Harpies/Hive Crone

Harpies are monstrous bioforms that fly with a deftness and agility unattainable by even the most sophisticated fighter-craft. As they soar overhead, they rain clusters of living bombs onto prey worlds and spit death from their forelimbs. The Hive Crone is a flying monstrosity used by the Tyranids to establish air superiority over prey worlds. It is a creature perfectly adapted to aerial combat, able to wrestle enemy aircraft out of the skies.

Both kits share the same body and wings (including scything talons) with specific differences as detailed below.

The Harpy can be armed with either a twin-linked stranglethorn cannon or twin-linked venom cannon. There is a unique head featuring a long tongue and head crest and its carapace is distinguished by a series of vertical fins. The tail points upwards and spore mine cysts can be added to the rear of the model. There are also 3 separate spore mines included, each of which has a unique design.

The Hive Crone is distinguished by the delightfully disgusting, sack-fed drool cannon. The crest on its head also features a series of fins, whilst the body’s carapace sports a set of chimneys. There is also the option to add 4 tentaclids to the underside of the model.

Haruspex/Exocrine

The Haruspex is a ferocious beast created to consume biomass at a sickening pace. It can devour an entire platoon of soldiers in a matter of moments, shovelling victim after victim into its jaws without pause. Exocrines are feared for their ability to deal death from afar. The Exocrine is purely a means of transportation for the bio-plasmic cannon nested into its flesh, a giant weapon able to unleash a vast ball of roaring energy, or several focussed streams of death from its multiple barrels.

Both kits share the same body, and rear and middle legs. Either version can also be armed with a thresher scythe tail biomorph.

The Haruspex’s most obvious feature is its grasping tongue that comes as part of an inside out stomach containing 3 sets of jaws. It’s also armed with a pair of crushing claws and has a horned head specific to this monster.

The Exocrine is armed with a massive bio-plasmic cannon that sits atop the creature’s body. It also comes with a pair of scything talons and has a unique head.

I noticed the gant/gaunt broods are priced wrong, either in the WD or online. in the WD they're £20 but on the store its £27. not as much of a better deal any more :|

So you think nid players will be joining the CSM players in the corner?

We know now that Warp Blast is a Witchfire that is either a S5 AP3 small blast or a S10 AP1 Lance, and Flying Hive Tyrants can roll it up

Those prices though...

Haruspex $100 AUD - Not really a surprise given the recent Carnosaur kit costs the same too. Not too happy about it though as none of our other monsters - a few of which are bigger - before this release were over $96.
Harpy $115 AUD - Ugh. This is the killer for me. I was hoping for $90. Granted, my initial reaction was bad, but now I'm looking at this in a new light. Stormravens are $110. The Harpy model is the only monstrous creature kit to ever come with a flying stand, making it by far the largest - it will probably end up being 1.5x or 2x the size of the Flying Hive Tyrant, for example. Was hoping for less but eh, I can live with it.
Tyrant/Hive Guard $90 AUD - Exactly as Centurions. No surprises. Good stuff.
Warriors $65 AUD - They stayed the same price as the old kit, got an update, added bits to make an official Tyranid Prime, and added extra stuff in too? Awesome!
Tyranid Swarm $265 - Oh yes, this is a great value box indeed. The reason for the solo Carnifex being the lone monster in the kit is that it can be used to make Old One Eye to lead the swarm. It's a playable army of....probably 1000 points right out of the box. Fantastic!
Carnifex Brood $130 AUD - Price drop of $36. What more can we ask for?

Overall, these prices are pretty darn good. The Haruspex and the Harpy are a bit higher than I would have liked, but they aren't too bad when you look at - particularly in the Harpy's case - what they represent.

Only excited because it is one day closer to new IG stuff

huh... it´s cheaper than the Storm Raven in Euros... weird... not by much but still...
