It did take a couple minutes to get him to sit right...I like him...but I thought for some reason he would be bigger..just felt it...he didn't blow me away like MOS. ...price too a factor and hurt a bit...I do love the low ES. ..anyway I will touch up the base,weather up the armor a bit,and lighten his dark charcoal color a touch...maybe next week if I can get him in my schedule or it will be in January...I love his helmet

Happy to report I finally received my refund for this piece. Those still waiting are hopefully in the same boat as me now or will be shortly.

Final thoughts on the War Troll are it's nice, just not 1k nice. At least not in my eyes. Didn't have the presence/impact of cheaper pieces like The Mouth of Sauron on Steed for example. Ultimately my biggest issue outside of the foot not fitting in the base properly was the pose. Just didn't work for me in person like I had hoped. Paint app could've used some improvement but wasn't as big a factor as it was with others. Cave Troll is still the definitive Troll in the Weta line IMO.
