I remember the rather boring army options of third, but the really good picture section, which gave some great paint advice terrain designs etc, they were not massive army books but they gave a lot for what you got.

This has been fun to read and I have a lot of the stuff that's been pictured. I started with the Hamlyn game of space crusade and it is likely that the lad that fielded those 6 dreadies bought the supplementary gamers pack. I still have the board cards and rules from that game. I then got the Ed two game which is how I started gaming orks. I still have the little markers which are now comming in handy to mark units with some of the effects my Eldar impose on the game, like soul burn.
But what I am surprised about is the fact that no one has mentioned Gorka Morka. I have the cardboard press-outs from that game, and the Ork fort. Must dig that out now they have strong point rules and things. The boxed kit was really good value and the game hilarious. It also inspired my first scratch builds, being as Gorka Morka was as much about mining and earning teef for the rescue ship as it was about thumpin hummies and those tragic followers of Mork.

it is a picture on a piece of cardboard with a plastic stand. i do not believe it qualifies as a "model" in any sense of the word.
