I thought I had made a depressing post about how its back on their webstore in a softcover format along with the joke about being the saddest puppy in the world, oh well chalk that one up.
I hate to burst your bubble, but from what I have seen, the Battle for Vedros stuff seems to all be OLD miniatures repackaged for the purposes of selling in larger chain stores. Most of them look to be Black Reach Orks and Marines, but the Wartrakk looks to be the same old sculpt used in GorkaMorka. If I remember correclty, I think the newest kit in the lot is the Grots.
It is true that what has been seen thus far of Vedros appears to be half of AoBR, most likely 1 sprue that is being recast, BUT what hasn't been seen as of yet is the Vedros SM Bikes, SM attack bike, Ork Gretchen or Ork Wartrakk. They are very direct in their advertising that Vedros kits are snap fit models, and as they are marketing directly to an 8 year old consumer I doubt that it will be a recast of the 1997 kit.
Having made a number of those old school Wartrakks I can tell you that it isn't a Snap Fit. Sure you don't need a lot of glue, but the trakks won't stay in place without it, nor will the Orks arms or the handlebars for the driver.
All the Vedros kits are new packaging, each with a symbol stating "Easy to Build" implying that they are different from the stock option available at GW stores. Sure each of the kits stock from GW aren't exactly difficult to build, and all the artwork on the packaging we've seen before (well the Herda on the Grot box looks fairly new), but I doubt that GW would open up to the potential PR disaster of selling models to children that claim to be Snap Fit and aren't.
Could I be wrong? That is of course a possibility, and I've also been wrong many times before (case in point this thread). But I think the fact that thus far we have only seen the box art for the supplements to Vedros means that there is a greater reveal in the plans that hasn't happened yet.

Post Script: In the event that someone has spotted the Vedros Wartrakk please do let me know. Just in case I'll have prepared both a victory dance and a 'I guess I was wrong again' dunce cap.
