It's a rant!
What an awfull model! Is it old or something? does anyone know (I only started warhammer in February). The orks on it are about the size of Imperial guardsmen and maybe smaller. The sprue marks are a whole milimeter off and the detail on the model is close to what I can sculpt with green stuff, ohh yes I'm pretty bad. Last but not least GW has the nerve to call it a Multi part plastic kit. It has barely enough plastic parts to asemble it!!! In the codex it only gets one upgrade for weapons: a twin linked rokkit and there are none on the sprues!!
WTF?!
rant over ty for listening

It is only slightly younger than the universe itself. Same with the war tracks.

I'm hoping that GW or FW release one matching the technical drawing in IA:8. Failing that - that will be my goal whenever I get around to custom building one...
And yes - its old - same model when I was back in the hobby over ten years ago...

Now I got that of my chest I can see some good things
Firstly I finaly understand why people say that metal minatures had more details than plastic ones. I dislike metal miniatures and couldn't understand why people said they had more details. After seeing the warbuggie I can understand them however plastic sculpts have come along way.
Second good thing is that it's a tiny little fecker  While I dislike the model immensly it will probably fit right under a battlewagon, completely out off sight whenever I need it to

It was old in '98 when I started with the 3rd ed starter box.

I've heard that the FW Grot Tanks can be configured to be plausible war buggies... is that so? Those are sweet little models & I'd love to have an excuse to put them in my army.

I reckon if you look at the current codecs, the picture of the war Buggies will probably be the new kit when released at some stage in the future. And yes the current one is a bit

It's a ~15-20 year old model back when all orks looked like that. They changed the art direction around 3rd edition and obviously they look much cooler now. At least they were BS3 back when that model was released...
