Another thing I have done in the last few months is introduce my 7yo son to the wonderful game that is Blood Bowl. I used to be a big fan of the game and ran a very cheesy Wood Elf team so when I spotted the 2016 starter box at my new FLGS I had to get involved.
The starter box comes with two lovely teams at the newer 32mm scale that everything seems to have crept up to, glad to know it's not just me needing glasses as I get older, one Orc and one Human team of 12 players each. however Khaden being Khaden he decided to pick his own team and after looking through the GW website he picked Goblins. They come in a team box of 12 Goblins, but the best thing about Goblins are the players that have special rules and secret weapons like Chainsaws and Bombs. There are 2two options to get these, buy them from Forgeworld, the resin specialist offshoot of GW, or scratch build them. I opted for the latter and after buying a second team box and some bits from bits resellers I ended up with these.
A ball and chain wielding fanatic, every bit as dangerous to their own team as the opposition.
A chainsaw wielding looney, perfect for breaking Dwarfen "cages".
A doom-diver, traditionally these have crude wings but I added a rocket pack.
A Bomma, what can be more fun than lobbing explosives around?
A pogoer, the most complex of my conversions, a bit of extra mobility.
Just the 'ooligan left to convert out of the Goblins and then a few trolls are needed to round out the team, these will be converted from some AoS figures.
