The sprues are on the site too for the kans and the dread. It looks to me that they are releasing a Grotzooka finally.
I personally like this, its a bit pricey at first, but the dread alone comes with 84 pcs! Bits boxes everywhere will be overflowin!

Not actually a fan of most of those.
the Dread is okay and I may get one. the rest don't impress me.

The only thing I don't like is the legs and feet of the Dread and some of the Kans.
One of the Kans has the classic style leg/feet combo. I doubt you get a choice of legs/feet with all the Kans or the Dread though...
Otherwise I think they are really cool.

I don't like the Flash Git. Kinda boring. Would be better as a conversion I think. A "Gitfinda Squig?" LAME.
I like the kans, except for the arms that look alot like there is a "boy in a suit" look to them. The shoulder pads and jointed arms are just too long. I always liked that the kans had one weapon 'bolted' to the side, and then a single arm for fighting.
The dread has lame legs. Looks too much like a tyrranid. I give them a C+ with this outing.

| Personally I like all the models though I cannot believe they replaced the old venerable dread with this new one, I wish they would of kept both models available, oh well! The more I look at all this new ork shit, the more its growing on me... that doesn't mean I am jumping on the ork bandwagon any time soon but somewhere down the road I may give em a go. I wouldn't of said this before but now I think orks have some of the coolest looking models in the game, especially that forgeworld stuff! Having received my space wolves dread from forgeworld, the quality and attention to detail is good!

| The new legs have 'knees' now. That's what is throwing me off a little bit. I just never saw ork dreads being able to 'jump into' combat, like the new models portray. I was always into the clockwork walk into the fray, belching smoke and powersaws screaming. I could get used to it though. It looks like on the kans, that there is the upgrade for hooks on the feet. Which has interesting possiblities.

My thoughts exactly. I liked the "waddling" aspect to ork dreads, not so much of the agile walkers that these look like.
It gave you a forgiving reason to think of them as so inferior to other's dreads.

However, I have just thought about the possiblilty of actually making a 'kicking' pose to at least one of the kans! You could even make the thing do a 'donkey kick' pose. (Leave it alone yous dirty minded people, I didn't realize until I wrote it, so just leave it alone! ) That would certainly have consequenses on the LOS issue since it would be pretty much facing downward, but its an interesting idea for modeling.
On another note, I'm very excited about the new Grotzooka and all of the pieces that you get with these monsters. The dread alone comes with 84 bits to it.
Very exciting!
