That looks like one of the much maligned plastic GW minotaurs. A lot of people have said that the eavy metal paint jobs did them no favours, though it's probably a blessing you can't see the god awful shins in that photo.

Yeah - the same seller had another minotaur from the GW set up for auction (which I ended up purchasing). Not as big a fan of this one. They are plastic, which wasn't advertised, but I figured out by searching GW's site. Paint job was also solid. I only did minor touch-ups to match my team colors.

The version I ended up buying: http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?Vi ... K:MEWNX:IT

..and very happy with it.
