I think they look a bit shite tbh

I was worried it was just me!

I try to be a positive kind of guy, but even for GW these look way OTT and puerile to me. Perhaps what I think a ghoul is, does not match they think a ghoul is.

I don't like them particularly, but I also don't think they're rubbish.

I think it's the style. I suspect they have gone for a more unique look on a ghoul because of all of the generic looking ghouls that are out there.

I mean, the Muller ones that Heresy have are decent enough. But then you have the mantic ones (though only really one decent head for them and limited poses).

[Captain Harlock]

But at least three of them are 'heroic' judging by the 'foot on a rock' criteria!
 

The one with the halberd is pulling off a great Bruce Dickinson impression

[JamesValentine]

Not just mean that thinks they're crap at least.

Oh I love OTT and puerile most of the time but the anatomy is puzzling (I see what’s supposed to be going on with the hunched backs but...I don’t know  ) the giant flowing merkins are frankly ridiculous!

I know they're loincloths, but now cannot unsee merkins. My eyes! My brain!

In other news, the new Warcry faction preview guy looks surprisingly boring, given all the other gangs.

It looks like Marvel are going to be publishing GW comics. How long before an Avengers/Ultramarines team up?

Fully expecting imminent announcement of the Sisters of Battle Disney princess movie.

[Lost Egg]

Just think of the songs for that!

Are they though? They're hairy, don't have any string holding them in place from what I can clearly make out, and their larger brethren, the Crypt Horrors, definitely just have very hairy nether regions(/merkins). I think the current normal plastic ghouls do have loincloths, but those look like.. cloth.

I used The Hobbit Goblins for mine, and they're better ghouls than GW ghouls (or Mantic ones), although I did use the Heresy Ghoul King as a leader...

[Cubs]

Yeah, they work well.

Love those goblins!
