I've been buying a lot of Mierce models recently, I love their giant fantasy models, and as a long time player some of the models are obvious in which Fantasy army to put them, but these three baffle me:
Kraan on Bear:
I'm torn between Kislev and Warriors of Chaos, he looks chaosy, but I feel like he could be pretty awesome spearheading a Kislev army
Baleful Vasilisk:

I'm again torn between Chaos and another faction, this time Lizardmen
Colossus:
This is the worst offender, I don't know what army would have a Colossus, I'm thinking possibly it could be a Tilean Mercenary creation in an Empire Army, but really dunno
Any ideas? I'll definitely buy more from them in the future, so I'll probably have this problem again lol

Colossus could fit into a Tomb Kings army quite easily if you did something about his horsehair plume.

So many games, so little time.
So many models, even less time.
Screw it, Netflix and chill. |

I so would have used the colossus as my Titan for TK, if the rules were decent. I use the Kthones bros are various things in my TK army. Most of them as Tomb Scorpions, and Orophius (sp) as Necrosphinx. All my constructs are reptilian themed.
I think about using the basilisk as a warsphinx base, but I think it's a bit too big to fit on to a 100X50. TBH unpainted it looks pretty derpy too.

The first guy is WoC on a bloodcrusher.
The colossus is a bone giant or heirotitan from TK.

Without the glowy eyes, the man on the bear could easily be one a Kislevite of ill repute. A proper tyrant. Painting the armour golden would even more so make him more human than chaos, even with the evil spikes.

People have done an Undead Greek army using the Tomb King book. that Colossus is just begging to be used as such.

Thanks everyone, I'll take the advice and stick the Colossus with my Tomb Kings
I'll probably leave the Vasilisk with Lizardmen since I'm no great shake at converting so I wouldn't be able to make him a good Sphinx counts as (plus I measured it, he needs a 150x150mm base to fit on properly, which is rather large, so I'll play it as a counts as of one of the models coming out for them
And as for the Bear, probably go with Purifier's suggestion of a Kislevite of poor repute, kinda goes with my Kislev's rather run down and battered style

Vasilisk just needs that sling shot on it's head to be strung. Then it's a hell cannon.
