This Combat Patrol is the perfect way to start a new Tyranids collection – or expand an existing army – and save money compared to buying the kits individually.

Leading the force is a nightmarish Parasite of Mortrex, infecting its prey with a barbed ovipositor. Three Tyrant Guard can smash through even the toughest of enemies while Genestealers scuttle forwards to mop up any survivors. Finally, a Biovore provides long-ranged support. These 18 plastic miniatures represent a complete Tyranid Assault Brood for use in tight, tactical Combat Patrol games of Warhammer 40,000 – the rules for this Combat Patrol are available as a free download on the Warhammer Community website.

This set builds 18 plastic Tyranid miniatures:
– 1x Parasite of Mortrex
– 3x Tyrant Guard (which can alternatively be built as Hive Guard)
– 1x Biovore (which can alternatively be built as a Pyrovore)
– 3x Spore Mines
– 10x Genestealers

The miniatures in this box are easy to customise. The Genestealers each have a choice of head option, and the Biovore can alternatively be built as a flame-spewing Pyrovore.

The Tyrant Guard can be armed with crushing claws, scything talons, or a bone sword and lash whip. The heads, bodies, tails, legs, arms, and weapons are interchangeable across the miniatures, meaning you can unleash your inner Hive Mind when building them. They can alternatively be built as Hive Guard, armed with either an impaler cannon or shockcannon.

This kit comprises 260 plastic components, 1x Citadel 80mm Round Base, 1x Citadel 40mm Round Base, 3x Citadel 25mm Round Base, 3x Citadel 50mm Round Bases, and 10x Citadel 32mm Round Bases.

These miniatures require assembly and are supplied unpainted

This multipart plastic kit builds 10 Genestealers, fast and deadly melee killers for Tyranids and Genestealer Cults armies. These terrifying, four-armed creatures sport clutching talons alongside deadly rending claws, and each features a different dynamic pose for stalking across the battlefield.

The kit includes cosmetic head options for every Genestealer, allowing you to build your entire brood with fanged maws and slavering tongues, feeder tendrils for that classic Ymgarl look, or mix-and-match for evolutionary variety. You'll also find four heads with protruding, barbed ovipositors – ready to deliver the infamous Genestealer's Kiss...

This kit comprises 109 plastic components, and comes with 10x Citadel 32mm Round Bases.

These miniatures are supplied unpainted and require assembly. Glue & paints sold separately.

The kit includes components to build five Ravener Warriors, or specialists like the brutal Wrecker, hypersensory Tremorscythe, ferocious Venomspitter, and more.

Inside the box, you will also find a sheet of 39 double-sided Raveners tokens, so you can easily keep track of your equipment and in-game effects in the heat of battle.

This multipart plastic kit builds eiter a Biovore - a sentient Tyranid mortar - or alternatively  a Pyrovore - a fire-spewing Tyranid creature.

In addition, the kit contains 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 Pyrovore's armoured body supports a flame-spewing symbiotic organism, backed by a flared chitinous tail and bloated with foul gases.

The kit offers several alternate leg poses and basing elements, 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.

This kit comprises 37 plastic components, and comes with a Citadel 80mm Round Base and 3x Citadel 25mm Round Bases.

This miniature is supplied unpainted and requires assembly. Glue & paints sold separately.

When Tyranids invade, the Broodlord leads his followers into battle, often appearing from sewers or hidden vents to cause untold carnage amongst the enemy army. Incredibly dangerous as with all Tyranids, the Broodlord towers over many, presenting a bulky silhouette of muscle and claws. There is little that can stand in the way of this monster and his attending brood.

This multi-part plastic kit contains the components necessary to assemble one Tyranid Broodlord, and is supplied with one Citadel 75x42mm Oval base.

This miniature is supplied unpainted and requires assembly. Glue & paints sold separately.

This multipart plastic kit builds Deathleaper, the evolutionary pinnacle of the Lictor bioform. This epic creature looms dramatically over its lesser cousins, perched atop the infested wreckage of a ruined facility.

Deathleaper exhibits all the classic Lictor features, augmented to be even more impressive and terrifying – more powerful talons and claws, extended and spiked tendrils, two additional pairs of eyes, and a living cloak of membranous webbing that shifts to obscure its silhouette even further. It's a fantastic project for painters, covered with alien biological details, and makes a sinister centrepiece model for stealthy Tyranid armies.

This kit comprises 44 plastic components and comes with a Citadel 60mm Round Base.

This miniature is supplied unpainted and requires assembly. Glue & paints sold separately.

This plastic kit contains 47 components with which to make either a Tyranid Haruspex or Tyranid 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.

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, and can be armed with a thresher scythe tail biomorph.

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.

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, and can be armed with a thresher scythe tail biomorph.

These miniatures are supplied unpainted and require assembly. Glue sold separately.

This multipart plastic kit builds one Hive Tyrant, an impressive and incredibly versatile leader-beast that can be built to take on a variety of battlefield roles. You can also choose to build this kit as flying Winged Hive Tyrant, or the insidious Swarmlord.

This looming creature is a fitting centrepiece for any Tyranid army – it boasts a distinctive chitinous shell studded with chimneys, a snarling head with a cruel horn, and a hideous skeletal underbody.

The kit features a huge variety of weapons options, including two scything talons, a heavy venom cannon, a stranglethorn cannon, and a bonesword and a lash whip – as well as biomorphs like adrenal glands and toxin sacs, plus other components for customising your Hive Tyrant.

This set comprises 59 plastic components and is supplied with a Citadel 60mm Round Base.

This miniature is supplied unpainted and requires assembly. Glue & paints sold separately.
