its a skimmer that can apparently do the following:
Deepstrike with accuracy a la drop pods Move 24 inches Allow the disembarkation of troops anywhere along its move (but if more than 12 inches forces a dangerous terrain test) and a few other things aswell....

Well I for one am stoked. They took the forgeworld one and made it plastic. Just perfect. I'll take 27. Or I may settle for 7.
Your Orcs you say? Not sure how they'd end up getting one but I can see your Orks possibly looting one.
Hmm been doing a little reading up on this from other sources and apparently that is the Forgeworld Valkyrie and that they didn't get the plastic one done it time for the photo shoot, so I read.

I have heard that too but apparently there is no huge difference between the models. Still the news confirms the release!

Is '7' just a random figure or do you really need 7? Cause thats a lot of Valkyries!

Yep, Seen at UK designers Day or whatever they called it. Potsed a few of these in the General Wargaming forum but only the shot of the finished article. The sprues look awesome man. And should be able to Loot it quite easily
