rumours 10th Ed Tyranids releases Rumours

[Xenith]

The Carnifex kit is about a decade old now, or even older (2010?) they have definitely replaced newer kits than that before. Dima would be the low hanging fruit to turn to plastic, and would be great to see.

Carnifex is nearly 20 years old, frommthe 4th edition codex circa 2005. Released at the same time as the current genestealer kit, the only Tyranids still in production that predate it are the hormagaunts and termagants from 3rd edition.

We know termagants are being replaced, I really hope hormagaunts and genestealers see an update too, though to be honest I wouldn't be upset if the Carnifex hangs around for a bit longer, it's aged surprisingly well.

Oh I really hope that's true...though would they be able to drop all that at once?

[Xenith]

My goodness, if even half of that is true, the Time of the Tyranid is now!

I took the liberty of sharing this juicy info with the rest of the site in the NRBA section:

Tbf none of that would suprise me. What old armourcast things dont have models as that seems to be the pool nids have drawn from. 

 

Also was there any source that mentioned deathleaper? I was fearing it was going way of the red terror til it was revealed. Deff will be new lictors and it does give a hint at their direction. Leaving vores just(90%sure both getting plasticated...) 

 

Which does leave giant plastic kit gap so this rumour works for me... diamacheron is just a giant lictor right...)

[ZeroWolf]

Either way we'll know in a month or so...possibly even sooner if Nids win Ogfram (I intend to play my part.)

[Brother Nathan]

was thinking many of the more recent nids were old armour cast models so thought may be relavent to check out what else we are missing that was theirs...

anyone anymore info on the following;

 

Tyranid Dactylis

Tyranid Malefactor- Is this the malceptor?

 

any others?

[Jscarlos18]

Details about the last rumour. Very unlikely, since it mentions Norn Emissary, Daethleaper and Harbinger only after they have been shown/namedropped by GW first:

 

 

I would love to see all of this happen, but almost 100% fake.

Agreed, still entertaining though, I'm just waiting till people start using AI art programs to generate 'leaked images' of these 'rumours'

[Brother Nathan]

Some rumours going around of pics from the rulebook... nornqueen/norn emmisary?

[Zoatibix]

Yeah, I did wonder if that was an Easter Egg.  

[Brother Nathan]

looks much like the heirophant without guns to me though...

[ZeroWolf]

We see the Norn Emissary in the lore section fighting in the custodes so maybe this is the "alternate build" of the Norn Assimilator or possibly even the Apex Swarm Lord that is also rumoured.

[Zoatibix]

Maybe it’s a Norn Queen asking “Are you doing your part?”

That looks more like an artistic depiction of the Tyranids, and an evolution of a piece of art shared by GW that was the cover in the special edition of the Great Devourer omnibus.

Very cool.

Seen a rumour... disagreed but apparently some thiink they can see new warriors in some of thenorn promos...

[ZeroWolf]

Interesting, I doubt It's the case as that would mean a 2nd wave of releases which I don't think they've done recently.

[Brother Nathan]

More likely i think therell be an upgrade sprue for warriors at some point

[The Pounder]

Wishful thinking I’d imagine.

 

I think we’ve seen everything we’re getting for now.

 

It would be cool to get a Warrior upgrade kit (especially wings!)

[ZeroWolf]

Watch the Shrikes get released through kill team 

[Brother Nathan]

Rather than a new topic as preorders are today... biovore base sizes are now 80.....!!! Im still upbasing as best i can but dang... thoughts

[Zoatibix]

My main thought is annoyance…yes annoyance rather than actual mere disappointment that the Pyrovore and Biovore are so incredibly similar.  The only visual difference between them is a bit on the two guns.

 

Maybe if GW had spent less time inventing unnecessary new units they could have spent a bit more time on that instead.

I don't know, I quite like the new guys, all the nids need now is something Knight class in plastic (since the Emissary is our centre piece now)
