A guy in my club uses these as part of his "spartan" (as in 300, not HALO) themed High Elf army.
They are a bit hard to get (due to Crocodile games' themselves), but good looking. I've got three other friends who play wargods themselves (Aegyptus and Olympus).

I'm OVER 50 (and so far over everyone's BS, too).
Old enough to know better, young enough to not give a ****.
That is not dead which can eternal lie ...
... and yet, with strange aeons, even death may die.
