I thought they were great. No fething about with two-part heads and different weapon arms. I prefer them to the standard kit.
They sound the same as the current snap-fit termagants...
https://www.games-workshop.com/en-AU/Tyranid-Termagants They just come with Fleshborers, no 2 part heads, decent models and when you have 30+ of the buggers it's hard to tell the difference. Much quicker to assemble than the multipart ones. The only downside is they don't come with a Ripper swarm and I like me some Rippers.
I've always disliked the size of the current termagants, they're supposed to be weedy rules-wise and yet the models are huge, in that sense I prefer the 2nd edition or even rogue trader termagants.
