It is a great looking mini, but I'm not sure what it adds to someone's overall collection. If you have any of the existing nice metal Skaven Warlords or the terrific plastic one from Island Of Blood and possibly the new Spinetail model too then this miniature is a bit redundant, though undeniably well done.

Well at least this gives me a reason to go to Games Day next year, haven't been for a fair few. I'll have to let my wife know so she can think about entering Golden Daemon again.

Thats a possibility for me, potential Standard Bearer conversion as well. (might grab a second for that.)
He won't be a Warlord though, he'll be like Spinetail who's ended up in charge of my Plauge Monks as a Plauge Priest.

Ironically, if you are an Australian Skaven player this miniature just became harder to get. For the past few years we’ve been able to buy the Games Day mini in GW stores because, well, we don’t have Games Days. However, now that we’re getting GD's back, and it’s only a single Games Day, in a single State, and it’s going to be held on the same day as the single biggest table-top/Roleplaying/boardgame event in my State (if not the country) of the year, this mini is suddenly a pain to get hold of. Good job GW!

Sign me up! Very nice figure in the "new style" for the Skaven. I'll definitely be looking to add one or two to my Skaven horde!

I would have thought they would go through various concept sketches and the like until they all decide on a model to represent Games Day.
So regardless of whether some people liked it or not, it was obviously the best one put forward at the time. You will never please everyone.......
.......not unless they release Grombrindal as the GD model one year!

Considering how many versions(is it 4 or 5 now?) of Grombrindal they've made over the years for the magazine, do we really need one for Gamesday?
