This is my preferred "bug" army: a combination of the Highlander Studios space bugs, Khurasan's Stikks and Itu'a, and a few other insectoid bits and pieces.

Technology-wise, the Hive use a mix of mechanical machines (such as most of their handheld weaponry) and specifically bred bio-mechanical machines (their heavier weapons, all their vehicles).

The Adult Bugs are from Highlander Studio's Space Bug range; the Larval Bugs are from Khurasan Miniatures' Stikk (Entomal) range; the Myriads, Kalats and Assault Crabs from Khurasan Miniatures' Itu'a range; the various bio-weapons are from Pendraken's 10mm range (the Crawlers and Tripods) and Khurasan Miniatures Stikk (Entomal) range again (the Skuttlers and Gunships).
