Despite playing since 1st edition I have never managed to complete a full squad including sideline staff, well I have now:

I like those. I'm sorely tempted to repaint or at least touch up my old teams, especially when I see nicely painted ones like this.

Good looking team! And the feeling of owning your own _painted_ BB team, priceless!  :)

I agree - nice work. Where exactly is the coach from? Lots of character you've captured in the painting of the face.

Very gritty looking squad you've got there!

Are these the current incarnation of the Reavers or an earlier, similar version?

These were the last metal team (barring one of the minis which is an even older 2nd ed lineman) GW/Specialist Games made before dropping Blood Bowl the last time around, I don't think they were ever marketed as the Reikland Reavers, just a Human Team, personally I think they are the best human team out there(sculpt -wise , not my paint job), theyre a tad smaller than the current miniatures but not so much that its a problem.

I just spotted that lineman - I think he is from the second edition (the one with the styrene pitch) accompanying metal line.
