Have you guys seen this ForgeWorld Minotaur? I love the way he looks! It pretty much sums up the "essence" of a charging Minotaur for me. I don't really see much of a downside to taking this model and using it in a normal game of 8th edition. For that matter, many of the Blood Bowl models look like they could easily be used for a normal game of 8th. What do you guys think?

Awesome sculpt and most of all, he's painted correctly. The plastic beastmen minotaurs are some of my least favorite things ever but I bet that has a lot to do with their ass paint jobs in the studio collection. This fella seems to share some design with the Silver Tower Ogroid dude.

Yeah, this guys looks phenomenal! I really wonder if his "hair" is painted on that way or if the model is actually textured? It would be an awesome model if it is on there, but if not, that is an amazing paint job!

Hair looks like it's CAD design part of the model IMO.
I think it looks great. Agree it's inspired by the silver tower miniature.
The new Blood Bowl miniatures in general are really great. Love the orcs and Humans. Yes i think you could fit a number of them into various armies.
That being said much of my blood bowl stuff is from AoS/8th ed WFB collections with weapon snips and the like.
If you haven't played Blood Bowl I would highly recommend it.

No issues with nice Blood bowl miniatures being used in 8th in my opinion.

I saw this again today. This beast could definitely pull a chariot. Or even a Rickshaw of some sort - he just has that pose.
To me he almost looks like he should be pulling a football tackle skid.

Well, he could definitely be retrofitted with something like that, and it would be incredibly easy to fit two big double-headed axes in either hand to make him look really bad-ass.
