40K SNEAK PEEK: Tyranid Mystery Bugs

Look what’s been floating about the tubes today Tyranid fans!

Now that is a mighty interesting creature there. It looks part Zoanthrope, Ravenor, Malanthrope, with a dash of Lictor for flavoring…

Various advance price lists are now showing up with the following creepy crawlies on them:

Pyrovore: (rumored to be a fire-based biovore variant giving the nids a strong indirect fire option)
Toxathrope: (probably the bug above, and sounding like a minor variant of a malanthrope/zoanthrope based on its name, size, and appearance)
Trygon: (the big guy himself, but still no word of whether its in the codex, or Apocalypse only)

~What do you guys think? Looks like we’ll find out in January, probably sooner. You can follow all the latest developments in the Lounge here.
