More 1/72 monsters

The Ogre King

Another decent source of 1/72 monsters is the old Mithril range of Middle Earth miniatures. Many people love these; I'm not so keen. I always found them a little bland (and I was bemused by the fact that all the orcs were unshod).

Like the Wizkids D&D miniatures, they're more realistically proportioned than 'heroic' 28s, which makes them a nice fit as ogre-sized creatures in 1/72. I have perhaps a dozen of the orcs kicking around, including some children and the Great Goblin (above). Alas, I don't have the standing version, although I do have another similar uruk who will fit in.
