eBob Mongols

[Howard Whitehouse]

I know these are currently out of production (or possibly 'made occasionally, I'm not sure). But they look great!

 I'm trying to figure out the relative size/chunkiness of these compared to other manufacturers - Perry or Crusader, say. I think they are on the slender side, but are they as small as GW's LOTR plastic cavalry?

If anyone knows, please tell!

They are slender but I would guess taller than the GW LOTR stuff.  I have some in the pile which I can photograph for you but not any GW to compare to.

I have a set of these. They are indeed very slender (read: more realistic proportions) but are of the same height as the Gondor and Rohan minis - they don't look out of place when matched up against either force though. I am going to use them alongside my Easterlings as a small band of Balchoth mercenaries (but they are a little small in comparison to these).

I wanted to use these for my Doctor Who "Marco Polo" minis, but they weren't available then either.  Of the alternatives, Curtey's Mongols are pumpkin-headed, and the Assault Group versions are huge and rather clunky.

Just have one of his Mongols, and also the LotR are not mine (borrowed them from my son), but maybe it helps



The Mongol is up for trade, by the way

Not too many good pics of these around yet? Anyways, I got some of the eBOB highlanders, and they're pretty close to LoTR size, in fact I was going to use them as Dunlendings. So expecting these to be about the same size?

If you look on the pic, where the Ebob Mongol is in the middle of 2 LotR minis, it looks not too bad sizewise

That was some nice models. Me like!

I did see it, the question mark was more of a rhetoric question.
