Help: suggest a mini

[Trevor]

OK, I need a GW mini (its gonna be for GD), that is swinging a sword (or something I can cut off and replace with a sword), in a dynamic pose, or pose that I can easily convert to be more dynamic. The important bit is that they really look like they are swinging the weapon.
Finally I would prefer something that wasn\'t human.

Any suggestions?

3 Suggestions...

As an Eldar player, I\'d recommend the Avatar- he\'s fairly dynamic, or the Jain Zar Phoenix Lord- you could easily replace the weapon in her upraised hand with a sword. Or even Lelith from the Dark Eldar, I think she\'s pretty popular a figure because she is so dymanic.

Of course, maybe these are too human-ish for whatever you have in mind. How un-human a figure were you looking for?

I wasn\'t really thinking about 40k, the jain Zar certainly has potential (the avatar is out because one of my other entries is a large 40K).

I say not human simply because I\'m crap at human skin tones...

Keep \'em coming

But they\'re rather chopping than swinging.

Thanks for the suggestions, but I really need more swing, preferably at the end of the swing, not the beginning...

Dont they have those little goblins out swinging the big ball and chain with spikes on it? i forget what its called... and it isnt exactly intimidating, but i guess its a thought... (hes completely horzontal with the flail thing touching the base)

Go for one of the plastic multi-pose kits and then convert convert convert! Its like baptismal fonts in populas2! Now theres a blast from the past!

Now theres a game I loved! And the original (I even had the expansion that let you play in lego land )

I might even have the second one around somewhere still, but I think it may run a tad too fast to play. I tried to play powermonger a few years ago, nd it was just silly!

BTW, just to keep it on track, I don\'t have a clue about a figure (sorry)
