Ridend from Relics by Tor Gaming should also work really nicely:

There's even the birds there - you just need to magnetize their limbs and heads

Some one mentioned the Zombicide Black Plaque Goblin King.

Alternative Armies have some great offerings for just this.

I'm not so keen on the Dodo riders, but find the right mount and they'd be great.

These miniatures are old school, so quite fine. Definitely worth getting a couple of packs of the foot troops though.

Cavatore is partaking in a new Labyrinth board game in roughly 25/28mm...includes a lot of miniatures, could be worth looking into - only in very early stages. I'd "assume" a handful of goblins would be included.

For some reason I thought that was going to be 54mm? If you're talking about the one that River Horse is doing.

It seems more close to 25-28mm when he showed a test-mini on a recent Beasts of War video, I could be wrong though! He showed the big cuddly guy....and he stood about 35-40mm from the look of it.

I haven't seen the video, but I got this off the Facebook page. "The 3-up version of the 54mm scale playing pieces for the game, sculpted by Johnny Fazer-Alien. For more information, please come to our website and subscribe to our newsletter: www.riverhorse.eu"

If the three up of Hoggle is 76mm then that would put the actual playing piece at 27mm and Hoggle is maybe Dwarf size next to the humans in the movie.

LOL, I just realized the picture I posted has Jim Henson to scale and if my understanding of three ups and math is correct that puts him at 40mm?

, well a good job they made it nice and simple with that scale picture!!!

What a terrible way to try and explain scale

Hoping it is vaguely 28mm, but not a huge deal if not. I doubt it will be a great way to get hold of enough 'Labyrinth style goblins' for any wargame.

I'm excited for it as a boardgame, but a good-looking one, so I don't mind what size they are really.

There's a few shots of other character sculpts on the last Beasts of War Weekender, including ones of a few both as the 3 Up and as the final size

Elbows · « **Reply #25 on:** January 26, 2016, 04:12:56 PM »

Yeah, my understanding though is that 3-ups are not simply 3x the height. Either way, the miniature they showed of that big fella on the right really did look much closer to 40mm...so I think it's closer to 28mm-ish. With our luck, probably something weird like 35mm.

Here are screen caps...

Photos nt working there Elbows

I'm really interested in this. I hope that they are close to 28mm although if the game looks any good I may still get it.

Elbows · « **Reply #27 on:** January 26, 2016, 06:22:02 PM »

hmmm...normal Photobucket link, not sure why.

weismonsters · « **Reply #28 on:** January 30, 2016, 04:16:33 PM »

Well if a 3-up of Jim Henson is 120mm, does that mean he has been shrunk to 40mm?

Elbows · « **Reply #29 on:** January 31, 2016, 05:08:56 PM »

No, it doesn't scale like that. It's more direct. So, a 40mm figure would scale first to 80mm...then double to 160mm. (from seeing the screenies). My photobucket account is eating my photos sporadically, wth?

Let's try this again...
