Just arrived this morning! :D

Boy are these babies big! I have no camera but I'll try to give best info I can until they start to appear elsewere:

LENGTH: 60MM Nose to end of tailfin.
WIDTH: ?50MM Wing tip to wing tip.
HEIGHT: 18MM Engine to ground.

Comes in 8 parts:

- 1 - x1 main body
- 2 - x1 tail section
- 3 - x2 landing pads
- 4 - x2 weapon racks
- 5 - x2 weapon pods

Detail is excellent, and they look very nice without the tailplanes on them. Reminds me of air attack vehicles from Rouge Trooper comic. I don't have any metal ones but I have seen them and they are tiny in comparrison. Could be used and varients if used in the same army? ???

Cheers.

I have preordered the S/G ones too, so I'll have both types.  Hopefully in a few weeks ... ???

I like the sound of them.

I have the FW Ork Bommers now and they don't seem too big, comparative photo soon.

Hi!

Mail is slow to PR sometimes so that may explain it in my case.

The thing with Ork Flyers is that they look good as a rag-tag collection of different sized vehicles!

Imperial ones on the other hand just look out of scale with the other ones!

Cheers

Chris

Hi!

I found the FW ork planes and the metal ones not to be too out of wack in size. They are the only FW fliers I consider buying more of. THe rest are just too big...
