Barbarian Mini?

[Jon Potter]

I'm looking for a miniature that I found about a year ago and now can't.

It's a barbarian-type (which is easy enough to find) but it's comically out-of-proportion - meaning that he has a tiny little head and enormous muscles.

Anyone seen this and know where I can find it?

I think this is what you want Jon:

Thrud the Barbarian

In 1988 Ral Partha produced the 'Barbarian Pinhead'. I checked Iron Wind Metals which produces the old Ral Partha mini's, but I didn't see it. You could always e-mail them.

I own it. I attached a photo below to confirm.
(For those that have looked at my mini thread. This was my skill level 20 years ago )



The Barbarian Pinhead:


I hope that helps.
Game ON!

Sorry, HM, but nyrfherdr got the one I was thinking of.

Sort of irritating that it's so far out-of-date. I found a couple of spots on the net offering it for sale, but they're all overseas. International shipping is quite a hit to take for a single mini. Same goes for both Thrud and the even cooler Boris minis at the Heresy site. I hate to pay double the cost of the mini iteslf. Maybe I'm just a cheap tightwad.

If I could only remember where it was that I saw the pinhead last year...

Mini Name and tagline

You want
"Ziod, the Barbarian Pinhead"
"He's big, he's bad, he's not terribly bright, he's Ziod!".
Check Ebay, is my only advice.
He's out of production, and I don't think he was ever very popular.
But a search on Ziod should turn something up.
Best of luck.
