Tyranids: Biovore
Biovores are living artillery pieces; swollen with the clutch of explosive Spore Mines that they nurture within their bodies. Upon anchoring itself to the ground with chitinous spurs; a Biovore undergoes violent spasms that expel its volatile offspring in high arcs as living ammunition. From there; the gas-bloated Spore Mines detonate in a shower of bone shards and acid rain; or else drift languidly down onto the battlefield; primed to explode whenever prey draws near.
This multipart plastic kit builds a Biovore – a sentient Tyranid mortar – as well as three floating Spore Mines. The Biovore's lumbering form supports a symbiotic dorsal launcher; its spore-sac bulging with biological explosives waiting to be fired. The Spore Mines can be launched onto the battlefield by the Biovore; or simply rain down from the skies. The kit offers several alternate leg poses and basing elements for the Biovore; as well as three distinct designs of Spore Mine; allowing you to maintain variety in your brood as you build a whole battery of artillery-beasts.
The Biovore in this kit can alternatively be built as a Pyrovore; a fire-spewing Tyranid creature.
This kit comprises 37 plastic components; and comes with a Citadel 80mm Round Base and 3x Citadel 25mm Round Bases. These miniatures are supplied unpainted and require assembly – we recommend using Citadel Plastic Glue and Citadel Colour paints.
