Not sure if these have been seen before - I don't recall seeing them myself. The green was one of a selection in the Warhammer World Ork display





looks pretty mean - I like his cap!

Apologies if they've been posted already!

I havent seen it yet. Looks pretty nasty. Commensurate to his rules.

I think his cap is too "Villiage People" for my tastes though.

I wonder if this means they'll be redoing the Stormboyz. That rocket pack is freakin awesome.

Fit to the T to kill. Looks awesome.

2nd wave? Can't come soon enough.

Boosta on da choppa = win

I prefer Jamsessionein's from the WIP forum a bit more myself. The Commisar coat really makes it for me.

Still, I wouldn't cry if I got that man in my stocking

The hat is too Village People? Don't tell the Blood Axes that.

Love the control handle sticking out to his right. Always thought some orky guidance device was needed on rokkit packs.

Actually, he looks kind of goofy to me. Something kind of "Hogan's Heroish." Maybe its the pose...

Dude, that model is awesome. It really is getting difficult to resist playing orks. The new models are just freaking cool. I guess once I am finished with my Templars I can start another ork army.

It's impossible to resist the lure of the WAAAGGHH!

Wehrkind, is it possible to get a link to the WIP Zag you're talking about? I can't seem to find it.

It looks like the sculptor has been inspired by jamsessionein's conversion. ;-)

Here's the link to his brilliant conversion;

His Pistol looks a little bit weedy, and the feet need more powercables.
But his face is nice.

Cool.

That hat is, well, I need to see it painted.

ill stixck with the one i made, i like jam sessions alot as well.

Do my orkey eyes decieve me or is that sum flash gitz behind him on the 2nd pic, they look big and nobby and gots what look like big guns.

It looks a lot like something Freddy Mercury would have worn.

I haven't seen this before. Looks really cool I like Jamsessionein's a little more but I wouldn't complain about getting one of these.

Nope, just lootas

Lootas are shoulder mounted weapons. The one in the immediate background looks more like a Big Shoota boy.

The miniatures on the back are odd. They aren't burnas, because they've got ammo feed sticking out of their backpack, but they aren't lootas because their guns are different. I think that it's the Ork Kommando miniature (i.e. the chain and skull on the gun), as you can see here http://store.us.games-workshop.com/storefront/newimage.asp?Size=A&Img=258337

Zagstruk looks cool and a complete rip-off from jamsessioninone's great miniature
I like the Jump Pack on this one better, though, it looks like a miniature fighta-bomba, thanks to those wing-mounted rockets!

I bet you wouldn't...

I'm sorry, its friday afternoon and I need a beer, this is all too much for me.

I like the little rocket on his choppa. Very very nice. Great model and great rules. You are going to see that one around a lot.

I like it. I think that hat is more "Tom of Finland" than it is "Village People..."

SON OF A $&*%@^%$ GODDAMNIT

There goes all the work I was doing on my Zagstruk. Is this official? They're producing this?

My only comfort is that I was kind've close sort've. But damnit.

I really love this much more than my meager efforts. On the list of things Ein likes to do while converting, sculpting is at the very bottom rung, even below accidentally catching an xacto knife in the thumb.

Maybe I'll ebay mine and see what I get for it. I need to confirm that this is going to be a GW release before I do that, though.

I have to agree. It does look alot like Jam Sessions Zagstruk.

You know how people always complained about that one guy making primarchs? Yeah...

I prefer Jam Sessions. I'm not a big fan of the "wild" look,
and I prefer jam sessions hat and coat on his version of
the conversion.

Also, people are going to stare at Jam Session's mini and
wonder how he converted it from the GW one, and it's
going to drive them crazy.

This is definitely a GW sculpt - I took the picture yesterday at Warhammer World (GW HQ). It was in the cabinet of Ork greens and 3-ups. The question I suppose is whether they plan to release the figure or not.

As for everyone saying GW have copied jamsessionein - GW sculpt a range well in advance before release - this sculpt is going to be at least 3-6 months old, if not older. It may be that the starting point for both figures was the same artwork, but it's probably unlikely that one is a copy of the other.

That said - jamsessionein I love your work and think your Zagstruk model is extremely cool

well, he's cool and all, but it lacks Ein's charm.

Whoa, yeah Ein chill, yours is still where it's at! And it didn't cost you $20 or whatever this guy is gonna go for
