So the GW's Great Unclean One to me looks alot like the Orc River Trolls over by fantasy. And they size up the same as well.
Great Unclean One -

Also the GW one is about 96 while 3 river trolls is only 74. The forgeworld one looks hand down better than both of them but your better off selling ur kidney for something else.
Personally I think the trolls are way better cuz cheaper and with some conversions might even look better, but anyway, ur thoughts?

Actually I'd say the Rivertrolls look much better and more befitting as a GUO. The GUO model looks like a huge case of trying too hard. The River trolls already look the part to me though appear to be on the short side. A simple bit of work could make the heights match if there was any difference.

I'm expecting an Imperial Knights supplement dedicated to GW's loyalist apologetics. Codex: White Knights "In the grim dark future, everything is fine."

"The argument is that we have to do this or we will, bit by bit,
lose everything that we hold dear, everything that keeps the business going. Our crops will wither, our children will die piteous
deaths and the sun will be swept from the sky."
