Two Votann infiltrators in a super-suit.

Rumour engine for today:



It's some swirly magic and a non-human hand; could be anything really.

Possibly a Lt equivalent for Tzeentchian Horror?

How many fingers do Lizardmen and Slann have?

Looks Death to me for some reason

Goblin Chef making a pizza.

Flesh Eater Courts dude?

I'm inclined to agree, maybe ghouls.

Also, Lizards and Tzeentch seem full up on character and near-character model releases right now

Ghoul wizard.

Ded Orky.

Yeah, was about to say that could not be more Orky if you tried.

But what is it though? Any classic units were still missing? The brush strokes give the impression of an infantry scale weapon so maybe new Lootas so they can ditch the old Boyz kit once and for all?

Orks seem pretty likely, just look the that ring-piece at the front

Could be updated Killa Kans or Deff Dredd, as a Kustom Kannon thing?

seems like a 1:1 match with the Kustom shokk rifle on the Shokkjump Dragsta

Good spot, depressingly similar.

From those new standardised mek produktion lines...

So much for it being a "Kustom" shokk rifle, then.

GW loves reusing their CAD designs a little too much sometimes...

Alternate weapon for Tank bustas?

I hate to say it, do orks really need another wave? They get very healthy mini support as it is compared to some.

I think it is pretty much just tankbustas that need a kit update at this stage. Other ranges would benefit more methinks.

Perhaps it's something Nazzdregg-adjacent that was originally meant for AoO and got delayed? Mega-armour boss box that also builds Nazzdreg or whatever.

Tankbustas and a few resin characters/HQ's that need updates. Weirdboyz, Big Mek with KFF, Nob with WAAAGH! Banner, Grotsnik especially, followed by Zagstruk and Badrukk. The only one that has any urgency would be Grotsnik IMO, given how small he is relative to everyone else.

I could see it as a weapon option for a Big Mek with KFF to be honest, given that they got rid of the scuplt at some point but then brought it back.

Oh yeah, forgot about the characters.

A kustom shokk rifle as a weapon for other units is fine. What is not fine is it being identical to the one on another kit.

Ufthak Blackhawk from Brutal Kunnin

Good spot on the shokk rifle. Not quite identical but definitely the same design language. So maybe a special weapon for tankbustas but it could be an extra option for loota/burna mekz

Finally an Orkimedes model?

I've seen people on the Ork subreddit speculate that it might be Ufthak, who starred in the Brutal Kunnin novels, who took a Shokk Rifle as a weapon.

And knowing that Ufthak also goes into battle in a Looted Centurion suit, I really hope they are right.
