Scale question
« on: January 04, 2014, 11:24:59 PM »
Hello everyone,

Im looking for a nice big Thor miniature to act as a god element in my HoTT Viking army. My local gaming store can order Reaper miniatures in and i noticed this http://www.reapermini.com/OnlineStore/norse/sku-down/02701#detail/02701_Thorfront_ds any idea how big this miniature is? Judging by the price im assuming hes just a regular 28mm miniature.

Does anyone know of any other Thor miniatures that would be suitable?

Thanks,

Andrew

Bronze Age has this one:



I've got it and is a big bastard towering over any other human miniature in my collection. I don't have it here, but I guess he's about 40 mm tall.

If anyone happens to have a scale shot of the Bronze Age Thor id LOVE to see it! Its advertised as 32mm so i was a little hesitant when i saw it originally (before i posted this) but if Arthadan is correct and hes bigger then he will be perfect! I love the shape of Mjölnir on this miniature. Its such a stereotypical shape you know what the model is the second you see it.

There's this guy from North Star for Of Gods and Mortals. He stands 45mm tall.

Northstar Thor is also 40-ish mm, £15 from their 'Of Gods and Mortals' range.
