WTB: Skaven assassin / Skitter
Like the title says, I'm looking for an assassin, maybe even Skitter... At a reasonable price.

Re: WTB: Skaven assassin / Skitter
I have a whfb gutter runner model which is relatively suitable for bloodbowl. It's the same model I use for my team. It's the back left of these three : http://www.games-workshop.com/en-GB/Ska ... er-Runners which carries only dagger type weapons. Can do a hand off at the waterbowl if you're interested

Thanks, but it's not really what I have in mind... Not that I know exactly what I have in mind - maybe some of the older WHFB metal minis - but I'm sure I know when I see it!

Re: WTB: Skaven assassin / Skitter
For me, the trouble was that assassin models all had cloaks, which I didn't want. The GR model, I think, is of an older GW age too, so there weren't too many options. I think there's now a good new non-GW skitter model (meiko?) about, but otherwise not too much

Gutter Runners without cloaks... Don't think I've seen those in a while. Especially if the model is from GW, anyways.
I've seen a couple of old GW WHFB assassins (pewter models) that look a bit similar to the GW BB 3ed GRs - and I kinda like that look - but they were a bit too expensive. My Skaven team is made entirely of GW 3ed models so they would fit right in.
Haven't seen any 3rd party models that I liked - or at least not liked enough to use them in conjunction with my current team.

Just to avoid doubt, the back left GR in the picture I linked Doesn't have a cloak. Knife in left hand, spike on right hand and knife on his back.goldbaek wrote:Gutter Runners without cloaks... Don't think I've seen those in a while. Especially if the model is from GW, anyways.
However, when looking at an old GW catalogue I had (the one with the 2nd ed BB minis in it) there are two GR models with knives (in the couple of pages of WH skaven models) which are similar in style to the 3rd ed GR models

I was going to use assassin 2 or 3 from the pic Hucker posted for my skitter. But then I caved and stumped up the cash for the real one.

Re: WTB: Skaven assassin / Skitter
Hmmm, no - he doesn't look very assassin-ish to me. Too big weapons. But #2 or #3 could be a good solution.
Of course I'd REALLY like to use the real Skitter, but he's going for what I'd call silly money. I mean, £35 or the likes...???Barney the Lurker wrote:I was going to use assassin 2 or 3 from the pic Hucker posted for my skitter. But then I caved and stumped up the cash for the real one.

Re: WTB: Skaven assassin / Skitter
Found these three while unearthing the assassin. Let me know if one of these interests you.
