I know we're all reasonably familiar with "Not-" miniatures from our various favourite manufacturers, large and small. I was wondering if anyone knows if there's a miniature out there that has an uncomfortable likeness close to Arthas, the Lich King from World of Warcraft/WCIII?

Looks like WOW took a lot of inspiration from LotR's witch king. Maybe that would be a good starting point?

Someone on this very site with a rather appropriate name asked a similar question nearly 4 years ago- found here.

Did a little googling and digging on Reaper and came up with these guys that someone else used.

Never played WoW so I can't comment on size but I feel like basing it on GW's Sauron fig would be more appropriate or maybe the modern version of Krell?

Also Vinter from PP's Iron Kingdom's line might be worth a look as a base.

Good gravy are Reaper miniatures terrible looking.

"'players must agree how they are going to select their armies, and if any restrictions apply to the number and type of models they can use."

This is an actual rule in the actual rulebook. Quit whining about how you can imagine someone's army touching you in a bad place and play by the actual rules.

When people ask, "What's the point in understanding everything?" they've just disqualified themselves from using questions and should disappear in a puff of paradox. But they don't understand and just continue existing, which are also their only two strategies for life.
