Likewise the Warboss is for sure a Meganob, and when you look at the power klaw one of them has I think any pretence that these are not 40K inspired is really silly. It's quite obvious. But not bad minis, for that.
'ard boyz had been what I had been considering but a) model price is icky for what you would want quite many(20-30 at least) b) they do seem noticably bigger than black orcs and bigger bases so...Would be shooting myself to foot badly gamie wise and look odd.
Can anybody give confirmation how big they ARE compared to orks? If they are supposed to bring in 40k players for kitbashing would seem odd to be noticably bigger. There's the not much except maybe nobz they could pose as. And 'eavy armoured nobz alas suck...

Looks to me like they're Stormcast sized and on 40mm bases.

If the basic guys are on 40mm bases, what's that Megaboss on? A 50 or 60mm one?
Hard to see the new guys' bases in comparison to the old Black Orcs.

Either the grunts are on 32mm and the boss on a 50mm or they are on 40mm and he's on a 60mm... Looks to me like the latter but yeah it's hard to see.

Is it just me, or does anyone else thing that the Warboss riding that giant Wyvern thing would make for a nice starting point for a Mega-Armoured Warboss conversion for 40k?

At this stage pretty much everyone sees this new Orcs as Fantasy 40K minis.

Hopefully accurate but the leaked color scheme sections show a black Orc in the end and the iron jaws next to him, taller. Hard to estimate Orruk anatomy but maybe a head taller? 3/4 head? 2 teef taller?

Thanks, Atia.

Never noticed The Chase before.

Your the best, Atia! 
Never saw the chase before as well, surprised it didn't turn up more as goblin army filler.
Looking at the squigs, classic though they are, I hope they get redone one day.

I expected Orc exodus to happen and ordered Ruglud's Armoured Orcs and 6th edition Savage Orc Shaman a week ago. I was surprised to find out that Ruglud's were still available, I thought they had been discontinued years ago.
I still need to find Azhag the Slaughterer in metal to complete my Orruk Warband. It's not going to be easy, I guess.

That place is the harsh dark future far left with only war left. |

I basically GAVE Grimgor to a friend's son. It was finecast, but had no flaws and was completely solid. Actually, I basically gave a full Orc army to my friend's son for cheap. Anyone else would have paid more, but I sold it wwwwwwwwway under value. Like maybe 10% of retail?
Damn kid better be happy about it!

Reality is a nice place to visit, but I'd hate to live there.

AoS isn't scifi at all. I can see the arguments that it's similar to 40k, but much of 40k has a very fantasy in space aesthetic anyway.

Sometimes I wish it was MORE scifi in fact. I've been wanting Dreadnought style Stormcasts since the starter came out!
