@rastamann I think Speed Freaks was one of those ‘model + game’ boxed sets. Or at least … that’s why I got it, because I liked the Ork vehicles.

I think Killteam was a great idea, but I wished they had put more effort in developing the factions and backgrounds (a list of ten ‘random’ names isn’t worthy to be called a name generator IMHO).
Some got all the toys (spacemarines) and others either got basic choices or simply did not fit the concept (Imperial Guard elite commando’s ?).  And not all of the allowed troops made sense.

Harlequins were made to be Killteam only and are weird as an army (especially in big games), but somehow they only got the least amount of attention. They’re more or less the polar opposite of Imperial Guard who tend to operate in huge numbers.
Orks kind of do, but they’ve got a few proper big ones that can work as a killteam (or until GW decides to do OrcCry /GorkaMorka ;-)).
