On display at the Forge World Open Day 2009 was a Reaver Titan.
Very impressive model.

Ork Trukk with Enclosed Cab
There were many of the new Forge World models on display at GamesDay 2009 including the excellent Ork Trukk with Enclosed Cab.
This Trukk model also includes a folding platform at the rear. This in my opinion is much better than the plastic platform included with the plastic kit. This is the same platform which we see on the long awaited Flakk Wagon.
This model is shown with the new Big Lobba. Now I don’t really like this weapon that much. Not sure what it does, but I know I don’t like it.
Siege of Vraks
This is from the amazing Siege of Vraks diorama by Forge World.

Ork Kill Bursta and Kill Blasta
Oh, nice new Ork models from Forge World.
The Kill Bursta
and the Kill Blasta.
These two fearsome machines of destruction are variants on the Kill Krusha, nefarious brainchild of the Murda Meks of Tigrus. Both new kits come with a highly characterful Ork commander and Grot communication system, as well as additional turrets for even more dakka.
With typical Ork ingenuity, Mekboys often nail huge rams and bulldozer blades to the front of what are collectively known as Kill Tanks – all the better to crush and bludgeon the enemy as these brutal vehicles plough through even the heaviest fire.
These huge models are hulking, slab-sided armoured behemoths: each model is around 10’’ long, 5’’ wide, and 5’’ high – take a look at the picture galleries below to see these new Kill Tanks compared to other kits in the Warhammer 40,000 range.
The Kill Bursta mounts a huge-bore Kannon capable of destroying bunkers and siegeworks with ease – the calibre of its devastating shells are such that a single round has even been known to tear the leg from a scout-class Titan (although this could be as much down to luck than the skill of the tanks crew). More pictures of the Kill Bursta can be found here.
The Kill Blasta mounts an insane array of Shootas, Gatlers and rapid-firing Kannons, collectively called a Giga-Shoota. This arsenal of dakka is wired to fire at the same time, engulfing anything unlucky enough to be within range in a fury of shot and shell, leaving nothing but scorched earth and fragments of flesh and armour. More pictures of the Kill Blasta can be found here.
Both Kill Tanks are full resin kits designed by Darren Parwood, with crew sculpted by Mark Bedford, and are available to order here for immediate release.
Full rules and background for both the Kill Blasta and Kill Bursta will be included in the forthcoming Imperial Armour 8.
I do really like these new ‘eavy tanks for the Orks. Very tempted to get them both.
Raptors Whirlwind
This Space Marine Whirlwind with Raptors doors from Forge World was entered into the GamesDay 2006 Golden Demon awards.
I do like the doors from Forge World, a quick and easy way of enhancing the plain plastic kits from GW.

Ork Big Trakk
Ork Big Trakk in the Forge World display cabinets at GamesDay 2009.
Originally this was to be a conversion of the Ork Trukk kit, however in the end it was decided to make it a full resin kit. Main issue is that it comes with no instructions and it isn’t the easiest kit to put together.
Damocles Command Rhino
This Damocles Command Rhino won the Forgeworld Best of Show prize in the 2005 UK Golden Demon awards.
The radar dish moved around and as you can see in this shot, the inside included “real” lights (made from LEDs).
It was very well painted and made good use of the Forgeworld Imperial Fists doors. Some very nice weathering as well.

Forge World Chaos Reaver Titan
On display at GamesDay 2009 was this magnificent Chaos Reaver Titan.
Very impressive model. I know some people feel it should be more chaotic, but considering the Vraks background, this slightly less “corrupted” Reaver make some sense in the fluff.
Another view of this Titan.
