Complete RT02 Ork collection. (lemmy.world)

Been trying to complete this collection for the last few months. All 18 Orks from the original RT02 release.

I might be biased with my love of oldhammer but I think the earl RT era Orks by Kev Adams have never been beaten. They're so full of character and there was 50+ unique sculpts by 88.

Interestingly there was only 16 shown in the colour advert in WD93 for some reason. Wassock Rotbreath/Kaptin Gozeye (top left in my picture) featured in the flyer released in the same month but not in WD and Gurlak Macehand (top right) was added to the RT02 code in the feb 88 flyer even though he was sculpted at the same time.

100% agree on your love of Kev Adams work, for me his Gorfang Rotgut is what all orcs/orks should look like.

Gorfang is a complete classic! Although!!! I still remember being bitterly disappointed as a kid opening the blister to discover he didn't come with that incredible banner pole. I might be mistaken but I can't remember many figures that featured a banner so predominantly and not actually coming with one. Can any one think of any?
