I ordered some new Dragon Ogre weapons, arms and torsos from some bit suppliers and hoped they would work with the new FW Bull Bodies but I just don’t think I can pull it off without it looking odd. The Dragon Ogres are simply too small. I think I might have to take another look at the Minotaurs or even standard Ogres. They seem bulkier.

I’m so sorry to here this. I though they may work too .
So are you trying to make new Bulls or just trying to re arm the one you have

I'm so sorry to here this. I though they may work too .I'm just trying to convert the FW Bulls to hold GW's. I thought I could just use the Dragon Ogre arms with the Bull Torsos but they're too puny. So I ordered some DO Torso's but they're also scaled in such a way that they're too small for the Bull bodies. I have 9 of the FW Bulls. One of them is being converted to be my Tauruk, but the other just might end up staying HW/Shield unless I can come up with something that will work for GW's.

Kera foehunter:
if you have the choice i go with the minotaurs they are larger than ogres…
or make some weapons out of 5mm plastic card or an old credit card that you maxed out
Jossy:
I have done some conversions with minatour fists/weapons.
The fists are a tiny bit to small but hardly noticeable, the weapons seam to be fine so far, if not a little to barbaric compared with the FW CD style weapons
Animatone:
if you have the choice i go with the minotaurs they are larger than ogres..Yep I'd have to agree with Kera, I've compared the two and the minotaurs are definitely a better fit size wise. So I'd say pick up some of there bits online if you can. They'd work real well.

Funny to see this post. Just last night I took some mino GWs and stuck em on. Seems a really good match! The hands are just a tiny bit small and should probably be pinned and then perhaps have the seam filled with green stuff.
tvandyke:
Those are nice bulls, unfortunetly, it's too late for me to start from scratch. I've already spent a fortune on the FW Bulls so I'm using them. To be honest, the FW Bulls are awesome looking models. I actually hate to cut them up. Ideally, simply replacing the arms with GW arms and weapons would be best. Sounds like the Minotaurs are the way to go.
