Plus those Heroclix figs that Chairface listed (which I will get round to converting someday...).

They are roughly the same size as my GW black orcs, slightly taller but slightly thinner (not really noticeable).

I also have them and they look fantastic for ulfwereners...

Even the size is perfect.

On a side note: all people complaining that Racham's figurines are to big: they're WRONG...

However my brother who plays Norse in our league is doing much much better this season with the changes to the team and i've really started to like the changes myself. He had a pretty bad streak of luck with his LRB4 norse team suffering 52 casualties in 15 games with a TD rate of 10:28. This season he is undefeated so far, despite not liking the changes to the team at first. With him becoming better as a coach and getting used to the new version of the team he's really tearing our league a part. (which i'm really glad to see.) First game of the season he killed 2 of my Black Orcs and my Troll.

As for miniatures right now we're using rackham kelt spasm warriors for the Ulfwereners.

snipped the weapons off the animal forms and they seem to work pretty well for right now.
I actually have that first spasm warrior in my bitzbox. I would love to see how he turned out. Can you post a pic?

For right now I only have the versions of the second link I posted. I still need to go and pick up the miniature from the first link. I should be getting it in a few weeks, I can post a picture of the second one however when I get done with it. I really like how the first one looks though so hopefully I can get my hands on one soon and begin converting it.

The two wolfguys on the left are quite nice, Iceman.

However, under the influence of antipixi (my friendly neighbourhood miniatures pusher :wink: ), I've just got two Boris models (the FF one, and the berserker one in basically the same pose) which I'm going to green stuff some wild man hairiness onto. If I ever get round to it, and the results are better than my usual modelling attempts, I might even inflict the results on you guys at some point over the summer :o

The Boris models are larger than a 'standard' human (phil's phigs valkyries for my team) and smaller than Ewan's snowtroll so perfect for ST4.

My thoughts excactly. Now I just have to purseued a friend to buy the ones on the rights from me. Im waiting the delivery from WWP with interest to see how the weres look like next to my plastic marauders. If the size difference is the same as with GW dwarves vs. WWP dwarves then they are a bit larger, which works just fine and hopefully the yeti I also ordered from WWP is even bigger.

The pants on those weres remind me of the old Marvel commics an the Incrediple Hulk. Would a green were look a bit too weird? But he is from the Chaos Wastes or quite near...

Sorry, to dig up an old thread, but I thought people might be interested in these from Mage Knight by WizKids:

http://www.wizkidsgames.com/mageknight/ ... nitid=7183
http://www.wizkidsgames.com/mageknight/ ... nitid=7185

These are what I'm using. The top of their mane is the same height as the top of the Black Orc's fist, so they're slightly big.

Personally, I love the changes to the Norse team (and Dark Elves). They needed something to make them unique from the other Human (or Elf) teams. Turning them into true running teams was a great move. I also have wanted the Norse to have a Werewolf for a while. According to the Warhammer Fantasy history, Norsca is really the only place where Werewolves can fit in. The Norse even field Werewolves as a specialized type of soldier when they go into battle.
