MemberOvomorph02/7/2012Some 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...

MemberOvomorph02/7/2012@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

MemberOvomorph02/7/2012@keYserSOze certainly Warhammer 40k is a huge and great universe influenced by many franchises

MemberOvomorph02/7/2012Very true, Games Workshop have borrowed quite a few ideas actually:

MemberOvomorph02/7/2012@Shambhala, IMO, The figure that you have with the Terminator looks more like General Grievous from Star Wars. What do you think?
