Erion Posted June 1, 2005 Share Posted June 1, 2005 I was perusing Alliance Games Distributors web site today and saw the following: RPR 14205 Hill Giant $24.99 Is the model listed above the very same hill giant shown here? If so, I'm going to have to seriously consider expanding my Reven demo force to something a bit beefier. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reaperbryan Posted June 1, 2005 Share Posted June 1, 2005 Yes, the 14205 model listed in the Alliance catalog listing you stumbled upon is the very same giant you have shown us. And Neek tells me that he wishes to harvest the power of the hulking brute to overthrow that blow-hard Varaug and lead the Reven to true greatness, but unfortunately the Giant (Who goes by "Phil", and has a 2 martini a day habit) can;t hear neek shouting at him form Waaaaaay up there, and so Neeks desires remain unfulfilled.

prophet118 Posted June 1, 2005 Share Posted June 1, 2005 and... what lead you to beleive it was reven? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Qwyksilver Posted June 1, 2005 Share Posted June 1, 2005 Wow. That is only going for $25??? I would have thought it gone for closer to $45. It weighs a ton. It's huge. It's a hold it in two hands so you don't drop it big. Neek will so be Master to the Hill Giant's Blaster. Need to buy another Neek now, and replace one of his short swords with a riding quirt.

Reaperbryan Posted June 1, 2005 Share Posted June 1, 2005 You know - I wondered the same thing when the green first went up - people automatically assumed it was Reven. It is, but I still wondered why people assumed that about it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wildbill Posted June 1, 2005 Share Posted June 1, 2005 I think I may be able to explain why they automatically assume it's Reven. In that OTHER fantasy game, the Orc and Goblin army (aka Reven) had Hill Giants. Thus, when Reaper released the Hill Giant model, it was automatically assumed it would head for the Reven. At least that's my take on it. Wild Bill Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dewen Posted June 1, 2005 Share Posted June 1, 2005 You know - I wondered the same thing when the green first went up - people automatically assumed it was Reven. It is, but I still wondered why people assumed that about it. Maybe its a Merc. NO WAY! Its Reven Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Erion Posted June 1, 2005 Author Share Posted June 1, 2005 Well, I assumed it was Reven because it's SKU number is right in the middle of a bunch of other models that are quite Obviously Reven. The only two new non-reven codes listed were for the Crusaders. While a Crusading hill giant would be cool, this one doesn't look the part.

Sergei Posted June 1, 2005 Share Posted June 1, 2005 . While a Crusading hill giant would be cool, this one doesn't look the part. It would explane why certain models would be effected by "Mercy" "join the Crusaders, umm, sure, just don't hit me with that, ahh, tree" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kelcore Posted June 1, 2005 Share Posted June 1, 2005 Well, I assumed it was Reven because it's SKU number is right in the middle of a bunch of other models that are quite Obviously Reven.

Well, if circumstances and dice-rolls are just right, he could be a Crusader for a game.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ecs05norway Posted June 1, 2005 Share Posted June 1, 2005 Personally, I assumed he was Reven because his arm stuck out so far, like every other Reven model. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wildbill Posted June 1, 2005 Share Posted June 1, 2005 What?!?! Do research and look stuff up? Are you INSANE?!?!?!?!?!?!?!? I just want to know if the hill giant is using a treeman for his club. Yowzah!! Wild Bill Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Castlebuilder Posted June 1, 2005 Share Posted June 1, 2005 Casket Works 18 says the big dummy is going to be part of the Reven faction. Of course that's just until the Crusaders convert him, "Here's a cookie bit fella, now go and kill Varaug for me. Good boy!" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
