Necron Tomb Stalker

The Necron Tomb Stalker was announced by Forge World prior to GamesDay 2010 and was on limited sale on the day itself.

The Tomb Stalker is a previously unseen type of Necron construct armed with potent Gauss weaponry and razor-edged talons, which adds a devastating mix of firepower and combat ability to any Necron army. The Tomb Stalker is a huge, un-living machine, a swift and tireless engine of murder built to eternally protect the ancient sepulchres of the Necron Lords. The arcane machinery of the Tomb Stalker detects the pulse of life through hundreds of metres of solid rock, unerringly homing in on its unwitting prey and using a form of phase field to part solid matter like water.

This very nice model was fantastically painted using a basecoat of gloss black and a special metal spray. The base was a crashed Tau Piranha (though the model doesn’t come with this base).

This is a wonderful model and if I was an Imperial Guardsman trying to defend an Imperial city from something like this I would be scared, very scared.

The model itself comes in different sections allowing you to construct the model in and different number of poses.

If I played necrons I would get some of these.

Necron Monolith

When I was at Warhammer World recently I took a couple of pictures of some of the Necron Monoliths on display. In the main to add to my expanding Warhammer 40K miniatures gallery and specifically the Necron gallery, which was short on pictures, but also because I do like the concept of the model.

There is something very different and menacing about the Monolith and I do applaud Games Workshop for coming up with a very alien vehicle and not producing a stereotypical Terminator’esque tank.

I don’t think I will ever collect Necrons, not a great fan of the army, like the concept, but not enough to pay out for them, lots of other things I would like to buy first. It would be interesting to see if Forge World will bring out anything else for the Necrons?
