They are... However I would like to be able to actually see the metal ones?! Seems to be no images for them at the moment?

I'm not going to get these, but I must say they do look great - refreshing to see orcs that differ from the usual GW clones. Can't wait to see what some of the brush-boffins on here do with them  :D

The images of the metal orcs are on the army deals in the link provided above

As majorsmith says, there are images here: http://www.northstarfigures.com/prod.php?prod=11303

But it is odd that they have images of the models, but havent uploaded them to the relevant model entries on the webshop. It would be nice to know which goblin boss/shaman is which :)

Regardless, I'll be ordering some of these. They'll be great for anything from SoBH to Dragon Rampant. I could see GWs Fell Wargs working as mounts for them and maybe GWs Hobbit Goblins as smaller mishappen critters. I just need to find some nice trolls.

Interestingly, an additional goblin seems to exist: the goblin army deal shows 6 different unpainted figures, but the free model that's part of the goblin brigade deal is yet another goblin champion, although it ("Shabu") should be the same in both...

Thanks for the link.

Coenus, I think the other Goblin you mention about is the maquette that is only available with the current preorder deals?

Never mind, it's the one with the shield second from the left - looked quite different from the different angle! (And for some reason I named him the Great Goblin.)

The six characters:

Had to be done, had to be done ... if there's one thing this household lacks, it's 28mm orcs (ahem!).

Thirty-one goblins for twenty quid is very hard to argue with. And I think the freebie figure is by far the best of the metal ones.

I'm already envisaging making a complete HotT army from the box: four spear elements, two shooters, four warbands and a (kitbashed) magician - 31 figures exactly!

Waited with the Dwarves until it was too late, but that pre-order exclusive metal Goblin is indeed just too good. And now they also have a deal with both the Dwarves and the Goblins. That is horribly tempting (although I may then want to add a few of the metal Goblins, and some metal Dwarves if getting those as well...)

Buying one box for the moment, for small skirmishes. They look splendid!

Some rather good banner and shield designs available for both goblins and dwarfs also.

Yes. I noticed the transfers also. At 5 pounds though I didn't go for them.
I ordered a pack of gobbys and the 2 command packs. Nice little skrimish group from that lot.
