For some reason I can't access the blood bowl gallery (the dutch one) and I can't seem to find a decent size picture of the second ed rat ogre anywhere else, has anyone got a decent pic?
Also does anyone have one of those pictures of the 2nd ed team with the player type and design number?
Sorry to ask for something that should be so easy to find but again its my phone (my only internet acess at the moment) it could be something to do with flash.

Hi,
My friend Lord Borak painted one up for his Skaven team in our local league:

Anthony used to post on here quite a lot a few years back.
FWIW That Rat Ogre is just a Fantasy Rat Ogre. There is no such thing as a 2nd edition Blood Bowl Rat Ogre. The first BB Rat Ogre was Headsplitter.

Oh. Really? That's sad to hear.

Not so sad, really. It's a terrific model that's perfect for Blood Bowl.

BTW the tail (and shoulder pad) is a conversion. Rat Ogres were bare-arsed back in those days. Also I didn't realize it wasn't a BB Rat Ogre! I always though it was.
PS: Yes I am still here

It's true that this is an old fantasy rat ogre, but... As GW couldn't/wouldn't/didn't supply an official one, this was made the official unofficial BB rat ogre.
Confusing? Yes! Has GW ever made any sense? No!

Here is another painted by Horekim. The left arm is from a 40k Orc Powerfist/claw. These were sweet figures and went very well with the 2nd Ed team.

Another nice alternative for a Rat Ogre are the new plastic RO in the 8th edition WFB box. The one in the 3 points stand is very nice.
I like the old RO a lot but he is more ST4 scale then ST5. I fits perfectly in a 2ed skaven team but may be a little small for the 3ed team.
