Are we really that hung up about the way a merchant is holding a pistol?

Sheesh...

I think the pose is genius. Genius. But you really need to know what's going on there and the trick inherent to that grip. It makes more sense if you had a table or counter infront of the merchant with the weapon grip facing the customer as the starting position of the pistol, like you may naturally display. As the sketchiest of sketchy customers approaches pick the pistol up and display as depicted, if the customer looks like they prefer a five finger discount rotate wrist and belly shoot customer with upsidedown revolver. It is so fast....

But why not? The rules would potentially allow the gun-smyth to "sell" weapons to vehicles now (or rather, grant free upgrades to master-crafted variants).

Because you'd expect display wares to have mass appeal?

Sure, they would deal with vehicle weapons too, but 95% of gangs don't need these and the demand would be limited to maybe 'gang fort permanent emplacement' type of thing and even that for gangs big and rich enough to have one...

On the other hand whats that creature on the back of the Goliath???

Better question is, how he killed it with that hammer without making a pancake out of the carcass?

Article link is broken, but here ya go!

Looks pretty cool, I'm interested, depending on price.

I was interested, until they mentioned it being a plastic and resin kit. Hard pass from me.

That’s a shame. Might make an exception for this though.

That is very cool!

That's a great model. Can Genestealer Cults have it for 40k too please?

It's a really nice design. I could see the same tractor being used for logistics/recovery purposes by Guard regiments, plus as the joke goes, every vehicle is an Ork vehicle.

They made a resin upgrade kit for a plastic kit that already costs as much as a resin kit?

Hard pass on price. And man it look cool. Hopefully someone redraws it wholesale for printing.

That's a bloody lovely kit. I absolutely want it, be great for my ad mech or my Votann. Bit of a pisser it is in resin though eh?

Was planning to pick one up for my Guard, till I saw it was forgeworld.

I think it's great, even if I'd only be able to use it for scenery. It's so much better than the standard plastic version which looked a bit toy-like to me.

Have they said how much it will cost?

I was wondering if it could substitute for the Dorn, with some aftermarket turrets.

But then I saw resin. Ah well.

Nice design though.

Absolutely tragic that it's not all plastic. Would have been a great counts-as or conversion base for AdMech Skorpius kit. As a partial resin kit, there's no way it isn't priced completely out of viability for. . . well, for anything, really.

Yeah, there's also a fair bit of resin there, I think, between the tracks and the rear compartment, so that's going tor raise the price even more. I could see this costing something like 120€ (comparing to the MkIIb Land Raider as a roughly similarly priced plastic kit with a roughly the same amount of added resin).

Ya sounds about right. I wish this had been the default plastic kit for the hauler.

Super jazzed about this new vehicle.

Until I saw it was Forge World, that is...

That's such a great and unexpected release ! I can see so much potential for it !
Definitely buying some

Weirdly that looks more like a good tank than the votann one, to me at least.

It's a very sexy piece of kit, but the potential price tag scares me!

I like it, but I can also easily picture it painted green with Waste Management written on the side and fitting right in.

Looks nice, but similar to other people a plastic resin hybrid doesn't appeal to me.

Will it be cheaper than a 3d printer is the real question.

At this point, we all probably know the answer to that one

Probably alone here but that design does nothing for me.

I like engineering vehicles. It needs a crane for me, but its nice. Not nice enough for me to want buy it though.

It would need to be something special on the tabletop to justify a massive price. Its not big enough to be a proper centrepiece bit of scenery. Its likely to suffer from the massive reduction in discretionary spending coming through the world. there are so many possible alternative, either in real 1:35 engineering vehicles or 3d printable options.

So just to check the amount of resin involved in this kit. It's likely the tracks, the closed cab panels and the rear instead of the container right?

That seems like a fair bit which is a pain.

I like it but fear what those resin tracks will end up looking like after the first couple of kits out of the mould
