Relthoza Aerial Ground Attack Helix - Unboxing

I just got this the other day and I am really excited to get it put together. The model details look superb. Some of the pieces appear to be repeated from the heavy walker model but this only helps to reinforce the warrior actually inside the armor.

The standard cover. This one is of the smaller design than the core helices are in.
There is a lot of resin crammed within this box considering it consists of just the leviathan and drop pods.
The Massith Drone Nodes. These grant all nearby Relthozan drones the Kill Team Mar. The models are medium sized, similar to the Works Raptor Escape Pod and have a lot of details worked into them.
All of the pieces laid out for the Vaxiss Aerial Leviathan. There sure are a lot of them!

The two attachment points for the wings and the wing blades themselves.

The legs which appear to be the same as for the heavy walker. There is some extra resin for the pour points but nothing that isn't easily removed.
The torso, face mask and arm cannons. Some extra resin for the pour points on the arms but otherwise very little flashing. Great details on all of the pieces. It is going to be awesome to see this guy all painted up!
Picture of the flight base, skydrop marker and base attachment point. Pretty standard stuff.
Overall, I have been really impressed with this model. I really like the details and aesthetics of it. I cannot wait to get it all painted up and on the battlefield. Stats wise this guy seems to be pretty impressive as long as your opponent isn't fielding an aerial interceptor squadron. I could see the terrans and their Ullrs as well as the directorate potentially making this guy a little more cautious. Between cloak, flying and its solid armor values this guy can survive a pretty severe beating. I will try to get some painted pictures up soon!
