The walking book stack is the only one I've seen, but I have seen quite a few companies who make "books" as set-pieces, so maybe grab a few kits and bash them together? :D

I keep meaning to buy the book golem and forgetting. The fact it isn't in my collection is actually upsetting.

There's a "Chaos Book Golem" variation on it with a more Cthulhu-Mythos feel.  All here:  https://blackcatbases.com/product-category/figures/figures-library-figures-books/

Also single books:  https://blackcatbases.com/shop/accessories-weapons-tokens/accessories-weapons-tokens-indoor-outdoor-accessories/4x-books/

Thanks guys for the help.

I've got -- and *love!* -- the Black Cat Bases Book Golem. See:

For the Swarm I'm thinking something like a combo of these two images (don't hate me for the pony):

Here are stats for a Fifth Age D&D version that gets pretty close to what I mean:

I'm sure I've seen one -- possibly somebody's home-mod one? -- on the interwebs, just can't remember where or when. sigh
