May I present: The Cat-Ogre

Wow, I like the style of this mini. Here is the idea behind:
------------------------------------------------------------------
I'll cut off the Axe and convert it with some Teambadges. My skaven-team the "Eshin Equinoxers" brought that Big-Guy home from far Cathay. He is a real basher and a great threat to all enemies.
--BUT--
...it would be absolutely funny to give him 'Always Hungry'. It always happens when his instincts take control!!!
I already ordered one, 'cause it's just too much fun to have a Cat-Ogre in a team of rats.
I think he will be called Tom and one of my linemen Jerry.

Excellent... and in addition to the Always Hungry how about adding something akin to the THRUD's Fans rule, where there's a chance he'll turn on his teammates.
That's a sweet fig.

Could you please be a little bit more exact... I don't know what you mean. Are there pictures of Phills Desert-Dogs ???
QUESTION:
-------------
Are there any other Cat-Warrior Miniatures from other publishers. If I find enough, I would probably try to make up a whole team of cats!!!

Nice model ... quite big looking at the human heads dangling from its belt
Looks a bit Kilrathi to me ... now who remembers those?

Absolutely right, it's about 60mm.
@ Kilrathi:
Officer: "What the hell was that thing flying across???"
Shipmate: "That was our wing, Commander" *salutes*

Some people may remember that my avatar was a Kilrathi before the great purge of 2003.
In fact my handle - Furelli - was my pilots name when flying in Wing Commanders 2 and 3 - Zack 'Furball' Furelli.
Furelli.

I searched the Reaper-Site but this was the only one I found....
He is absolutely cool, but I would need many more to build up a whole team. Also Fenryll-Miniatures has none in their range.
@Phigs-Desert-Dogs
Not the style I'm searching for, but a good concept it is...

All their cat-range is not useable as a team.
