40K RUMORS: Ork Stompa Kit
Oh the birds are singing folks,
We have collated together the following reports from several sources:
The 40k Ork Stompa is coming, and visual sightings of the kits have been reported.
-It is a large kit with several guns, a chainsaw arm, and rockits.
-Many bitz are provided with things such as, gunz, chains, pistons, and both Ork and Grot crew.
-The overall design is said to be somehwat related to the Apocalypse scratchbuilt models (see above pic). It was speculated that some of those may have been early prototypes.
-Stompa’s head is smallish, (but easily accessorized with the truckload of bitz included).
-The Stompa’s main guns are awesome, with a belt fed Supa-Gattla included.
-Several grot-bombs are in (handy for scrathbuilding fighta-bombas).
– There is an “internal schematic” included that shows the inner working of a typical Stompa and its crew.
The kit is said to be very modular with the existing Ork plastic vehicle line. Things such as the turrets on the new Battlewagon are interchangable, and there is talk of future upgrade sprues (like the Baneblade) to expand the stompa to cover other versions over time.
Finally, even thought he kit is substantially larger then the Baneblade, it is said to be priced exactly the same US$95/£60!
~Coming this march to a Waaagh near you! It would seem we Imperials will be needing those Shadowswords to help us fend these mad machines off! Until we get pics, standard caveats apply folks.
