Waaagh!!! GW just previewed next weeks new release lineup that includes the new Ork Codex, Buggies, a Mek Shop and Sly Marbo of all things.

Hot off on the heels of the new Speed Freeks box, it looks like there is another wave of green releases on the way next week.

Let’s take a look at the latest from Games Workshop!

Three ways to get all the new Clan rules are coming your way next week in print, digital, and an exclusive collectors edition as well.

That’s right – Codex: Orks is launching alongside no fewer than FOUR new Ork Vehicles! Each of these is a radical reimagining of the classic Ork Warbuggy, representing different facets of Ork “Kultur” and giving you all manner of new tactical options when building your army.

Looks like you can now even you can field an army consisting of just Ork vehicles thanks to the Deffkilla Wartrike!

Looks like GW had a little surprise planned as well for this release, with a little piece of terrain to help the Meks whip some new creations into shape!

Every mechanised Ork army will want a Mekboy Workshop. This new terrain piece allows Orks to enhance the abilities of their Meks and keep anything from Trukks to Deff Dreads in fighting shape

And last but certainly not least a block of 20 new dice with Orky glyphs on them.

Of course, the Imperials could not stand idly by as the Greenskins got so many new shiny toys, and it looks the general release of Sly Marbo is upon us as well.

If you missed Sly Marbo the last time around, next week, he’ll be available to pre-order once more. The so-called One-man Army is an ideal addition to any Catachan collection and comes packaged with his datasheet, meaning plugging him into your Imperium army is simple.

Be sure to hit play on the video below to check out the full unboxing, build, and review of this sneaky, sneaky little zebra.

What do you think about all the new Orky goodness that’s coming out way soon? What’s your favorite vehicle so far?
