51-08 Tyranids: Hive Tyrant

Hive Tyrants are the massive, battlefield commanders of the Tyranid swarm, enacting the raw will of the Hive Mind. As powerful warrior organisms, each is a deadly foe with a depth of sentient autonomy and strategic cunning. Every part of their body is perfectly sculpted for one purpose: to maim, kill, and consume—and to guide lesser bioforms to do the same.

This multipart plastic kit builds one Hive Tyrant, an impressive and incredibly versatile leader-beast that can be built to take on a variety of battlefield roles. This looming creature is a fitting centrepiece for any Tyranid army – it boasts a distinctive chitinous shell studded with chimneys, a snarling head with a cruel horn, and a hideous skeletal underbody.

• Builds 1 Hive Tyrant with a huge variety of weapons options, including two scything talons, a heavy venom cannon, a stranglethorn cannon, and a bonesword and a lash whip – as well as biomorphs like adrenal glands and toxin sacs, plus other components for customisation.
• You can also choose to build this kit as flying Winged Hive Tyrant, or the insidious Swarmlord.
  
• This set comprises 59 plastic components and is supplied with a Citadel 60mm Round Base.
• This miniature is supplied unpainted and require assembly – we recommend using Citadel Plastic Glue and Citadel paints.
