If you want to go really economical:


GW Goblin Warriors box (then sell/trade off the extra gobbos)
2-3x Reaper Bones Cave Troll (third as Ripper, easy to convert their arms into different poses)
+some GW Bits weapons, eg orc chainswords are perfect chainsaw

If you want to spruce up the team, go for a pirate theme with a sprue of MaxMini pirate goblin heads (10) and add some piratey nautical bits to the team and trolls

The Reaper Bones Cave Trolls are where you'll save A LOT of money, as you can get all three trolls for around $6 (usd). When I first saw them I grabbed three for my eventual Gobbo team, as at that price point you can't beat 'em and they fit perfectly onto 30mm bases. Also very easy to paint and convert.

I choose nippo goblin team. for 3 reasons :
- price : 16 players + 2 tokens for 99 (everything in one place reduce tax and port)
- theme : it's original and "every" mini is very well done
- sloth : I'm tired of conversions, I made a lot for other team... One time, nothing to do is great

ps : In the nippo a realy hate one detail on a gob. What happened to his left hand ? The sculptor was tired I think... I have to cut his hand and replace it by another one, it's horrible.

ps2 : the pogo stick is realy fragile, I'm scared he will break during a game. I already add some green stuff to reinforce the bottom but I'm still not very confident.
