I’m at he point I need to see the unpainted versions from FW. As it stands I won’t buy that from the paint job making it look more like a fourth party sculpt than pros.

Maybe the sales already have slowed down? It's amazing the amount of products released for Blood Bowl. There's about 24 teams (we're closing in on half already released?), each team gets so much content (dice, pitches, magazine, cards, cheerleaders ++), some teams come in alternative sculpts, then there's the big guys, star players, books, sleeves ++. How many unique Blood Bowl products have been released now, after 2.5 years? And much more to come in the future!

I honestly thought this was a "Made to order" model dredged up from the older Blood Bowl game, not a new model.
Why does Necromunda get mostly great sculpts, but Blood bowl usually suffers?

I don’t like the right arm. Maybe it’s the chain mail that’s doing it, or the pose, but it looks off to me. The shoes aren’t helping, I see evil Santa elf shoes more than stomping shoes.

I missed that it was actual spikes on the toes in the painted picture. Thought it was just long pointy toed boots.

True, but it sucks for anyone new to the game. They'll be stuck with the basic pitch, or shell out for a neoprone one, not to mention be stuck with green/blue dice instead of any kind of generic dice. Good thing about the Necromunda boxed set is the dice and boards are generic and can be used with any team. But the accessories in the BB core set are very much unique to only two teams. Also, going by last year by now we should have had the second team of the year announced and then released in a couple months. The release schedule for BB this year has been very slow, we sitll don't have a release date for Halflings. If they plan on releasing four teams this year, it looks like they might all end up being close together during the last six months of 2019.

I think it’s the paintjob for realises this time.
There’s just no, ahem, Contrast in the palette. Just natural hues.
Stick a bit of red or blue on, and it might help the sculpt pop?

There are sooooo many Deadpool insult lines that could describe how that looks....but in Warhammer terms I think it looks like a GUO’s hemeroid exploded and had had baby hemeroids .

I kinda like it, looks really angry in contrast with the more silly halflings. Still hoping the regular treeman is plastic though.

I think it’s better than the Rat Ogre imho. Mildly perturbed they’re showing this before any generic treemen.

I like the Borak model. Giving a thumbs up to the fans while he's charging forwards. It's got style written all over it.
The Treeman? Mr Dong-nose looks more like a Slaneshi Tentacle Monster that was painted the wrong colours.

Meh. They look like they could've been made in the 90's. Sad that the main line have moved on, but BB is still stuck there.

Both the chaos and tree man look terrible. Worse than the oop models.

Stikk bommas are special among ork society for one reason - They know when you pull the pin out of a stikk bomb you throw the bomb not the pin!

If I played Chaos in Blood Bowl, and I bought FW models, I would buy that Borak model in a Heartbeat.
It is one of the most fun, capturing the soul of a Blood Bowl models I’ve ever seen.
