The new HUMAN team from GW

Post by Thadrin »

There are pictures of the new human team in the new WD (lizardmen on the cover)!!!!

They're pretty damn cool, though one of the catchers is a bit dodgy (no pun intended).
The Blitzers are great.

30 quid for a team of sixteen figures...but only three blitzers (7 linos) for some strange reason. I guess they want you to buy a Griff as well :evil:

Not yet... :-?

AFAIK, the team box will contain 16 players (don't know about the positionnal players), and there wil be a blister with 3 players inside.
Normally, the team will be available in May ! :D

Are there still 4 Catchers? I can kinda understand the 3 blitzers wanting you to buy Griff, except that people usually HIRE griff so they can have 5 blitzers! The Mini's look awsome but why couldn't they just make a standard 16 man team with all the positionals filled? (ogre too :) )

They look really good - the hands look strange because they're in scale, rather than Popeye-proportioned...

The fist-spikes are a tad over-large, but that's easily rectified, and is a matter of taste anyway.

Edit: Found a ruler, and my concerns about scale are unfounded. They should measure in at around 32 - 33mm high, about the same as the Dark Elf minis I used for comparison.
