Another Red Gobbo Chrimbo model.

Da Roolz for Gobbo https://www.warhammer-community.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/11/tvW7Dd5Ihf78pINe.pdf

First Christmas model i've actually been tempted by for the last few years.

We can canonically compute how big gobbos are using the citadel paint bottle on his base

But what’s the scale on the brush next to it that’s as big around as the pot?

Clearly its a citadel tank/terrain brush or whatever the big ones are called

Wait, is da Red Gobbo not wearing any pants under his coat?

I quite like that christmas minature, but not so much for the Red Gobbo himself. The base he's standing on with all the little paint pots, brushes, gifts etc is great.

Even the Red Gobbo rolls 1s...

Pointedly, this model does not features the turkey and pies box from the rumour engine, so that's unlikely to belong to an xmas miniature now.

Still a chance it's the Boxing Day miniature

How often do they have multiple special holiday minis for the same season?

Dont they usually do the red gobbo pre-christmas, and another mini post-christmas on the 26th onwards? Not usually Christmas themed, but usually something a bit more whacky.

I dunno I'd call them whacky:

https://www.warhammer-community.com/2020/12/20/sunday-preview-a-very-warhammer-christmas/

The only other boxing day miniature I can think of is a 40k-ified Grombrindal with a grot servitor, which is kind of whacky.

I still don't understand why they're doing a fancy dress version of a Gorkamorka character, instead of Phanta Claws from Necromunda.

They usually do. Last year had the Goff Rocka for Christmas, Ghoul King for Boxing Day/New Year. 2021 had the Red Gobbo on Bounca for Christmas, Gorzag and Nikkit for boxing day. 2020 had Bugmannson for Christmas, Bawla & Burk for boxing day.

I just like that the painted version of this Gobbo clearly shows a bottle of Mechrite Red in the snow.

Long live the best Foundation Paint

It goes up the chimney down, but not down the chimney up?
