Welcome to our second Forge World un-boxing article. Our first one, the Tau Manta, went over pretty well, so we’re going to do a few more and see how you all like them.
This time we have the Necron Tomb Stalker, featuring many, many of the same part.
It would definitely be nice to have a bunch of extras for conversions now that the new codex is out.
The Kit
Necron Tomb Stalker available for 38 pounds from Forge World.
The Tomb Stalker is a previously unseen type of Necron construct armed with potent Gauss weaponry and razor-edged talons, which adds a devastating mix of firepower and combat ability to any Necron army. The Tomb Stalker is a huge, un-living machine, a swift and tireless engine of murder built to eternally protect the ancient sepulchres of the Necron Lords. The arcane machinery of the Tomb Stalker detects the pulse of life through hundreds of metres of solid rock, unerringly homing in on its unwitting prey and using a form of phase field to part solid matter like water. The Tomb Stalker is a full resin kit which includes Necron green plastic rods and an oval plastic base. Model designed by Will Hayes. –Courtesy FW’s site

So that’s it. Like I said pretty cool kit with lots of conversion potential.
