I spotted these a few days ago, along with a sweet looking dwarf lord riding a polar bear. Good stuff.

It's a similar body position, but different in key ways...
The wolfen is crouching, at rest, but ready to spring.
The Mino is clambering over the rubble. Different leg positioning, different centre of gravity and distribution of weight.

If Scibor would just sculpt up some variants of that bear and put some, uh, larger armored legs on it (say suitable to be used by other manufacturer's 28mm Scifi ranges), I would be buying some so fast your head would spin! THC?!? Forget it... Give me Thunderbear Cavalry any day of the week!
And, FWIW, I did drop him an email about it. Heard nothing back so far...

Not a big fan of the faces, but the body on that first one is great. It's got a perfect half-demonic cowbeast look to it.
And not to defend the GW minotaurs too much, as they are a little terrible, but the super-beefy cow look does at least have some basis in reality. They're called Belgian Blues...and they're friggin' huge! http://media.photobucket.com/image/belgian%20blue/SampleFish/BelgianBlue.jpg
