Very 'Cyanidey' in appearance. Not sure about the Halfling but the Goblin looks pretty decent

Love the gobbo. You can't see from that photo angle but the coin he's flipping is an exact replica of the one you get in the box.

The fling with the sandwich is awesome too.

The link in the article doesn't work, at least for me. I'd love some more information. Like when exactly ("Before Christmas", presumably Christmas 2016). Where? (In a store or only direct from FW?) And most importantly, when is FW going to offer the rumored kits to finish the starting teams?

With referee models incoming, it makes me wonder if we'll see a new rule for them on par with the new "Argue the Call" rule if you have a Head Coach model.

Maybe there'll be a Dreadball-style rule where the distance that a ref is from a foul affects how likely it is they'll spot it?

Something looks off about the arms of both models, maybe it's the picture but they look way out of proportion.

Oddly they don't look like GW models at all, so I am a little concerned if the forgeworld stuff is going to differ from the plastics we've seen so far.

I totally agree with you there, I don't know what it is, but they just don't 'have it'.' if I saw them on the Willy miniatures page, I wouldn't have batted an eyelid. Forgeworld usually have that, I don't know, more gritty/adult look? I can't explain it. That said, Bloodbowl is about humour, so dark isn't really in keeping with the game ethos.
