Do any of you remember the M.U.S.C.LE toy line from the 80's? They were tiny toys rebranded from a japanese series called Kinnikuman, they came in big tubs and packets and tend to go for £2->£4 each on the secondary market. Whilst looking for a particular figure I found someone was selling them painted on Etsy and it struck me that they looked a little bit like those older, stranger Gamesworkshop miniatures like the Chaos Toilet.
They might need some shoulder pads but I think there's enough diversity in the range to make a Blood Bowl team with real character. Big bonus comes from the fact that they're wrestlers so they won't be holding anything that needs weapon snipping.
Let me know your thoughts.
The painted examples
M.U.S.C.LE figures, nice option for a team with character.

I have 6 of these in my cupboard at home which were intended as an ogre team. Had them as a child and re-bought them for BB.
Sadly I'm far too lazy, and poor at painting, so in the cupboard they stay.

Wow, totally forgot about those! I gather you would you be using them for a Human team?
