Warhammer 40,000 Carnifex Brood – Two Tyranid Monster Miniatures | Games Workshop

Unleash a formidable Tyranid threat on your Warhammer 40,000 table

The Warhammer 40,000 Carnifex Brood from Games Workshop brings two towering Carnifex models to your battlefield, ready for hobby detail and tabletop action. These living engines of destruction fuse armored chitin with sinewy musculature, delivering a dramatic presence on the board. This dual-kit is designed for players who enjoy both the hobby journey and the tactical variety of miniature battles, offering a strong centerpiece for your hive fleet without sacrificing customization options.

What’s included and how you can build it

Inside the box you’ll find two Carnifex figures, crafted as a plastic kit with a total of 110 components. The models arrive unpainted, allowing you to customize each one to your preferred style. Each Carnifex can be equipped with two pairs of scything talons, plus options for a crushing pair, together with a choice of ranged and heavy weapons—deathspitter, devourer, stranglethorn cannon, and heavy venom cannon. The tail can be fitted with either a thresher scythe or a bone mace, and there are five alternate heads to create different silhouettes on the table. A nod to a famous Tyranid hero can be represented by recreating the iconic look of Old One Eye if you wish.

• Two unpainted Carnifex models with 110 components for flexible customization
• Multiple weapon options and head choices for varied loadouts
• Tail options and iconic head variants enable unique poses and narratives

Assembly, painting, and tabletop use

This kit is ideal for hobbyists who enjoy the process of assembling and painting miniatures. The models come in a white box, brand new and sealed, and are designed for players who want a dramatic focal point for their army. For assembly, a standard plastic glue and your preferred paints will help you bring the chitin texture and sinew detailing to life, from shadowed crevices to gleaming armored plates.

• 110 components provide ample opportunities for dynamic poses and conversions
• The dual-model set is presented as a value option for expanding a Tyranid force

Playstyle ideas and practical benefits

In gameplay, the Carnifex Brood can serve as an imposing frontline anchor, driving forward with a heavy punch that can press through obstacles and open paths for advancing units. With a choice of weapons, you can tailor each model to suit a long-range suppression role or close-quarters devastations, giving you tactical flexibility in a range of missions. The assortment of heads and tail options adds narrative depth, letting you reflect battlefield events or your personal army story on the tabletop.

While this description highlights the kit’s features and potential uses, the actual performance depends on your strategy, paint level, and how you choose to deploy the models within your army. If you’re building toward a themed hive fleet or seeking a visually striking centerpiece, the Carnifex Brood offers both presence and customization without compromising the hobby experience. Note that assembly and painting are required before play, and the kit is supplied unpainted in original packaging.
