SNEAK PEEK: The First Nids Arrive

It was only a matter of time.  The first sighting of a Tyranid kit is doing the rounds.  Here’s the details:

Tyranid Rumor Roundup

Hmm, so this looks like a box of Hive Guard.

– It’s Plastic
– 3 models per box
– New alternative weapon
– Centurion sized 50mm base (I think…)

Ok, so the interesting thing is that they redid this kit at all.  This looks to be another sign that Finecast is being targeted for replacement.  GW looks to want OUT of the Finecast business aside from some low volume characters here and there.

Also, with all the missing units that need kits and Finecast replacements – this seems like too many kits for a standard one-month release slot.  We may be looking at a December-January 2-month window like we saw with Dark Elves.

Have at it folks!
