Tyranids: Lictor

Lictors are a sinister adaptation of the Tyranid Warrior bioform, specialising in infiltration, reconnaissance, and assassination. Cloaked by chameleonic scales, these vanguard beasts stalk their prey beyond the synapse network of the Hive Mind, guiding the rest of the swarm to new targets with a potent pheromone trail. Lictors are opportunistic in their choice of prey, always ready to crack open the skull of an unwary victim and absorb its secrets with their feeder tendrils.

This multipart plastic kit builds one Lictor, a fearsome and stealthy Tyranid hunter. This cunning creature springs from the shadows, virtually scaling vertical surfaces to tear apart foes as it strikes with its distinctive preying mantis-like claws. The Lictor's feeder tendrils even allow it to digest a victim's memories, and the kit includes two different heads – one with its feeder tendrils hanging down, and another with the tendril membrane flared aggressively.

This highly poseable monstrosity uses a variety of interchangeable legs, clawed arms, and scenic base elements to create diverse poses for stalking across the battlefield – building your Lictor crouched low and ready to spring, or ominously rearing up to its full height. Ball joints at the neck and scything talons allow you to further customise its pose, extending or retracting each element of its malevolent bladed arms.

This kit comprises 56 plastic components and comes with a Citadel 50mm Round Base. This miniature is supplied unpainted and requires assembly – we recommend using Citadel Plastic Glue and Citadel Colour paints.
