The Ork Menace has infiltrated my tabletop collection, and worse yet – my mind.
I’m totally addicted to collecting Orks.
This addiction started years and years ago when I bought an Ork vs Space Marines starter set – for the Space Marines, but ended up having more fun painting the Orks than the Space Marines!
By then though I had already invested into starting to build a Blood Angels army so I finished painting the Orks that came with that starter set and put them aside.
A few weeks ago, however, I was at my local gaming store and saw the Start Collecting Greenskinz set for Age of Sigmar and decided to get that to build out some Greenskins for AoS and I got re-addicted to Orks!
They’re just so much fun to build and I can’t wait to start painting them as well, but in the meantime I also decided to get into collecting Orks for Warhammer 40k, so I went and picked up a bunch of Orky goodness and got started.
The first set I picked up was the “Start Collecting Orks” starter set which I’ll be building out first.
Here’s a video I shot where I unbox the set and show you what you get with it:
This starter set is actually a really good deal as it comes with a set of Ork Boyz, a set of Ork Nobz, an Ork Painboy and an Ork Deff Dread. If you were to buy all of those separately, you’re looking at around $130 USD for all those Orks, but in this set you get all that for about $85 USD which is about $45 off retail.
Very sweet deal in my opinion considering it’s about 300 points of Orky goodness.
What do you think of this new set?
I’ve got a bunch of other Ork stuff I bought which I’ll be uploading the unboxing videos for over the next few days, but I’m curious to hear what your favorite Ork units, weapons and vehicles are.
Leave a comment below and let me know what you think of this starter set and your opinion on either collecting or playing against the Orks.
