The recent thread about Ogryn intelligence has reminded me that I don't have any proper Ogryns in my IG troupe.

And especially with the Hodor reference, I feel like my Ogryns need to be extra special, and was hoping my fellow dakkanauts could assist me in this endeavor.

What other Ogryn ideas could be had? What other characters from memorable or popular franchises, books, TV, film, etc. could be made into an Ogryn?

Hodor.

I like the special Ogres from the fantasy range. The ninja, the pirate, I think there's a chef or something.

Andre the giant comes to mind. Chunk from the Goonies. Master and specifically Blaster from Mad Max: Beyond Thunderdome

I converted whfb ogres into IG Ogryns, for weapons I used big shootas from Ork Vehicles and Deff Dread, the leader I gave two regular ork shootas as pistols the ones with the drum magazine, IG canteens, ammo pouches, and scraped off the beards, etc.

If you wanted some really characterful ogryns, Scibor does some great sculpts.
