what is the eta on the buggy then?
available at salute? or after that?
price?
etc

basically: moar info please

Still waiting on the wider treads

@Shaslenzabi - will table it at our next meeting - might beable to give you an idea of viability.

@Nicky J - It will be available at Salute and probably a week later on site stock dependent.

@Desubot -

@LDD -

Some more shots of the buggy with various accessories - Anybody care to guess how many parts the buggy comes in? (n.b. Not all are required to build i.e various exhausts etc)

A driver body (or two - one ork, one human) would make the buggy an easier sell to me. Converting miniatures to fit into seats is a pain in the backside.

Love the accessory sprue. I hope that will be available separately.

42 parts .....

Very nice! I appreciate that, and so my fellow Yanks know, overseas Tabling it is bringing it up across the pond, as opposed to the opposite here in America where Tabling it means putting it off till next time. Good thing I had International Business Communication class as one of my Comms courses.

Buggy looks quite tasty!

Seconded. I've seen far too many open-topped vehicles with 'invisible drivers' because the owner couldn't find a suitable figure and wasn't a good converter.

Hmm, maybe that's a market niche Zinge could exploit - a choice of legs at different angles, a choice of generic torsos, and a choice of pairs of arms holding various steering wheels. (We can supply the heads ourselves...)

Yea a price point for the buggy and if possible a largish brutish driver and gunner would be swell I am looking to buy at least 6 of them

The current GW orks fit quite well - that was lucky

This is awesome news! Was worried about my go-to ork driver conversion, the Kromlech one, fitting.

Now, I don't need 'em, since I can use the standard boy.

That's the Loota/Burna Boyz legs, with both feet flat on the ground, as opposed to the standard Boyz legs which have a 'walking' pose with one foot only partly on the ground, right?

Good to know, thanks.

Excuse me

Are the large (3.1 cm) and medium cog wheels compatible with standard GW Imperial tank tracks?. can these cog wheels be driving sprockets?

Having used the wheels and track shoes, the smaller wheels maybe, but the really big one is more superheavy sized, of course I fiddled around and the set up can make a large sized FT-17 tread section like that.

Hi Guys,

I am delighted to finally announce the release of the long awaited Modular Buggy!

See our May Newsletter here: http://us8.campaign-archive1.com/?u=992edde28d7dba8e9ff0b6143&id=446a8039ee

Have a great Bank holiday weekend

Cheers

@ hurtmypony

@ LDD Higher

@ Clang - I believe there is a set on the noraml sprue which will fit - will dig out my bits shortly

@ Lone cat - sorry for the late reply - not really sure what you mean - care to elaborate?

@ Shas - Glad someone knows the Cat is talking about

Can we get some sense of scale on the "large crystals"?

I Will try and sort some photos but the crystals are nominally 20mm (longest dimension)

Got it. Thanks.

Time to buy people time to buy ......... trust you Kit to finally release it when I am skint

I'm asking you whether does the Zinge tank sprocket cogwheels fit with Leman Russ track teeth? and does the 21mm Zinge sprocket wheels shares the same size with any classic Leman Russ track wheels?

I have 4 cats in the house, and speak Catonese :p

The smaller wheels will fit the angles of a Leman, they have the right width to fit inside the Leman Tracks outer teeth, yes, and the Zinge Track pieces also are the same width of the Leman Russ tracks, (I actually checked). Zinge track section do have a 4pieces as one and a triple and double, but the whole Zinge tracks have a internal hinge, so it would not work with the old Leman Russ wheels unless you glued them in further than the old tank tread sections did.

The cogwheels will fit inside the Leman Russ track teeth ultimately.

Budget is tight this week, so I only ordered one. But I got some nice conversion bits to go along with it for my ever-growing ork bit arsenal!

Dah boyz kin 'ardly wait for dem new wheels comin'. First fing deys gonna do is some rekreational roadkillin' til dem crash bars is gud an' shiny wiff plenty o squished git guts.

Tell our biker boyz dis Sunz ov Anorky Klan is expandin' to 4 wheels now, boyz, fanks to dat weedy git mek ova at Zinge.

'E made us so 'appy we ain't gonna krump 'em. (Today.)

@ Lone Cat - Right think I understand and thank you Shas for the comprehensive answer

@ hurtmypony - Rockin - looking forward to some pics!

@Git - Pic attached

Oooh forgot pics of the WIP Half track from Salute

Tracks look pretty cool plus could double for ork vehicles or even a large grot tank

I gather the graininess of the print is because it's cheaper for the test print

Yup - test print - to check size etc

Thought as much will you be selling the tracks individually ?

You wager your donkey we will

I only have an ass and it don't smell too good

I have placed my order by the way sorry I can't stretch to more than 3 buggies at the moment, I will get more later though plus I hope to see an armour upgrade kit for it soon


O yes any chance of making a start on some bikes now

And this M3 track appears to fit snuggly with Taurox suspension unit without further knifeworks.
correct?

"@ Lone Cat - Right think I understand and thank you Shas for the comprehensive answer "

No problem! Just your friendly neighborhood tread-head helping out!
