Command the Great Devourer

From the edge of the void, the Hive Tyrant asserts control with an imposing presence. This multipart plastic model captures a towering bioform with chitinous armor, taut musculature, and a chilling gaze, ready to lead a Tyranid swarm across the tabletop. The poseable kit invites you to choose a stance that fits your battalion’s mood, whether looming over the frontline or wheeling to strike at unguarded flanks. The first hints of movement become a narrative moment as you assemble and bring your paintwork to life.

Designed to embody a Tyranid swarm’s strategic intent, the Hive Tyrant can be armed to suit your preferred playstyle. The kit blends a dramatic silhouette with flexible customization, offering a centerpiece that can be tailored from the tabletop to dramatic display boards.
