New Set Announcement: Trolls!

One of the weapons should be convertible to magic staff with bonus gear, skulls from skeletons etc.

One of the heads with helmets should be compatible with mask from The Giant Spiders for an option for magic caster/mind controlled trolls.

Add pair of horns to make Oni from them or glue them to the belt, staff or as trophy

Add one head with stone pattern on it, or stone/gem piece glue able on heads, other body parts, bases, as treasure or staff part, with correct painting it creates lava/ice/stone guys.

RPG support packing would be nice as army amount is not necessary for encounters, for example as mixed package with goblins, spiders and trolls spruces.

@Mike Hart They looks slightly like LoTR movie trolls and that fits aesthetically with goblins.

Zach I guess you didn’t read above? LOL

Great looking concept. This set may be improved with:
1) More dynamic pose than standing straight. Even a ready stance would lend a sense of movement and imminent action.
2) variety in the belt/loincloth area as it looks like there are different legs.

I agree about the helmet, Andrew- a shallet or a barrel helm would be great. Also, these are more like ogres rather than trolls. That’s not a complaint. Traditional trolls are my cup of tea.

Sci Fi options!!

Would it be possible to have some sort of giant crossbow, and a two handed weapon for these guys too?

I second the opinion of Sci-Fi weapon options, or at least hands for easy converting.
If included it would be nice to have enough in the box to equip all the trolls, was a bit disappointing to see the lizardmen box not have enough AKs to equip all of them.

You can add my voice to chorus for sci-fi options here. You could outfit these big guys with support weapons that other Death Fields forces have to set up on a tripod. I’d also like to see some sci-fi melee weapons, such as a ‘power axe’ or some such, scaled up to accommodate these trolls. An option for a simple spear would also be nice (sci-fi or fantasy), as well as shall we say ‘better manufactured weapons’, as though they’d been issued to them or culled from previous opponents.

Please please some sci-fi / post apocalyptic options! These look very good so far. Exciting upcoming release.

I just caught a glimpse of one of the in-progress poses in the Friday Email update – looks fantastic! This set is gonna be HUUUUUGE! :)

I like JH’s suggestion of including a helmet option or two that matches what the goblins are wearing – it would be a nice touch for consistent army-building.
