There are so many Necromunda models I want.

I had an idea for an Abhuman story arc (Rattlings on the way for KT), and I would love to have some of the the Necromunda Ogryns as characters for that army.

Nork is great and all, but he isn't framed as a leader.

This guy though? He could lead. So could the Industrial Servitor Ogryn with the double powerfists.

But I also really need the Techpriest and his pet 'Stealer.

Or... having a polearm to keep them at a distance is a very effective tactic.

Great looking minis, Necromunda is knocking it out the park.

Also, unmodified Ogryns and guns don’t mix well. Remember, Ripper Guns have to have shot limiters and need to be built with the expectation that they will be used as clubs in melee, and they still need to be able to shoot afterwards.
Ogryn with pokey pointy thing? Instinctively knows what to do with it.
Ogryn with gun? Needs careful training to not mag dump immediately.

Having read the details of these characters last week in the book, these models absolutely smash it out of the park in capturing their essence.
Beautiful.

Love the touch of the pressure gauges.
The skull mask on the ogryn is not how I expected it to be done, but it works

Is there any word for more of those outlaw ganger's in 10 man kits, again?

Do you mean the previously-available 12-man Underhive Outcasts Gang box set? If so, you can get the same models by purchasing three boxes of the currently available 4-man Hive Scum box.

'Narker and Cadaver Merchant

Tick two more off the list

The Ogryn are always really good, aren't they

I am really here for Necromunda's "miscellaneous Imperial citizenry with virtually no game use whatsoever" line.

Both of those are fantastic!

oh, that narker model is great. would love to figure out where else i can use that

Dang. They're really rockin' the ogryns as of late with another great model.

Same. Grimdark Lifestyle miniature model line FTW!

That is all of the Book of Judgement Hangers-on accounted for, with only a grapplehawk missing to complete the releases for that entire book.

'I'm not an ogryn, I'm just big-boned!'

Those are some great models.

Unironically, as am I! Very excited for the recently announced Arvus Lighter from the latest reveal for that very reason, I love the utilitarian vehicles that GW throw out occasionally just like the Cargo 8 in Necro as well. Hope we see some (plastic) artillery tractors for Krieg somewhere down the line as well.

Yep, same. I love the slice of life aspect of the game.

Maybe GW should be including a unique ogryn with each Necromunda model release from now on as it seems to be working quality wise for them as of late.

we need ogryns for each of the gangs. i want to see what a van saar ogryn is like, and a delaque ogryn, and an escher ogryn, and all the rest

Yep, I fully intend to get an Arvus to add to my Necromunda collection.

Maybe he looks huge next to the small girl, but the Cadaver Merchant is just a larger and fat human, not an ogryn.

Yeah, I might pick up an Arvus Lighter just to play the role of "interesting thing that sits on landing pad" in games of Necromunda or Kill Team.

Its also a nice little LOS blocker block

It's an absolute feast for civilian models this month. I really love those two, they add a lot to the feeling of the setting. Great for characters during a campaign.

I know sometimes GW make odd commercial decisions, but they have been persisting with making these for so long that the obvious conclusion is that they are really popular and sell well. Which is nice, because they generally rock.

(The fact that they go out of stock so rapidly also suggests this.)

I'd go with they sell well enough to be profitable and these days GW sees the value in offering a wide selection of things to catch as wide an audience as possible. The latter is basically why we have specialist games again, and things like plastic Sisters and Genestealer Cults. And Squats. It sure hasn't hurt GW bottom line.

Thanks for giving me an excuse to pick up an Arvus! A perfect backdrop to my Necromunda dudes.

Wonder how well/if an Arvus fits on the Cargo-8 Trailer?

It's a pretty good fit with my resin one in terms of length - but the side supports for the container are a little bit too narrow. You could leave those off though if you were just making a heli-trailer.

On reflection and re-evaluation, you may be correct... sadly. Is that a 32mm or 40mm base? Do normal humans get those now typically? I've seen roided out Goliaths on them obviously. Still a great grimdark lifestyle model regardless. In my headcanon, he can be a half-abhuman ala D&D's half-ogres...
