What makes the genestealers special (IMO) is that they're much more 3-D in the horizontal direction than the originals.

Very, very nice. It makes me think I will own a Tyranid army someday soon.

Sorry about the Ep1 quote, but you've kinda brought hope to me at least. Excellent minis.

By comparison, the old Genestealers look more like Muppets.
