Ogre #3

OK, it sounded like you were saying there were two different minotaurs that are rare. The right-hand-raised one is pretty rare, but he's also #3, not #2 -- #2 being the left-hand-raised one.

some of those Trees can be a serious pain to find as well.

Yes, from my experience the Tree#2 (?? the one with the evil face and cut nose) was the mini to appear least at ebay.

Hard to say. Trolls 2 and 3, Mino 3 and Tree 2 head are about all I would actually call rare.

Res GR, Lizzy Cheerleader, GD2000 team are also tough to get.

And if you consider the coins minis ... they fall in this category as well.

concerning trees: correct me if I'm wrong, but there seems to be only one legs part, two different arms parts (one with right shoulder pad, one with bird's nest on left shoulder), and three different heads (/w football helmet and chin guard, /w beard and no helmet, /w beard and helmet no chinguard). Is that right? All those excellent catalogue pages only show assembled treemen, I find it hard to distinguish / identify single parts...
And which parts exactly would be considered "rare"?

actually the only rare part of the treemen variants is the beard/helmet/no chin guard head (It's the one with the flat nose).

The rest (arms, body & legs are interchangable and not particularly rare). I've seen tree#3 being sold with different arms.

Like Nark said, the heads are where the rarity is. There are 2 sets of legs, one with 1 mounting peg and another with 2 mounting pegs (Woo Hoo. All my friends will be jelouse when they lay him prone.

), and 3 sets of arms but all the arms are common.

The only reason people have associated one set of arms with a particular treeman is because of the pictures that have been released in "official" Citadel/GW literature, mail order flyers, WD, and whatever else.
