Forest Goblins?

I am thinking about collecting a themed Savage Orc and Forest Goblin army after Dark Elves. However, after flicking through the Orc and Goblin army book I've seen that there are no such things as Forest Goblins anymore

(Although there are still Spider Riders in the Savage Orc list.) In past editions were there any special rules for Forest Goblins or will normal Goblins do just fine?

There are rules for special types of goblins in the 2003 chronicles

There is just one problem with the special gobbos in WA2003, there are no forest gobbos. You could use nightgobbos and doom divers as forest goblins cause they used to drug them selves with spider poison, as such fanatics and doom divers would represent this aspect well, and you could use wolf riders as spider riders.

I expect I could convert normal goblins to be Forest Goblins and Spider Riders. However, where can I get good giant spider models? Personally I thought the old forest goblin spiders looked stupid!

There are WHFB spider models, although how good they look is anyone's guess-I have never seen them put together-they don't look too awful in the packaging though.

Thanks for all the input. I have decided that I will use the spiders on the Games-workshop store. I searched for them and it came up with only a few spiders and riders. Does this mean this is all they have or do they have other kinds?
