| Post subject: | Isengard Trolls |
Hey all, I'm wondering about the base size of the Isengard Troll. Originally, the metal one looked much more like a Cave Troll which would insinuate a 40mm base. More recently, the plastic one comes with a 60mm base and the Troll is Mordor Troll-sized. I'm thinking of converting a plastic Cave Troll into an Isengard Troll, but I'm unsure the base sizes would match. |

Isengard trolls and mordor trolls utilize the larger "monster" base size rather than the cavalry base size that cave trolls are on. |

The plastic cave troll is too small to convert IMO. it would look odd. |

Thinking about it, why should all trolls in any given force be exactly the same size? Surely there would be a bit of variety? I would say go ahead and make the conversion but I would suggest using spare parts from the plastic troll kit to 'Isengard' it and also put it on the 60mm base. I like to see a bit of variety in armies. |

What size was the base of the metal version? I've tried looking online and can't find any good reference pictures. If someone could post a picture comparing it to a Cave Troll and/or metal Mordor Troll, that would be much appreciated. |

I'm 80% sure it's 60mm. |

I am 100% sure the base size is 60mm. I have two metal ones, and three converted from the plastic mordor kit. All 5 have the same base size. |
