Yes, I needs me some stompas. :)

It may take a while, but I plan to have at least three. :)

I am now inspired with such a frenzy of modeling and converting mania that I may have to be sedated until all of the appropriate pieces are in my hands. Great idea!

Can't wait to kill my first stompa. Not sure about the kit, but reckon all those plates plus an old star wars AT-ST would make a good nurgle warhound.

damn the stompa is nice. i work at a GW partnership store in Madison. Wi and we got the black box for lizard men, and let me tell you their army book rocks, and the new models do too.

Indeed. Engine of the Gods, with Skink Priest/Chief to accompany it

While I agree on the basic point of the post, I do quite like the kits simply for the base they give for the CRAZY SCRATCHBUILDING that goes ontop

Stegadon? I WUV the Engine of the Gods configuration... As well as Skink Priest and Chief
Stompa satisfies my urge for destruction

That too. We'll probably have to wait a while before we hear anything about that.

Checked the Apo-book and they (Supa-skorcha) use only the ordinary Template which can (or must) be placed with the narrow end within 12" from the weapon. So that settles that I guess...

Clever Iron (cog) Halo on the Ork krew on top of the head. With Space Marine models becoming ever more extravagant, it's good to know GW still knows how to use the Orks to poke fun at other armies.

Khorneguy — Sun, 11 Jan 2009 11:00:18 -0000

it probably uses the hellstorm template, although i can't remember off the topof my head. so it wouldn't matter too much

For anyone wanting to know its size (the stompa) take the revious pic and zoom in until the ork boy in it is the same siz as the one in your hand.... i'd say this beast is about a foot tall give or take a coupla iinches

Are the arms a ball-and-socket design for posability?

Although I would love to see a plastic Trygon, I would prefer getting plastic gargoyles at a more reasonable price than the current metal blisters...

Hmmm, having the flamethrowers mounted so high up won't that seriously shorten the range of them as you have to put the template from the barrel of the flamethrower?

Looks almost excactly like the last pictures we got, but cool nontheless :)

I think it is probably an engine of the gods as mentioned in various article about the steg kit.

Maybe it'll be the same sprue as the deff rolla! Then we could make a mekboy speedsta with a lifta droppa on top out of the battle wagon! That would be genius.

these are by far amongst the most beautiful kits i've seen of a stompa. awesome.

hehe, I just wanted to point out the same thing :)

I'm impressed, just about every single piece has a whole heap of detailing on it, look at all the different styles of metal work and the badly cut out panels not to mention the huge rivets and girders on the back of the thing. Then there's the crew and the riggers, it's looking like a really great kit.
Digging that Stegadon as well, thinking of getting one for that instant stargate on it's back, lol.
