GW plunge new depths with those hairy topped abominations. Did they get a blind 3 year old to design them.
Awefull.
Nids are nids and not very inspirational apart from a couple of the Forgeworld ones.

Love the Lictor...totally despise the rediculous oversculpted Vostroyans.

A little comparison might be useful...

I like the nids.
I dont' like the V's because at first glance - of the first pic anyway - I didn't know if they were for 40K or WFB.

The first Tyranid is awfully Cthulu'esque to me....
The soldiers look....um.....what is the right word.....DUMB!!
Actually if they took off those terribly sculpted fur hats, and replaced them with a stylized helmet...they might not be too bad....still bad mind you, just not AS bad!

didn't GW already have a line of IG in fur lined coats but with noticably less dumb hats?
the tyranid sculpts are relatively standard for GW, but the paint job is really nice

Valhala.
But I think it's the paint job that's not doing them justice

Yeah, the paint job looks cool. More details then the precedent versions IMHO.

Stupid hats and rubbish poses spoil what could have been reasonable minis.
The colours they've been painted in are also garbage. Nids just suck.

I think the furhats would make nice Winterguard for Warmachine Khador.
Everything GW does is over-the-top. I kinda like these. Not enough to buy some, but hey...

These Vostroyons are pure crap. It looks liek the are trying to rip off the Khador mini's from PP.
The nids are nids and do nothing for me. The paint jobs are nice though.
