa V tomb stalker, I've been waiting for it for YEARS.

Think a Tervigon. But as big as a Heirophant, and tougher. Slightly less firepower (only one gun), but massively powerful psychic abilities.
And it can poop out stuff, just like the Tervigon. But instead of being limited to Termagants, it can poop out anything (since the 4th edition codex turned them into breederbeasts up there with Norn Queens as well). Though I'd probably say only stuff smaller than a Heirodule.
Give me that GW. Please.

Bigger. Lots bigger. That's the size of Forgeworlds redone Heirodule (since it's based on that model), and Dominatrixes were much bigger. I think they're one of those things that really shouldn't be downsized too much.
Because it had one in Epic. It was a Hive Tyrant fused to a much larger body. Something that'll probably be dropped if they redid it, because it goes against what makes the modern Tyranid aesthetic work.

Ah, that explains it. Yes, hopefully, the new version would be better.
Of course, we are talking about a company who thought that the Khorne Blower / Skulldozer / Lord of Battle 2013 had a good design...

It looks like what happens when a triceratops, a biovore and that alien from independence day had a threesome.
I think it looks pretty rad
Who keeps making these things? They don't look like FW.
I have no idea, but I think if they aren't already hired, they have a great future in model making.
And if the FW Dactilys looks anything like that, there's no way it can't have a two plus armor save and uber high toughness. It just looks so well protected and hunkered down.

Only from the front though. The rear looks really vulnerable. I'm sure all it would take is 1 plasma round to make that sac go boom. Not sure how you would word it (as MCs don't have facings, so there is technically no "behind," iirc), but that would open up some tactical elements.

It really does make me want to use chitin shields for armored shell beasties though.

Although every time I fielded one I'd probably be playing this.

Warhounds, Revenants, Cobras, Scorpions, Tigersharks, Fire Lords, Doomwings, Subjugators, Hell Talons, Hell Blades, Thunderbolts, Marauders, new and redesigned Heirodules, and I suppose even the flying brick that is the Thunderhawk.
If I were to REALLY pile on the wishlisting, then I'd toss in the Phantoms and Reavers, but I don't see that as likely, even in fantasyland.
Oh, and I forgot...The Storm Eagle. The only actually good looking SM flyer that GW/FW has done.

Superheavy Banblade chasis Cathedral tank for Sisters

Please NO new Space marine flyers or stupid gaint walkers - the only decent ones thus made are the Storm Eagle and Thunderhawk.
Maybe some Heresy era legacy Astartes Suprheavy tanks that are arefacts........

Never played Apoc, but maybe the return of the "Redemption force" for the Deathwing, maybe a "Hunter " formation with the Ravenwing that specializes in taking down Monstrous creatures (like the old knights on Caliban did)
Maybe a Knight Titan household for the IoM, or at least a model for them.
I'd personally love to see the old Tyranid Monstrosities make a comeback, such as the Haruspex, Malefactor, Exocrine, etc, though mainly the Malefactor - I'd love to play around with the idea of a tyranid transport. (Old, old rules let it transport up to 14 wounds of tyranid.)
However, I think the Hierodules desperately need a rules update. Wraithknight has almost identical stats for some 400 points cheaper :(
