It looks good, but the Winged Tyranid Prime is one of those models that needs MORE ANGLES. A good model, I like it, but it doesn’t photograph that well because there is a LOT going on!

Never been tempted by Tyranids, aside from genestealers, but now… OH YEAH.
I don't hate the pose, but I hate the fact that it looks monopose. And knowing its new which means it'll probably rules thatll be Meta and youll need 3 of them.
The one downside to this wing pose, is that it makes wing patterns harder.
Or maybe it's more that wing patterns are just so easy with spread wings, as you can just go in and paint or airbrush them on, no need to estimate how the folds distort and hide the pattern.
Still really like the model, I do hope that we'll get a Shrike box with options for a winged prime, analogue to the Warriors, just so we're not stuck with scything talons, even though they look really cool.
Why is it that people gripe about the flying things? Just stick a lead weight under the base and it won't tip over.
It's a menacing looking model, not 100% sold on it as it doesn't feel quite like a nid, also, what is your intro music ?
Technically you had a 360° in the form of a video.
I have 2 problems with this bad boy, first is the pose, maybe not hive tyrant level of pose but something more impossing, second is the wing positiok, it feels weird having the wings beneath the arms, i prefer the wings behind the arms, maybe having it like that could change the options for a more impossing pose, maybe like its landing or about to start flying instead of mid air.
I love the new Tyranid models kinda sad i got the 43 miniature box before the new ones
im 100% with you
i think this angle REALLY doesnt show it off well, i hope it looks better from other angles but from this one to me it looks like its doing the thriller dance while falling over
i feel like side on it will look amazing, but here idk, it just hasnt wowed me
It looks like it just fell down and is having trouble getting up 😮
I think those two poses show enough for a preview, will look forward to seeing it from the back though.
They've done well with this
this pose looks really shite, lob sided, top heavy. and the wings are wrong, they are just arms rather than the wing membranes running down the body and are in the wrong place, gargoyle and flyrant are both top winged, this is bottom winged
it does not look terrifying that tyranids should be, very little thought was put into this model
the new style of tyranid is fantastic, but the pose choices for this model is just piss poor
I would like to know if this is a monopose model.
It’s going to be cool to see if you can switch the wings from bottom to top when the individual boxed set comes out
They should totally put a 360° view like on the webstore when they do previews!
This guy looks really cool. Definitely adding it to the list of nids I need to buy once 10th is in full swing 😀
I think it's begging for 4 arms as well as wings like it should have. Same mistake they made with the tyrant model.
I think the second pic looks much better. Pretty hype to get some new nids. Best army to have your way with artistically
I’m wanting to see the kitbashs more than the new tyranids themself
The model looks like it is changing targets after landing.
I don't really agree on the "identifability" aspect, how do you tell a Repulsor and Executioner apart, they look almost the same too, it's not a big deal. I think the pose is so you can have him and his mates squished up together in melee without the wings knocking each other about for sure.
I don’t really like the pose at all. It’s a nice model but the wings should be spread out it would fit the model better. The purpose of wings on a model is to look glorious, folding them in, from purely an aesthetic standpoint, is a waste of potential
"With the wings open it would be hard to differentiate the two."
Ah yes, the Tyranid Prime begin a fancy Tyranid Warrior, that's half the size of the Tyrant…Yes it would be hard to tell them apart…
Love it! Going to look so good next to my flyrant.
We need to see the back, there maybe a saddle.
To me it looks like it's doing that "Hey, babe…" bar lean. Except instead of a bar it's just leaning on one of its wings.
It spins in the reveal trailer
I like him he's landed and ready to mess someone up in malee
I am seriously considering starting a tyranid army some time in the future…
Model looks great. Lots of potential. Hopefully looks better in person. Nice video. Keep up the good work.
I feel like 2000s Tyranids just looked… more like Tyranids than the newer stuff does
