New Ork Bommer

Saturday, May 26th, 2012


Oh yes…

The 2nd of June sees the release of the new plastic Ork Bommer.

Ever since an Ork aircraft first took flight and achieved supersonic speed, prospective flyboyz have been trying to outdo each other with their invenshuns. The most popular configurations of the Ork Bommer are the Dakkajet, the Burna-Bommer and the Blitza-Bommer.

It looks like a really nice plastic kit and you can make one of three variants. My favourite is this one.

It reminds me both of the Boulton Paul Defiant and one of the original Epic Ork Flyers.

With the price of Forge World kits as they are, it seems quite cheap at £27.50. Sometimes I need to remember that this is a plastic kit and Airfix usually sell something like this for £10!

Really nice concept and pleased to see it as a plastic kit. Time to rekindle that Ork Airfield idea that I had a few years back. Back then I bought the Ork Aircraft Traktor and Launch Trolley and repainted my Ork Fighter Bomma from Forge World.

Heavy Ork Bommer from the Golden Demon awards at GamesDay 2010.

Nice concept that uses the Ork Battlewagon as a basis for the model. I have a slight issue that it does look a little too bulky to actually fly. Bigger wings and engines needed really.

At GamesDay 2005 there was a Dambusters style game on, with the Imperial Guard defending and Orks attacking.

A closer look at one of the Ork Heavy Bommers based on a Hercules model kit.

Not too keen on the painting on this model, almost pink!


Flying over the battlefield

The Orks are moving forward, shouting at the top of their lungs, whilst overhead Ork Bommerz scream and release their payloads of bombs.

Flying over the battlefield

This is the scene faced by Simon’s Imperial Guard in a game we had.

Great fun!
