Warhammer 40K: Tyranids – Parasite of Mortrex [51-27] (Citadel Version)

The Parasite of Mortrex is a unique Tyranid bioform, the result of a Norn-Queen’s genetic experiments and tests to enhance its broods.

Next to its multiple claw appendages and fanged maw, the Parasite of Mortrex has a barbed tail tipped with a hollow tube, like a snake’s fang, capable of implanting its still-living victims with Ripper parasite embryos. Within solar hours, or even after a duration as short as a few heartbeats, the Ripper parasites mature and will devour the unwilling host from the inside out to fuel their accelerated growth.

This kit bullds one Tyranid Parasite of Mortrex.

Armed with clawed limbs and a barbed ovipositor, this winged beast is a mobile incubation organism housing hundreds of Ripper pods. With a host of horrifying abilities, this unique biomorph adds disruptive tactical options to the already unpredictable tendrils of the Hive Fleet.

This set comprises 12 plastic components and is supplied with a Citadel 40mm Round Base.

This miniature is supplied unpainted and requires assembly – we recommend using Citadel Plastic Glue and Citadel Paints.
