Goblin team - Manufacturer choice

Post by snakees »

I realy want to make a goblin team for so long.

There is now a lot of good alternative for a goblin team. I just want to get your personnal feedback on all alternative to choose it right. Because you know, there is always a difference between manufacturer pictures and reality.

Here are the choices :

Greebo, nippo team 18 players + 2 tokens for 99euros
http://www.greebo.it/public/oscommerce2 ... cts_id=458

Willy miniature, they are gorgeous : 4 secret weapon + 2 trolls for 54$ (BTW : why there is no normal goblin ? Will the meiko miniatures be ok in term of size ?)
http://willy-miniatures.blogspot.ch/sea ... el/Goblins

Meiko Miniatures 12 gob + 2 trolls for 75euros (no secret weapon, which one to choose ? Willy ?)
http://www.comixininos.com/blood-bowl-t ... tures.html

GW - goblin night army conversion 30euros + 2 troll convertion 40euros + secret weapon on ebay

Other : one alternative I didn't spot


Please tell me your favorite and eventualy your personnal feedback if you own one of theses.

Thank you

edit : I saw the star bowl project but since I love Star wars, I'm not a big fan of futuristic team for blood bowl.

I voted Other.

The Gaspez Arts Circus Gobbos are my favourite, probably followed closely by the Neomics Gobbos.

As you seem to hold my opposite view on most every issue, I've voted for the option I like least. 8)

I totally missed the neomic team.

I agree they are realy fun. The trolls are just a bit under the gobs.

I hesitate between nippo and neomic now but I think nippo are a bit more original and the trolls are realy great.

mine is a blend of neomics and gaspez.
love the neomics minis, trolls aren't as nice as the gobs - you could get different trolls I suppose.
the gaspez are cool, but they are terrible minis. most are multiple pieces cut in silly ways that require lots of pinning (or possibly lots of fixing) and had tons of mold lines.

Neomics goblins plus Willy's Trolls and Secret Weapons
funest team possible by now

neomics goblins (numbers 1, 2, 3, 4, 7, 8 and 10)
there are some of the gaspez Circus team and Goblinforge ones really nice to mix up and get the very best team 8)

I agree that Neomic and willy are the funiest but I've had bad experience mixing manufacturers (scales, style, etc.)

For 99euros greebo is still the best value for money.

If you cannot stall out for an 8 turn drive to score with dwarves then you need to go and play canasta with your dad..if you can find him.

I really like the 'old school' Trolls in this team. Reminds me a lot of the second edition BB minis.
