Maybe the lighting washes out some detail, but I have to agree with one of the posts in the Warseer thread, that the front looks entirely too well built for an ork tank.

Looks like they based it off the Kil Krusha chassis.  

It's nice to see the return of Ork armor, especially since Ork tanks essentially died with SM2.  Sadly, that model doesn't look any better than a multitude of scratchbuilt tanks that have appeared on The Waaagh.  Barring amazing internal detail & novel krew sculpts, it's an exercise in mediocrity.

At least they got the combat dozer blade right vs what is currently on the Russ & Demolisher. :sulk:

I'm definitely thinking the same with regards to the front. Too sophisticated for Orks.

From the single view provided, it's definitely not too sophisticated if you are talking about Bad Moons or Blood Axes, but I don't see it as a good fit for the other clans.  Add a Deffrolla or some choppy blades and it could work for a Goff force, but I'd expect a thicker armored front out of Goffs.  In contrast, I'd peg the Kil Krusha as more fitting with the Deathskull style.

This model really reminds me of the many Ork Sturmtiger conversions out there.

Well it looks like something McGyver would build out of an old tricycle and 5 cereal boxes (and plenty of duct tape of course). What I mean is that it makes a (by ork standards) sensible armored vehicle. Slap some heavy armor plates on a chassis and get rolling. However It does look a bit bland to me. I guess I just miss the good old days that actually featured some pretty sexy designs. Give me a Lungbursta, a Skullhamma, a Gobsmasha, a Speedsta or something along these lines. But I guess they're too cartoony compared to the image Orks have gotten these days.

is it a malcador - lobba with a huge engine brick on the back?

I like it - looks it could take a good krumpin while delivering the same.

It doesn't look any better then some of the good scratch builds out there, but has the advantage of being possible to own...

Doesn't look that orky from the front. I hope around the back you can see like 15 grots on stationary bikes pedalling like mad to power the thing.

:p
