Dunno, but from the look of the little pictures [ship status sheet,
whatever] you need something lumpy. ^_-

[Of course, the Earth ships look *nothing* like their status sheets,
so... j/k. ^_^ ]

Yes, they still sell the Tyranid metal [only kind, actually] through
mail order.  But you'll have to pay full price -- probably 5+ pounds per
blister.  [About 1.5 dollars in a pound.]

And, actually, I'm not sure if you'd want to use them... the minis
aren't all that impressive for the bugs, IMO.  But if you want to get a
look at their pictures, point a [graphical] web browser to
"http://www.contrib.andrew.cmu.edu/usr/at2u/sf-hive.html"; I finally got
the Hive Fleet page done.  The paint jobs 'Eavy Metal did on the Tyranid
ships is... less than impressive, IMO [I *hate* the Hive Ship, it just
looks *really* stoopid] but it'll give you a feel for what the ships
look like, and a name to ask for if you do decide to order.
