Yea I'm not including half the tentacles for transportation purposes alone. Or maybe consider a stand in.

And considering they can carry an MC, one would imagine that they need to be large.

Still, could be particularly inconvenient for transportation, given the size and 'stick-outty' parts, but then, have we Tyranid players not become accustomed to such things?

Pots? I thought you were talking about the new water pots GW is selling.

Yeah the PoDs are big. Now I just need to see how I can use all GW 3 MC kits and make a titan out of it. Pod would be the body, maybe the Grabbything will be the head, use the tentacles from the Toxicrene. Now just need to see what to use for legs, or just add more tentacles for the legs.

But we have the Genestealer, and so I fear nothing."

They come apart in the middle just like an easter egg or something. I am about half done building one, and trying to figure out if I will have any tentacles left over to fab up a mucolid spore when i am done. if you dont glue the top of the spore to the bottom you should have the sporocyst without even doing any fancy magnet shenanigans.

The landed pod (Sporocyst) and flying (Tyrannocyte) are the same with the only difference being the top. Has anyone thought about just magnatizing the top and using both "poses"? (I like the landed one for pods so I can make Mucoloids)
