Some of you may be aware that the Warhammer 40k universe 'borrows' ideas from many sci-fi movie franchises, but the biggest 'borrow' is with the race called the Tyranids. These hulking bio-engineered monsters evolve through genestealing and have more than a passing resemblance to xenomorphs. Thought I'd include some images for you to see, maybe we'll see something like these in Prometheus? Let me know what you think...

@keYserSOze Very nice Thread, And in my opinion the Tyranids of Warhammer 40000 are more similar to Xenomorphs, much more than the Zerg in Starcraft

@keYserSOze certainly Warhammer 40k is a huge and great universe influenced by many franchises [img]http://i1178.photobucket.com/albums/x368/bipolarestancia/Necrons_DawnOfwar.jpg[/img] [img]http://i1178.photobucket.com/albums/x368/bipolarestancia/terminator01.jpg[/img]

Very true, Games Workshop have borrowed quite a few ideas actually: [img]http://www.games-workshop.com/MEDIA_CustomProductCatalog/m2620114_99120105035_IGSentinel1MPPK_445x319.jpg[/img] [img]http://www.siriusreplicas.com/models/scifi/at-st/images/at-st-a.jpg[/img]

@Shambhala, IMO, The figure that you have with the Terminator looks more like General Grievous from Star Wars. What do you think? [img]http://t3.gstatic.com/images?q=tbn:ANd9GcQcA6mT8h01aUA6O2djW4TfopNcZ_u4_D54aoWMV7AneKqlzoUOwktmzxjl[/img]
