Hello, I'm searching for minis to make Jim and Bob.
Any idea?
I don't know if they are already made in miniatures, in fact.

Ogre and vampire speakers in Bloodbowl fluff.
In french version their names are Jim (vampire) and Bob (ogre), maybe another names in original BB?

They are these lovely chaps:

The famous blood bowl commentators, a ogre and a vampire. No mini has beem produced for them officially, I think there may have been a tourny mini a few years back but that could just be my memory playing tricks on me.
Conversions the route to go

Don't worry inkpwn, and thank's for the image, better explanation than text.

Thanks for the link, lucaslukydelux, nice mini but hard to find I think, we'll see.
At this time I 'm going on the road of converting with two minis of Gaspez Art: Orc referee (Benito orc) for Bob and mutated elf (from chaos team) for Jim.
Hope to finish them before Breizhbowl Tournament in April.

Ah, now I see!
also, those Lucy and Norse mini's are extremely neat.

Lucy is Andre Blank a.k.a. Princelucianus, right? Who Is Norse irl? and when, for what cause, were these made?

Ramsay used to help organize the Tulips tournament with Lucy and these miniatures were a tribute to them.

Cool!
I play with Lucy in our local Amsterdam league, but he has never told me about this (that he organizes Tulips yes, but not about the mini's) ... I will have to pursue this further ...

Hi Maarten,
I am not 100% sure but I think those minis are all gone.
I may, may have an extra set, I'll go looking for them sometime soon but not this weekend.
