I made one with a quick conversion; an island of blood rat ogre, with the head of a pink horror.

I was able to pick up one of the Rocky Mountain Rampage Bigfoots (metal though). I had been struggling with what to do for the Yeti and am very happy with this solution.

I had been wanting a massive human berserker, like an ogre about to go through a werewolf transformation with bulging veins, fangs, claws, etc, but I wasn't finding it. I was considering the Willy norse god is close with the barbarian head, some bear (didn't decide between Willy, Impact, and Reaper), and Gaspez Yeti when I came upon Bigfoot. The Bigfoot being from a fairly local tournament makes him special to me, plus I love the chunky-geometric style to him.

How about this one ...

He is from Reaper Miniatures ... Maybe a little toooo big, but still cool. I will check the size next week.

Otherwise i would think i´ll take the GW Yheti. Does someone still has a Yheti (for selling) somewhere? ;)

the limited edition (40 made) conversion created by a member of the Lutece league and handed out for free to some of his friends is still my favorite by a country mile... there's enough Troll to still be trollish, plus I love the slight Asterix and Obelix homage...

What a brilliant idea! I never would have come up with adding fur to an existing troll. Nor would I be able to execute it if I had come up with it. Still... the wheels are turnin'!

Yeah I really like when there's still a bit of "Snow Troll" in 'em. Mine is an old River Troll GS'ed up with fur and a n orc arm instead of a fish.
