Ah, well, anything that reduces the amount of finecast in the world gets a thumbs-up from me. Carry on :)

Wow. And then Corona happened. Just....crickets, all the way through to 2023...

They've come all the way back 'round to Zoats again, haven't they?

Hmm.

Hmm!

Throw some Rending Claws on those suckers instead of the heavy weapons, and I may have my Zoats for ASC.

Looks more like the 4 arms 2 legs Genestealer thing going than the rhinocetar zoat thing. I bet real Zoats wouldn't be much more expensive than a big finecast gribbly.

They do look kind of Zoatish, certainly they should be the right size from the looks of things.
There are rumours floating around the interweb that the December Hobbit release has been pushed back and Nids have been brought forward to fill the slot. It may be a very gribbly Christmas this year.

...I'm going to have to paint more bugs. :D

They look pretty quadrupedal to me, but you never know. The real thing does seem to turn up for relatively cheap on eBay, but eh. I like the look of those new models, and there's the whole plastic thing.
