40K RUMORS: Tyranids Upcoming Wave Tidbits
So everyone’s all atwitter regarding the next wave of Tyranids said to coming later in 2011. Here’s the latest morsels floating around the tubes.
via everyone’s favorite Stickmonkey:
Lots of internal rumbling on a 2nd wave of tyranids. I don’t have timelines, but expect it to hit before end of year, but after dark eldar releases complete that codex.
First, a new tyrant model is soon to debut. It has options for the swarm lord. It has some slight differences from the current metal, but is basically similar. I do think it stands between an inch or more higher, but not as tall as a trygon. I did not have an existing tyrant to compare. Wings are supposedly in the kit, but I did not see those.
Second, a harpy has been done, and will either be in this release or in the “summer of flyers”
For metals,
There is a doom and parasite sculpted. They look as expected. Doom is fairly dynamic, parasite is a bit bigger than I thought and will likely use the larger skimmer base.
And a new yrgarll genestealer in metal…think flash gitz
Stickmonkey has some more speculative stuff in that link, but this is the “harder info”. Have at it gang.
