It seems steam get that it references (Codex: Tyranids) for the Spore mine clusters, and not a page reference.

In all seriousness, I am fulling supporting this release.

I've gotten a Toxicrene and Maleceptor (Despite the terrible rules), and am going to get at least 3 spore kits.

when we get some more info on the Zoey box, I'll figure out how many boxes of that to get.

The data sheet for the Mucolid could be in the upcoming campaign book on page 52.

Im away for two weeks and all this stuff drops

Really excited over the pods, gives Nids a nice new tactical angle.

.....Oh...for the love of.

Damnit GW. Stop making me buy White Dwarf for the rules. I've been nearly 2 years clean and now I've had to go buy two on the trot because of these 'nid releases.

Good thing about the Neurothrope?

It just means I get to repurpose my Malanthrope conversion...

Oh man I am very excited about this, it all looks bloody amazing! time to bring back the horde

Also are the rules for these buggers in the box they come with, or if you dont get the white dwarf you are fethed??

Apparently they'll also be in the Shield of Baal: Leviathan campaign book too.

Or, you know, posted repeatedly in this forum.

Yes, re-post that the right way up thanks.

I posted it from my phone, and when it posted it switched. Then I went into my photos, flipped it up side down and reposted it... It was still upside down. Finally got it to work. Stupid phones.

Oh the joys of being work blocked :(

The gifts keep on coming! Those Venomthropes look excellent... and that Neurothrope! Wow!

Ah, that explains it...work blocked... :(

*edit- Thanks, i saw them on his blog. no pics of the actual Zoanthrope build, the others look nice! It's a good time to be a 'Nid player!

Thanks for updating the OP, RiTides!

How old was the finecast Venomthrope model anyway? 2 years? GW is replacing pretty darn fast

Its on reference to the rule book coming in the baal campaign.

Its no Doom, but Neurothrope still looks good! Is it too much to hope for a dual Biovore/Pyrovore kit just to (almost) fully plasticize Nids?

And purportedly in the box...

There's another kit with the venomthrope pic. Summats and spore mines.

I might be missing some reference, but it is the Doom in the same way that the Tyrannocyte is the Mycetic Spore. It even has a Spirit Leech psychic power.

The old spirit leech was a passive effect to every enemy unit within range THEN it also got psychic powers which for a time included psi-shriek if you wanted.

Anyone complaining that it isn't the same is being naive. There was no way even had it been an official re-do of the Doom that it was going to maintain its previous effect.

Oh god I hope the Neurothrope is gonna be worthwhile, the model is awesome, maybe it could be our long range anti tank...maybe... most likely not though considering its the NEUROthrope, vehicules dont have neurones

Pre-order photos for the Tyrannocyte are up on GW's site!

That neurothrope looks fantastic and the cheeky grin he's got on his face puts me in mind of old nids - really old nids! A nice throwback whilst still being very modern otherwise.

The venomthopes look great too - I really like the design they've gone for - they look all whispy whippy!

GW is aiming to replace all Finecast into plastic as quick as they can. They tried to get Finecast to work but it never has and now its got such bad associations that even if they perfected it its still a marketing disaster. So instead of battling on they are dropping it and shifting fully to plastic. We'll see a lot of armies start to drop finecast options and get new plastics -

I thought it came out with the Fifth edition codex, so closer to four I think?

The original (metal) Venomthrope was released in January 2010.

So almost five. I wasn't too far off.
