A bit of a longshot, but if you can find some old Chronopia Sons of Kronos miniatures, some of them make pretty good large sized barbarians.

Others have already commented on Foundry, Black Tree, and Celtos. Depenting on your vision of "barbarian" and how stuck you are on consistent scale (I'm OK with a little variation) I think those are all good suggestions.

And if you're OK with Foundry Ancient Germans, it's worth looking into Crusader Miniatures as well. I think Mark Sims has a similar style to Copplestone. I enjoy painting figures from both of them because of their clean, simple sculpting styles.

Anyone ever compare these Foundry retro barbarians with the Grenadier Barbarians?

Are the Celtos Celts similar in scale to the Grenadier barbarians?

I use both of them together with the Copplestones being just a tad bit beefier.
I used to be with it, but then they changed what it was. Now what I'm with isn't it anymore and what is it seems weird and scary.
