Er, thread hijacking.... :oops:

Once people have satisfied Scott :o then if there are any Ogres (new ones) kicking around that people would rather have cash for then I'm in for some.

Cheers.

We return you now to your normal programmes.....

This should explain what happens then...

Short version is, GW are discontinuing the BB Ogres on the 10th.

After december 10th GW will "rationalize" their range of minis and BB will loose the new ogres and the human team "The Marauders"
So before to ask to GW 13€ each (18€ for the throwers) it makes sense to ask somebody that don't use them (or like them ) no more.
THanks again

I guess I'm not surprised, but I am disappointed.

The Ogres have been on sale for what? Only two years? Three? That's not long, and for minis that good and posable, it's a shame to see them go.

The upside is that other companies are producing good fantasy football stuff. But you'd figure the company that started it all would take better care of the game.

Ah, whatever. Now that I think about it, I ordered about six GW Blood Bowl Ogres a few summers ago, and gave away most to my friends. I used one, and opted for the Heresy Ogres once those became available.

Hmm. Odd, that.

hmm....be really really nice to me and send me a few of those 2nd ed. orc blockers and I might be able to whip up a "Hooturz" Orgal for ya in the coming months. I just ordered my Ogre team with 2 cheerleaders.

:P :D

I think so. If not I'll email it to you shortly. Damn, a second painted ogre out of me. You'd think its all for some hot chick, not some fumanchu that wears assless leather pants. :P :wink:
