Meet The Big-Brained Mind Of Necromunda’s Delaque Spyker!
June 15, 2022 by brennon
The Underhive of Necromunda breeds some odd sorts. Whilst that mostly means mutants, there are also some fellows that have been utterly infused with psychic energy and turned into big-brained grimdark warlocks. See what you think of the Delaque Spyker.

Any Ganger that shows an ounce of psychic potential is force-fed Ghast and turned into a psyker or spyker of untold power. Well, as long as their brain doesn't explode in the process. They can absorb the secrets of those nearby making them valuable as informants for a Delaque gang on the prowl.
Delaque Spyker Details // Necromunda
All manner of psychic powers are unlocked by these fellows. They can force enemies to flee in terror or cripple them under a barrage of psychic assaults. You can also use a good ol' force blast to send foes flying off walkways and down into the depths.
Being unsanctioned psykers, other gangers might see them as quite the prize if you can bring them down. However, it's best not to underestimate them. This miniature is going to be available from Forge World very soon.
Are you going to be picking one or two of these up?

That looks like a migraine feels.
Gawds he is grimdark. Love it!
I feel like they took him a little too far. Cool concept, but he looks more like that giant purple head from TMNT than anything from 40k, in my opinion.
He looks like Mega-Mind from that animated movie with same name.
Lol Mega Mind is unwell or O.D.ing on something the colour he’s changed to?
? No It’s that guy from the Spacemarine fan film just as the marine opens up his head when he starts to get possessed ?
With that huge head my first thought was that it’s filled with gas and that’s why he’s floating.
The concept art is much better, the head is smaller and the body much more frail looking…it’s got a real sense of malice while this kind of crosses that line into silly.
Can I complain at the number of “kids” who keep mentioning MegaMind as a reference rather than mekon from the Dan Dare comic. !!! I refuse to accept the source as a 10 year old kids movie !!!
Also I completely love this model !! Clearly the guy has a case of the Bloaty Head
I don’t really dig on 40k these days – I think it’s lost most of its character and charm. But Necromunda still oozes grimness and darkness in nearly everything it does. And this model is the epitome of the madness that is the Grim Dark of the 41st millennium. Love it.
