Substitute figures for War bear and the Yeti.

Here's my substitute figures for War bear and the Yeti. I had to do some work on the War bear.

The Yeti is 4 cm tall and the War bear is 4.5 cm tall. Not a bad size for HQ gaming. Figures comes from Black Tree Design.

Honestly, I don't like them, sorry.
It's hard to find good figures for the frozen horror pak...

For the Yeti, I have thinking about those from Games Workshop :

I agree, good looking figures are hard to find. But i think that figures today are to much detailed, they dont fit into HQ world.
HQ came out in 1989, and that makes it more difficult to find suitable figures.
But if anybody have other suggestions, im interrested.

Maybe you could post a yeti pic - cause I didn't find anything on the website.

The taer is awesome !!!!!
The Warhammer figures are much detailed than HEROQUEST's figures... I'm agree with you.. But I have bought a lot of them and I find that they give more variety to the game. And also, they fit perfectly... Just the base that aren't good, so I have remake them in fimo pasta.

Both of those links go to the same unrelated page.

When you go to one of those pages, type Yeti or werebear in the search field located on the upper left side. The urls are all the same. Everything on the website is probably hidden inside frames.
