Another Ork vehicle was just spotted at the grand opening of Warhammer Citadel in Texas. Check out all the big reveals from the event for the Warhammer hobby.
Moving into 8th edition, we knew that Xenos were going to be getting a lot of love. It looks like we’re starting to see the beginning of it for Orks. Speed Freeks will be coming with all new and updated models for the Boyz that like to go fasta!
If you wanted to check out the latest rumors about Orks, you can check it out now.
New 40k Orks Speed Freeks Box Set Spotted
Images of the Speek Freeks box were spotted on a site called Stepping Between Games, and they had more to say along with the pictures as well:
New kits supposedly include:
- buggies,
- trukks,
- trakks,
- bikes,
- boyz and
- nobz.
It’s out next for 40k releases, after the just announced GSC Vs Space Wolf box, but before GSC codex and new minis
A Peek Inside Speed Freeks
It looks like we’ve got a sneak peak of what’s inside the Speed Freeks box. Spotted in the comments on Spikey Bits Hobbies.
Looks like there are a ton of different bases for this box as well I guess good for a box that may contain all the models listed above?
Keep an eye out for the very latest on this HOT release.
Shortly after these pictures surfaced, Warhammer Community released this video showing some of the new models:
After 21 years, the Orks are finally getting an upgrade to their machinery. They needed a tune-up and they’ve definitely gotten one.
This is only one vehicle from the Speed Freeks box and the detail is out of this world. We’ve still got things like bikes to see if the rumor holds true. Who knows how good they’ll look.
New Buggies, Trukks, & Trakks: Latest Ork Rumors & Previews
Let’s break down the other sprues inside the box and see what clues they may hold:
What appears to be another Orky vehicle of some kind can be seen on the right in yellow, with four wheels and guns galore. It has what looks to be two-part tires with one set wider than the other. The chassis may appear in the middle left of the sprue, with exhausts and the undercarriage where the wheels attach in the fore. To the right of that Dakka galore with what appears to be missile racks as well. Above it is some sort of rickey planking or rails in brown or black plastic too.
In red is the new warbuggy from the video with molded fenders around its wheels, and a gun copula too boot. Above that, another yellow sprue with more wheels can clearly be seen as well. Perhaps strong evidence that the new box will indeed have:
Buggies, Trukks, and Trakks
Dragsta Previewed in Speed Freeks
See the yellow racer in the video? That’s the first we’ve seen of the Dragsta coming in the box.
We know the Buggies are getting model updates but we haven’t seen how the rules will change when the Ork codex comes out. Going by the model of the Dragsta, this thing will probably be able to fly across the map and mulch light infantry. Just look at the grinder on the hood of this beast. Also, they have a Squig strapped into the seat of this thing with a mechanical eye. That makes the model infinitely better.
GW Reveals Another New 40k Ork Vehicle & More
Looks like another vehicle is on the way for the Speed Freeks box set, as previewed on Warhammer Community
the gloriously monikered Boomdakka Snazzwagon! If you like going (very) fast and shooting things at the same time, look no further.
From the looks of it though there are still more vehicles to come in this new Speed Freeks box set, as something mysterious is still noticeable in the dragsta image above:
The new Boomdakka Snazzwagon’s tires don’t seem to match up to the three that have been previewed so far, so we may be looking for yet another big reveal this week.
Look at the gun that’s sticking out of the vehicle that monster is on top of. Is that a rumor engine bit in the background as well? We can also tell from previous images that some, if not all of these new vehicles, appear to be on Knight Titan bases as well.
Will other vehicles in 40k start following suit?
Also coming soon is a Troggoth for the new Warhammer Underworlds as well:
This bruiser will be smashing his way into Warhammer Underworlds in the not too distant future.
Thanks to the hard work of all of the Meks at GW, Orks will be ready to bring the pain at high-speed this Orktober. Will you be running an army of these bad boys when they come out? What do you think of the model?
Have you heard any other Ork rumors through the Grapevine? Let us know in the comments of our Facebook Hobby Group.
