Does anyone know of a good alternative to Ork Bikes? Paying 15 dollars for a model I consider very bad (in scale and sculpt) is out of the question. The only bikes I use were the ones I got in the battle force. So, any one know of a cheap/better alternative? I wouldnt mind paying 15 dollars for an even better bike.

If at first you don't succeed, you fail. |

That quad-bike looks really good, I imagine you could go into any toystore and try finding something in-scale with the ork.

With the galaxy as large as it is the odds of the average guardsmen seeing and fighting a marine or MEQ are relatively slim. Unfortunately the guardsmen in your (and anyone else who plays IG's) army are the REALLY, REALLY LUCKY ones that fight marines ALL the time... |

Not quite, well at least I did not have an easy time. I was looking for motor corss style bikes to do Guard rough riders and sort of fell on these for my Orks boyz. Then I looked for differnt types as Orks are not know for uniformity. I could not find anything else. Target, Wal-Mart, Toys R US, and a few hot wheels specialty stores and found nothing that would work but these.
The first one I did came out well and I have several more to do. I am pretty glad I found them. Thanks
