Post by Xzar »

The model keeps breaking with its one leg up in the air :(

Is GW going to make a new one or is there another alternative gobbo with chainsaw?

use the old 2. edition goblin with a chainsaw instead.
It´s smaller, but it looks much better

I made my own eminem-themed chainsaw gobbo, using the gobbo plastics as a base with a 40k chainsword serving as the base for a scratchbuilt chainsaw.

Not the best conversion or paintjob I've ever done, but not bad for two hours work :)

er...

sorry, you've totally lost me now..

PS Xzar, why not glue a severed head under Nobblas foot to give him more stability and also some character... paint the chainsaw all bloody and you're done..

eminem themed after eminem's much publicised antics on stage wielding a chainsaw and wearing a hockey mask... :roll:

My suggestion is.... build or glur a rock under his foot. Make it seem like he is posing resting his foot on something big. It will give a second "leg" of support for the mini.
