Searching for a small frog or toad
« on: March 28, 2008, 01:46:06 AM »
Hi,

i search for a very small frog or toad figure. it should be so small that it looks like a big, fat toad to a 25-28 mm fig.
(a bit like the bretionian snail-bitz, if anyone knows them).

thank you

GW did a Talisman series a while back and they had a toad fig.  I had it, but it's back in NYC and not sure where.  Check on ebay or maybe call GW and see if they'll you can still order old metal.

Yes, there are like 4 or 5 familiar packs from Reaper (as coil provided a link).  I know one of them has a frog/toad in it.

 I have an old GW one.It might be bigger than you need though.It is stretched out as if walking.Not sure what set it came in though.I thought it might of come in the D&D box set.It has been painted but would be very easy to re-do.

I think GW had one as a familiar for a Brettonian figure (special character) Morgan something. It could be still available from their bits store.

I got a really good tiny little frog included with one of those Dinosaur model/diorama kits....along with some really neat saurians I was going to use and a few terrain bits.
I think it was the Triceratops model....I see these in all the hobby stores.

Good one.  I've been looking at their stuff for parts.  I'm not into Blood Bowl, but they seem like a good resource.  They sent my order out quick, too.
