Well.. have to say, don't really like. Not at all. The orcs look rather crappy and not fearsome at all - and a toothless Orc? Eh? O_o [They use teeth as currency mostly, they are suppose to always grow back like sharks]. The goblins don't look much better either! Oh and doesn't the first orc's axe look like it has a cow on it from this angle?

Oh and Gorbad, first off bad picture but from what I can see.. don't like. The boar looks like it's about to bellyflop off a rock and Gorbad himself looks extremely hunched over - Orcs are suppose to be huge things and sure they'd hunch but this? Quasimodo has nothing on this guy!!

[I do still visit, just not post as much - not painted much]

I second that.
I suppose that GW is aiming at younger clients even more than before. Simple sculpts, cartoony colour schemes.

hmmmz while other companies aim for more detailed sculpts, GW aims for less. Probably because GW focusses on armies instead of warbands.

But with keeping that in mind these orks still suck. I had high hopes for the new ork sculpts, I shouldn't have

Metals will become classic and get marked up in price. These miniatures look like the Orc's from the early 90's as well as the cartoonie paint jobs. Not a good start for the New Warhammer.
