Ihave bought from these guys before and they were brilliant! I ordered at 11am, and two days later the djinn and sorcerer arrived from Greece! Their resin in a little waxy, but it paints up well.

Really excited to see, thanks for the link.

Really curious to see what their last army is going to be, not to mention the greens for the rest of the armies. I think 2015 is going to be a glorious year for the Empire in spite of whatever crap GW drops on us.

Let's see, we have this kickstarter.
Warlord is releasing the Arsenal miniature line and possibly Pro Gloria's stuff.
White Knight has foot and mounted knights coming out.
Raging Heroes has their new kickstarter coming up with the all female army with a serious Sisters of Sigmar vibe.
Last sword is working on a different batch of foot knights.

Good days boys, good days.

Not to mention they are also making imperial ogres...

I mentioned that the drawings were a bit over the top when they posted this on LAF. They indicated that the greens might be a bit more restrained than the drawings.  Time will tell.

At least the concept does not give him skinny toothpick legs like the promising mantic ogres and trolls.  Time will tell indeed, though!

I don't think the Mantic Ogres are really that bad. The trolls looks all kinds of bad, though.

I would like White Knight to tackle Ogres. I hope his Empire Giants project is still moving forward.

I've thought the inverse really...trolls can look the spindle legged stupid since it fits but not Ogres...


Mantic Trolls I think are really nice, especially for the price

I myself am very picky about my trolls so Mantic trolls wouldn't do at all. I do wish someone made John Bauer inspired troll miniatures like in this picture.

There is a kickstarter beginning at the first of the year for a new viking board game. It has some very high quality sculpts for the pieces and the troll looked to me like an exact copy of one of Bauer's trolls. I will try to find it.

There was a kickstarter a while back for a Paul Bonner troll... similar aesthetic, if not pricey:

Oh, I will have to look into Blood Rage. :Ohmy:

I also already have the Trudvang troll. I just haven't had time to get around to assemble and paint it. Should I make a plog about it when I get around to it?

Yes please.

On a side note, I think the Forge World lady troll is pretty nice as well.
