Lots of different sized bases too, strange...

The name on the box is different and there is another blog post showing the contents(see one of my earlier replies)

Unlikely, unless they renamed it and changed the box art:

Website is in polish, here's from google translate:
"Hello!
Another portion of photos, this time from the middle of the box.
It looks like there will be two colors of moldings, two factions (?) And cardboard boards (it looks like boards) in the Necromundy style. You will probably be able to put a race track on them where the game will take place.
In the moldings we see a mass of wheels and vehicle chassis. A lot of bitsów, a lot of elements ... will be of what to build new models ... just what ?!
You can see that there are cubes k6 and k10. Cats are not ordinary cubes - we have an effect / outcome cube or something.
In addition, we can see that a book with the Story of The Beast will be attached.
Interesting are the stands - these ovals do not have any vehicles, but who knows, maybe there will be motorbikes. Deathwatch motors are on ovals, right?
It looks like it is not a fairytale and we have something super-new in front of our eyes!
I'm eating: D And you?"

The buggy used to have a multi-melta for a gun that looks pretty similar to the picture. Automatically Appended Next Post:
Yeah, scratch that, there is a picture of the box with sprues inside.

7 Ork facts people always get wrong:
Ragnar did not win against Thrakka, but suffered two crushing defeats within a few days of each other.
A lasgun is powerful enough to sever an ork's appendage or head in a single, well aimed shot.
Orks meks have a better understanding of electrics and mechanics than most Tech Priests.
Orks actually do not think that purple makes them harder to see. The joke was made canon by Alex Stewart's Caphias Cain books.
Gharkull Blackfang did not even come close to killing the emperor.
Orks can be corrupted by chaos, but few of them have any interest in what chaos offers.
Orks do not have the power of believe. |

thank you for posting that, this is definitely not any current ork vehicle. man, that sprue is just the epitome of current GW. every spot on that sprue has been used efficiently to get the most plastic in a box. this is starting to feel more and more real.
also that pic with a book in the back that just says "sample chapter, the beast", looks like the same art from the beast arise series, so they might be trying hard to incorporate that book series with the new orks. and those bases are defiantly big ovals for buggies (it looks the same base size that was supplied with the aos ork wolf chariot i goit, and its very close to the size of the current buggy) and the small ones could easily be for bikers or hopefully a bike character or 2.

Interesting that there's quite a few different sized bases in there. Maybe quite a few Ork vehicles in the box. Obviously the Polish write up suggests it's not Asian only.

It also looks like the killteam box, where the two teams have been on differently colored plastic sprues to be able to play them right away.
Since there are at least four sprues, maybe we get four buggies in the box?

The sprues, the inclusion of the Beast Arises snippet and the extra information in that post all seem to indicate that this is legit.
Ork players everywhere are losing their minds!

Can’t be sure, but they look to be at least two separate sprues, going on the wheel layout.
And what looks to be a gunmetal coloured sprue. Maybe the chassis (what is the plural for chassis? Does it have one. I dunno)

Like sheep, chassis is its own plural. I thought the sprue in the top right of the photo was black, but I could be wrong. Perhaps, like Blood Bowl and Adeptus Titanicus, the game comes with a sprue of counters/measuring sticks/etc?

What do we think the different bases are for?
There's 2 big oval bases - I'd assume they're for the Buggies.
Then we have 4 smaller oval bases? Are they for bikes or smaller 4 wheeled vehicles do we reckon?

"sheeps" seems more like a verb. You know, that activity popular in Aberdeen, Wales and New Zealand? "you sheep, he sheeps, they are sheeping"?

nah, its sheepz
as for the smaller bases i imagine they are most likely for bikers, they could very well just package the old mini with the new ones to make a fuller set. most new bikes these days are packaged with ovals (and most mounted infantry in aos too)

Possibly but Deffkoptas use the clear, raised bases ala Jetbikes currently.
I'd be more inclined to go for Bikes or mini buggies.
Characters on bikes might not be too far off either.

There are three different buggies on the box art, maybe four if you count the exploding one in the background.

Doesn't anyone else think this is all a little too coincidental?
Yesterday we had Phil Kelly harping on about Orks going off to race in a video supposedly about "lore for a boxed set of GSC vs SW". The Orkish races have also been mentioned in articles.
The same damn day someone leaks pics of a Gorkamorka 2.0 boxed set called Speed Freeks?
Am I the only one who thinks this is all a brilliant intentional marketing technique employed by GW? In which case they have a video ready. Just as they did for Rogue Trader....
