It looks like Flash Gitz share box wit Nobs for me...
You would be wrong. That's a conversion using two kits.
Same location, the new box and pricing:

Nobody's losing anything. We're better off without having every non-Ork vehicle automoatically shoehorned into one 11/11/10 chassis. Does this look like AV11?

Ork generals could drum up model sales easily if we can loot any vehicle and keep the same AV/weapon's loadout. Keep the same point cost from the original codex, make everything 'Get's Hot' and BS2... then call it for the day.
Voila... Orks be loot'n everything!
I was planning on painting my looted vehicles in the colors of friends armies. LOL

Its hard to be awesome, when your playing with little plastic men. Welcome to Fantasy 40k
If you think your important, in the great scheme of things. Do the water test.
Put your hands in a bucket of warm water,
then pull them out fast. The size of the hole shows how important you are.
I think we should roll some dice, to see if we should roll some dice, To decide if all this dice rolling is good for the game.

This may sound, but I just realized... if Flash Gitz are the only thing listed in this week's White Dwarf, that's probably a good indication that the codex isn't going to be available for pre-order/released with the Gitz, but probably the week after. Correct?

I think you should be able to pay for/upgrade your av for looted vehicles to a max of 13 at least. Base 11/11/10, 10pts for 12/11/10, 20pts for 12/12/10 so on and so forth.

Actually it is not known... They are now saying round the various websites that next week will be big gunz only... Supposedly orks are going to be a 6 week release with the codex at the very end of it.

Stikk bommas are special among ork society for one reason - They know when you pull the pin out of a stikk bomb you throw the bomb not the pin!

Do those 'various websites' have screenshots of the White Dwarf saying Flash Gits are next week and not big guns or the codex?

The rules for them are in the WD, same time as release.

At this point, anything will be an improvement over the old codex. If the flash gitz are any indication of what the full codex is going to be like, I think we can be hopeful

It's not spamming. The picture directly addressed the question or comment in each case. Thanks for you input though!

I'm pretty sure he meant the week after the Gitz.
So guns would release on the 21st, and codex would be no earlier by the 28th. At least, that's what I think he's saying.

Right, we're saying different things. Fair enough though. I was focusing on the 'Codex is not this week' bit, he was focusing on the 'Codex is next week bit'.
