You do realise these are plastic though, dont you?

Emm...no I didn't. But I do now. Will they be on the Night Goblin Regiment sprues then?

What are you implying? ;)

Excuse my pessimism, but the new fanatics sux. They dont look evil, and they are too small in every aspect; body, nose and hood.

I don’t like those new ones at all. They look way to sane. Plastics or not I don’t like them.
I better get my hands on some of the old ones before these come out.

That one has the right feeling to it. I however doubt if he will do damage with that pumpkin. :lol:

Hey,

AFAIK these will actually be in a seperate box and not in the new Night Goblin box, though I may be wrong there.

The plastic Warboss is totally fantastic, havent seen the Warseer pics yet though.

I'm pretty sure on Warseer there's pics of the sprues, and gobbo fanatics come with the sprue IIRC. Suppose this will make them cheaper at least.

well the new boar looks rubbish. and i cant say much about the new orc shaman. its not looking gd for the orcs & gobos!

i think the one peice night gobos was a bad idea, they look so rubbish. i know if i were an O&G player i would get some current stuff before they stop making it!

I think the new goblins look fantastic.

The Warhammer World has been takign a darker themed turn for a while now, and the cheekyness of the goblins no longer has a place in the world. I think the theme is far more fitting, they actually look like the army that caused the dwarves so much trouble now, rather than a few green painted children playing silly pranks on one another.

Times are changing, i think that the new theme works, and the models look pretty good.

well if the standard and more customizability of the normal plastics applies to the fanatics things change a little, but not too much.

as for the rest of the army...they look good. I just don't like the look of the spider riders. the whole native american hairbands and such doesn't seem right. love the unit idea, hate the models.

Aaargh, I don't like new fanatics! Much bette old ones.
New shaman is terrible, not bad spiders but riders...no way!
I like the new gobbos.
Why I don't like them? As they lost the funny touch they had. As an old time player (4th edition) I cannot imagine a goblin differently than a funny, pesky thing.
The new fanatics ball is too large and I don't like carvings! I like chains, I don't think they are oversized.
It's a good thing that Gw recovers spiders!

Bah, I don't like them at all. The 6th edition ones were much more dynamic and crazed-looking. I love the one throwing himself up in the air, haha.
