Title: Alien Orc Craboids [Kickstarter]
Post by: Andrew May on April 25, 2025, 11:48:37 AM: https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/2004599158/alien-orc-craboids?ref=user_menu

After so many successful collaborations with Kevin Adams on my Renegade 93 line I have decided to move adjacent to orc pirates once again and bring you a whole host of Alien Orc Craboids! These Orcs were once space pirates but have been lured into the depths with promises of wealth and power by the deep craboids and their unhallowed Jellyfish Gods! The Orcs willingly mixed their genes to produce fierce hybrids and now have returned to the shore to battle their former brethren.

The old school cool is particularly enticing to me; they would fit in seamlessly with GW's 2nd ed ranges.

Also; they're ridiculously tempting... :D

I remember the White Dwarf article in the early 90s about ork/genestealer hybrids, which I thought was a really cool idea.
I wonder why it never caught on?

I've been collecting a few Ork genestealer hybrids over the years, you remember these from the lead painters league a few years ago.
These will make fine additions to the ones I already have.

I'm really pleased to announce that everyone that has backed to include the Craboid Tyrant mini in their rewards will now receive an additional set of arms in their pledge. You will now receive the same single miniature but you will have the option to assemble it with either the crab claws or the new quad claws.
