| here is what my son wants for his Blood Bowl team [Using the Orcs Team list]: Thrower: Black Orc: Blocker: Lineman [or Baby Bots] Goblins: [cause they are flying ones] Head Coach: the only thing we need now is a Troll sized Bot.... any one got ideas? LGW EDIT: arrghh just noticed the Black Orc Bot is on a 40mm base I think I am going to have to sort that out.

| Those are cool! How about... Hydra Miniatures - They have LOTS of robots! I googled "28mm robot miniatures" | |

| I think the black orc bot is going to end up being the Troll sized mini as its on a 40mm base. and the Orc Blitzer mini will bump up to black orc so now I need to replace the Orc Blitzer. What about this: LGW

| That team is above funny! Again, I love the strong themes, and LGW your themes are seriously great I find the 40mm base is irritating in BB, but if it's round the problem is a lesser one - if the figures feet does not stick out. Looking forward to see it on the board! | |

Looking forward to see it on the board! still waiting to hear back if it will fit on a 25mm or 30mm base. if it won't work on 25mm eg feet sticking over the edge i'll upgrade him to troll and then use the alternative mini as a blocker. I love themed teams/squads makes it easy to write background info and for some one to "get them" at a glance. will post pics once they arrive and are painted up. LGW | |

| Oh wow that looks like its going to be a cool team, makes me really want a robot Death Squad, though I don't think it would actually fit with anything in 40k even slightly. Now I'm sad | |

yeah I am going to have to swap the Black Orc out as he is to big for a 25mm base. but I don't feel like he would be good enough to be used as a troll. so the mono wheel gets promoted to Blitzers and the one we had as Blitzer gets bumped up to Black Orc. Still having a think about the Toll...... LGW | |

| ok with constant peer pressure Ausbowl forum, Death Squad forum, and TFF I showed my son the Rayman range of minis: Option B:Goblin Bot: Line Bots: Thrower: [depends if the weapon is separate or I can do a snip] Troll: Blitzer: [from recreationalconflict site.] So with this Retro Look I now have an issue what to use as for the Black orcs. maybe this guy: [but at $7USD each not a cheap option. Plus he is a limited edition mini, not sure on qty available.] This team would be over $100NZD whilst the other Team from BlackCatbases would be closer to $70NZD So I need some help please vote which you prefer and why. The lad likes both..... GreyWolf | |
