They want us to buy two griffs; one with the chicken head and one with the normal head... I guess...

it does give an idea of the scale tho

A poor workman blames his tools etc.

Set the camera on a table (stack some books under it if necessary, or use a tripod if you have one - those wee table-top ones are handy), turn off the flash, set it up in daylight if poss (or a few desk lamps) and use the self-timer if it has one. That way, you'll get no flash reflection nor a blurry shot.

Can't wait to see some more pics but as i'll be getting them anyway I'll see how they look for real soon enough. Hopefully they'll get them available for the Blood Bowl, i'm not going myself but I know someone who is and it'll save on the ridiculous GW postage charge - I won't hold my breath though.

Shame there's no fourth Blitzer, probably means i'll have to do an order for another one anyway and repose him a bit. Still having the rest of the positionals on the team is a step in the right direction.

I hope all the new teams look as good as this when they eventually arrive.

with 16 in the box you can do a whole conference of representatives...

2 teams in a Pro Bowl one AFC teams one NFC...

eg. one QB in colts colours # 19 and Blitzer with Ravens #52 etc...

Don't know, in 2D that catcher looks like he's hugging a huge teddy bear.

does every team have a probowler???

who's representing the browns?

I can confirm the box contains 4 blitzers, 4 catchers, 2 throwers & 6 line men.

Jervis is trying to ensure they are going to be on sale at the Blood Bowl too - but it isn't up to him its the event's teams call. I'd suggest those of you going email who ever is responsible and ask if they are going to be on sale and if there is a stand

That's bloody nice. You can do a 'typical' starting lineup easily enough with just the basic boxed set which is great. I'll probably thrown in an Ogre just to give me a full range of options though, naturally

DS, any word on whether these are plastics or metal? I get the distinct impression they're plastics, but wanted to be sure.

cheers.

Pretty sure that the new hummies are metal dude.

Post by **DoubleSkulls** » Thu Apr 28, 2005 3:52 am

I was under the impression they are metal. I'd be surprised if they weren't since plastics have a very high initial cost
