I'm posting out of curiousness. I wonder how many of y ou out there actual perfer the 3rd ed fex opposed to the new one. I personally like the 3rd ed fex, it looks more realistic. The new one is far too exadurated in my opinion, it looks more like a demon than a bug-like alien.
i am very much enthralled by the new carnifex, and the new tyrant guard and hive tyrant too for that matter, they seem to fit more with the other models
but not, the old carnifex did give me a "its a large beetle" feel, which would be good, other then the fact that tyranids as a whole dont give me a insect feel, more of a "horde of lizard/insect/other things"
call me crazy but I like good old 2nd ed. Fexes, tyrants, lictors, stealers, rippers, gargs, termies, thropes, and even warriors. Maybe it cause thats what I own, but it's hard to beat the old tyrants, lictors, and fexes.
I like the new fex, though the old fex is also good. I've just always hated how the tyrant and fex in 3rd ed had their mouths closed. It looks so anti-climatic, having this giant monstrousity that isn't even roaring because it can't open its mouth to look imposing.
I'm a new tyranid player and saw a few of the old fex's there about double the size of a warrior or genestealer, I mean I've seen heavily and normally modified fex's and jesus christ these things look rediculous, I show'd them to my 2.5y/o lil brother and he scream'd it was hilarious but I mean I think that proves its point...its awsome looking and can scare the **** out of babies

i prefer the new fex but with lots o converstion. i dont like the fact that he looks like he is trying to hide behind a gaunt and not being very sucessful.
For the most part, I prefer most of the V4 models over the V3or V2 models. The only one I don't like is the new Tyrant, (what is up with the nose sword?)
