I think GW does a really nice job on the orcish aircraft |

Best thing about that kit is all the different possible variations: Angles of the wings and whether/how they are armed. Placement and angles of the horizontal stabilizers. Grot gunner or not/Grot gunner enclosed or not. Enclosed or open cockpit. Modular (so different) exhaust options. Airbrakes up or not. One has the potential to make a few versions of not-quite-radically different aircraft – true to the orky way
you can ensure no two look exactly alike.
Being a greenskin player, I have four of these jets
though IMO the rules greatly favor the Dakkajet as the optimal option over the Blitzer-Bommer or Burna-Bomma. |

very nicely done. I have four of those bad boys, too. I've loved the look of the Ork fightas and bommas since I first saw the Epic minis, and Deff Skwadron, and Bommerz Over Da Sulphur River, plus I still build plastic model kits, so these were an obvious purchase for me. "Ork Fighta-Bommaz – When you need a jet real bad, we've got a real bad jet." |

Glad you like it boys!. (smile). Amicalement Armand |

For the Bommaz the Puppet wars variant makes a real good alternative – for roughly the same price. Just to bring in even more variety :-) That said, this particular kit is imho one of the best. |

Yeah the dakkajet is the best option but the other two are just so much fun, it would be un-orky not to use them lol. I have three myself, one of each variant, and it's definitely one of my favorite GW models to assemble. |

Best thing about that kit is all the different possible variations:Angles of the wings Mardaddy – can you alter the angle of the wings so that they are "flat" (i.e. parallel to the ground)? I love the Dakkajet but hate the crazy wing angles that seem to prevent landing
Thanks, w. |

Buy a cheap mig 15 1/48 scale kit
..go nutz! |

wermacht – You can arrange it so the wings are straight/flat. The wing cannons closest to the wing intakes are their own piece, and are modular; you can assemble as shown, reverse them for a different wing angle, or leave off altogether for the "straight" wing option. |
