The Gorkanaut possesses all the unsubtle brutality of Gork along with a blocky silhouette that looms menacingly over friend and foe alike. Piloted by an Ork Nob, this hulking orkoid armoured war suit is the epitome of everything an Ork aspires to be: Massive, tough, loud and destructive.

The Gorkanaut’s main weapons are the deafening and deadly Deffstorm mega-shoota and the massive armoured Klaw of Gork (or possibly Mork). It is also armed with two twin-linked big shootas, two rokkit launchas and a skorcha.

Personally built and piloted by an Ork Mekboy, the Morkanaut possesses all the lethal kunnin’ of Mork. Packed with glowy gubbinz from the Mek’s own workshop these mighty engines exist purely to cause carnage.

The Morkanaut’s main weapon is a profusion of worky gubbinz and zappy bits known as the kustom mega-kannon. It is also armed with two twin-linked big shootas, two rokkit launchas, a kustom mega-blasta and the Klaw of Gork (or possibly Mork).

Wow...

...$105...

...but I have just one thing to say to Games Workshop:

"Why would I buy a Morkanaut or Gorkanaut when I can just build one?"

I know what my next Ork project is going to be.

Not really seeing the value of this kit, for just €12 extra I can get another Stompa instead.

It's not exactly exciting stat-wise, unless we're missing some special rules aside from Rampage for the Gorkanaut.

Not sure what they want to do with this thing either, is it supposed to be an assault vehicle? If so, why such a low transport capacity? Is it supposed to be a shock element? It will be dead before it can hit enemy lines, KFF or not.

The Knight has a nice "wow!" factor going for itself, this on the other hand.. NOPE.
