How to spend £70 a 40K related product?

[Alex_H]

Hello all.

I have just recently won a £70 gift voucher at work which I am contemplating spending on some 40K realted goodness. However I can not decide what to buy so I am throwing out to the good folks of Warseer to help me make up my mind.

The options are as follows:

1. Hive Tyrant, Swarm Lord and two Hive Guard
2. Battlefoam Pack 720. (Empty adding trays at a later date)
3. A second Scythed Herodule
4. A Tyranid Battleforce + Revenour Box set.
5. 9 Tyranid Warriors with Bonesword/Lash-whips
6. Something else 40K related (Please give me ideas)

If you need to ask others on how to spent your money then there isn't anything you could possible want to justify the price. This is exactly why vouchers exist, to promote arbitrary purchases. I'd wait with the voucher until you really want something.

Books, buy lots of books!

Err are you building your own hive fleet? If yes the battleforce is ok...

Not the most helpful of comments. I want to spend the money on my Tyranids, I just can't decide what to buy.

Check my signature. I have a hive fleet; I want to expand it some more.

I voted for the Battlefoam case. I have 2 BF cases right now (planning on adding a 3rd), and I have to say that they are the best form of mini transportation I have ever encountered. They're expensive, but definitely worth it.

gargantuan creatures are cool, get the heradule

QFT
I wouldn't buy more than two cases, as the 720 and the 1520 are enough to transport nearly any size force. For model storage, just buy the foam trays and swap them out for each game/convention. They even sell Cardboard cases that will keep the dust out of them while they rest on the shelf.

Save it for a rainy day....sorry, old age and life experiences talking.

For me, looking at that list is like winning a supermarket-sweep, and realising that I'd rather just take the trolley...

Why so? Not a Tyranid fan?

Can't. The prise is a £70 voucher with a 1 month window of opportunity to use it. I could spend it on anything really but I want to spend it on GW as I haven't brought anything hobby related for a while.

Actually, I play Tyranids - I just didn't like a lot of the choices on the list.

Having looked at your Hive Fleet link... wow. That's a lot of tyranids.

Honestly, I've really no idea what you should spend your money on. All I could really think of is:
- Another 3 Hive Guard (not very interesting, but they're useful, and also one of the few creatures you don't appear to have at least 2 units of).
- Swarmlord (if you want the proper model).

That's really all I can think of.
