The following 7 minis have been discovered in boxed sets of Talisman figures on many occasions, mainly in the US, and are generally accepted as alternate figures.
It is not known whether this was done knowingly by Games Workshop because of problems with moulds or shortages of figures etc, or whether the Mail Order Trolls had simply become somewhat confused.
Talking of Trolls… I’ve finally added a couple of “questionable” Alternate Trolls to the mix, but there is a caveat. Although they have been reportedly seen in packages of miniatures, it hasn’t been confirmed whether these appeared regularly enough to be considered true alternate figures.
The main problem is the size of these figures, as they were sculpted for 40mm bases. There is also a FOURTH Troll that has been touted as an alternate, the C20 Marsh Troll, but as it has not been seen “in situ”, I have left it off… for now!
