This weeks line up courtesy of BoLS.
Tyranid Toxicrene / Maleceptor $73
The Toxicrene looms over the scuttling broods it accompanies to battle, thrashing at those that venture too close with it’s tentacle-limbs. Yet it’s the toxic, choking clouds of spores that blast out from the Toxicrene’s dorsal chimneys that give the beast it’s fell reputation.
This 55-piece plastic kit makes one Toxicrene with a crown of dorsal chimneys and twelve huge, lashing tentacles. The miniature is poised atop its latest victim – a crushed Space Marine Terminator.
This kit can alternatively be built as a Maleceptor.
The Maleceptor is a living vessel for the Hive Mind. Warp energy spears from its eyeless cranium to vaporise anything in its path, and those with minds strong enough to survive its keening psychic screams are laid low by its powerful talons.
This 55-piece plastic kit makes one Maleceptor equipped with a pair of scything talons, which can be posed crouching or rearing up on its hind limbs.
This kit can alternatively be built as a Toxicrene.
