Description
Some orks have a talent for making noise. Actually, that's not true, all orks are talented at making noise. Some orks channel their love of noise into musical instruments, actually, and these orks are called Rokkerz. The Goffs are the best at making orky Rokk music, and the best orky Rokk music is called Goffik Rokk.These guys have been out of print for quite a while, it was a real treat to get to work on them. Never mind that I complained constantly about them while I worked.

Thanks. These models weren't mine, though, they were done on commission for a customer.

AWESOME!!! But it'd be cooler if there was a drummer. Is it even possible to get one?

No, these three models are the only ones that GW ever made. That's why there's a Goblin playing the cymbals, I suspect. :3

The Rokkerz were discontinued when third edition came out. I don't know what they did way back in the day, I haven't been playing that long. Nowadays they're just display pieces, I think.

Wow, Third eh?
Third was the last one with Marines vs Orks as the boxed starter set, right?

No, that was second. Third edition starter set was Space Marines vs. Dark Eldar.

Ah, so I got in to it during Second.

3rd ed 40k had Dark Eldar & Space Marines in the box set.
the Goff Rokk band went out of production during 2nd ed and was last mentioned rules wise in the 'Waaargh! Orkz' book
