https://i.pinimg.com/originals/01/aa/5b/01aa5b5989e4983a1ccac2b0c4e67d8e.jpg hope the scrap jet looks something like this

Here's a picture of all three side by side, definitely some shared bits - far as 3D design went at least, and I think each buggy clearly has it's own unique bits. But this might make it easier to see if there are any bits of roll bar or exhaust that get repurposed as different things between the models.
Doesn't look the case to me.

I have this weird feeling that Squig Buggies are a catch-all category for the old models that don't have the guns and wargear of the four new snazzily named vehicle classes.

I like the look of the new buggy. The orks on it look more like the newer AoS orruks to me. I thought the previous buggies looked more like the orks were used to, but looking at the Shokkjump Dragsta it could go either way and the stills from the video of the first new buggy are a little blurry. I tend to prefer the look of the 40k Ork Boyz to the AoS Ironjawz brutes, but I still think the model looks really good.

I definitely enjoy the mad max look. The grot strapped to the front is pushing it a little too far for me in terms of being to similar to Fury Road, but again that's a minor quibble and I still think the new model is really good.

If the megatrakk scrapjet is an equivalent of the FW Big Trakk that would make me happy. It's one of the most versatile vehicles for creating many ork vehicles that have either been cut or never had normal 40k rules.


I hope they don't axe Big Gunz. I like the traditional Big Gunz, and while the models were old I didn't think they looked bad. I do think they needed an update mostly because they were expensive and finecast. A battery of three Big Gunz in one plastic kit at a reasonable price would make me really happy, but I'm not getting my hopes up. Even if they do axe them I'll still have the Index so I can use my dozens of Big Gunz for Narrative/Casual games, but it would still be a shame to see them go.

Brilliant design, I'll be painting mine up as either the Razor Kola or Interceptor Special for sure.

All I need now is something with a skorcha so we can also do an FDK.

Looks cool.
Is that the same engine we say on the first?

No it is not, it is a different kit.

So this looks to be confirmation that the AoS Orruk look is crossing over into 40k. Those look exactly like Ironjawz. Makes me very happy, and if they just remake the Boyz kit in the same style I would be all over the army.

Take the rear spoiler off the dragster and I think you'd have 3 very cool models there.

Give me the old "buggy" pulled by squigs and having the boss with Klaw...

If logan grimnar can do it, so can Ghazkull.

hmm, i was wrong about the snazwagon (i thought it would be some type of battle wagon filled with guns), but i love the design of this and its good to see this guy outside the speedfreeks box art.

i suspect the trackscrapjet is probably be that warboss on vehicle in that shocklump pic (but hey, i can be wrong again).

still think the squig buggie is going to be something to help flesh out the snakebite range, but i do like the idea of it being the replacement of the current buggy. i love these 3 new vehicles but they are so different then what the current buggies are that it would be hard to run any current buggies we might own as these new vehicles (way different/number of wepons and size of model), but having something smaller then these and maybe with the same wpn options then we can use our old buggies/tracks as new squig buggies. (this way we can at least have a model that helps represent those that will have updated rules and points over time, because if the current buggies we have are left in the codex then they will languish with index rules). also if the squigbuggie is small looking then it would help fill out the model range for speed freeks. with smallest being bikes, then squigbuggies (with my theory of them being the size of old warbuggies), then the new shockjump/boomkanister/snazzwagon, then you have trukks and battlewagons being the biggest (outside of FW).

also, some theories on the designs of the squigbuggies wpns.
since with the new kit has some obvious influences from madmax furry road then maybe the "roket" wpn option i hope they have is literal rokets on spears.
the skorcha could be a big fat oil squig with a hose attached to its gob.
and the bigshoota would be the most haphazard scrapped from other orks type of bigshoots. if there was any faction that could make the bigshoota look more scrappy it would be the snakebites.

"rokkit on spears" so tankhammas with Reach? lol

I cannot agree more.
I actually like the older gunz also, and have 2 batteries of each type.
I would certainly be pissed if they got axed.

Same with the buggies: new models? Nice. But I hope they do not get rid of the older weapon
options because of that.

That's another sweet ride. Please don't be 45€ a pop.

Well they’ll all be in the boxed game so you’ll get them at a substantial discount.

Love the models! Would love them even more if rumors are true and its a Gaslands/GorkaMorka type thing instead of a splash release for the buggies!

I would hope that is exactly what is happening,, with the huge resurgence with Necromunda... this is the perfect time to work in the Gorka-Morka aspect and the ash wastes... chance to take current and new human gangs out from under the hive as well as bring the orks in.... even if this is not the end all for the Gorka-Morka... its can be a perfect lead in.... I can just imagine a horde of these buggies trying to take down a convoy of Goliath Trucks and Rockgrinders with cultist on them... would be freaking awesome!!!!

I'm hoping someone will make upscaled Gaslands templates for these.

So, someone is posting pictures from the October white dwarf already and they posted some AoS pictures. There is hope we might see some Ork stuff early.

Have you a link please?

See the AoS thread on this board.

Wouldnt that be the september White Dwarf?

Ai, tis September dwarf. We won't get squat until orktober unless we get prices shared for orktober.

We're in the dark until nova or v late September.

Go look in the AoS thread. The leaked picture is from October.

Many thanks to George Miller and Brendan McCarthy - and all the talented staff at GW, naturally.

I can't wait to have my armies shoot at these!

Congrats, Orks - nice rides.

So, one each for Bad Moons, Deff Skullz and Evil Suns... so we'll need the other 3 now, Goffs, Snakebitez and my beloved Blood Axes.

I'd love to see something like this for Blood Axes.

Blood axes have looted vehicles, so that leaves the jet for Goffs, and Squigs for snakebites...might be what they were thinking?

I'm kinda excited that my converted Ork Trukks can pass as buggies, since trukk spam has gone out of fashion. Kit bash them with the new stuff.

didnt realize this was a thread rule?

anyways, nova is literally next week. i would've thought this latest vehicle preview would've been there. maybe they will reveal the rumored squigbuggy at nova (so far they've been doing 1 vehicle at a time for us).

are there any other events after nova that we might expect any more news? if not then we would need to rely on leaks all through September.

though whenever there is a leak it seems the community team is quick to release an article. with the latest aos oct whitedwarf leak there was a community post about they very things in the leak right after https://www.warhammer-community.com/2018/08/26/from-the-wild-places/.

either GW plans these leaks or they are very quick to put out an article to not miss the "hype".
