I can remember the old one coming out along with the wartrak and truk.

I remember the older versions. I think the metals were still the late Rogue Trader / very early 2nd ed. So they'd been around a fair while too. Ooooh yes!

Looks good to me. The new buggies are coming in a new game and though some are calling it the new GorkaMorka I think it will likely be one bought mostly for the minis. From what little has come out about it I am getting a GorkaMorka meets Dark Future vibe which is cool.

On a side note while the GW video is funny it is sad to see such a cool older mini being smashed...I guess that is GWs new MO, Kill The Past.

Renegade Scout sounds interesting but there is no way I would drop $20 on something without at least a preview.

I like that new model in fairness, but it needs a shed load more clearance off the ground, or the first pebble or speed bump it hits is going to rip off the front!

I'm not sure the Orks care as long as it went fast and loud.  :D

I really have no idea what I'm doing.

If I'm not mistaken, the smashed Ork vehicle is from Gorkamorka? So it'd be plastic? Probably isn't apt in this case, other than the Gallagher act...

In the past, I've had this disagreement with him over on TMP. He's so convinced of the superiority of plastic figures over metal that he issued a challenge: tossing a GW metal sculpt and a plastic one off a building. The plastic figure will come out okay, while the metal one be flattened or something. I don't think it ever occurred to him that a flattened metal miniature might qualify as a Zinnfiguren, while an heat gun to a plastic figure will result in a blob. lol

It's alright. Just a shame they'll probably update nothing else like trakks or heaven forbid some deffkoptas.
If you ain't marines or nurgle you ain't getting much except jack shizzle.

Probably be £50 each as well...

If you're not making scratchbuilt Ork vehicles, you're doing Orks wrong.  >:D
