Yes, it's Asgard - and still available, from Alternative Armies.

Very nice. How does he scale to Copplestone or Kev White barbarians? More on the smaller end I guess?

"Uh, I better look in the manual... This book must be out of date. I don't see "Prussia", "Siam" or "autogyro"...

Not sure about this specific one but Asgard are very 25mm. Smaller than Copplestone (of which I have an abundance)

I remember - and it's a hazy memory - that the Asgard barbarians were fairly chunky. I once had the one with the boar helmet, and I recall that he was quite imposing. It says on the AA site that he's 27mm to his eyes, which would make him a bit taller than that, but his legs are bent.
