And now...something completely different.
Some time ago i bought the dark alliance sets with in one set 2 trolls and in another set the catapult thingys and some orcs. Now i was quite exited when they arrived but after opening the the box with the trolls it was a bit of a dissapointment.

As you can see there was a bit of flash but what was realy dissapointing was that the figures have an enormous mould seem (?) wich is impossible to cut away. Sauron probibly had a weekend hangover when he made these on mondaymorning

also the catapults were a bit suffering from some flash

Furthermore the plastic is realy horible to glue. So pinning and lots of superglue are required

But i thought ...well....they are trolls...and they are ugly....so i cut away what was possible and decided to paint them anyway.
So here are my evil ugly twins Snip and Snap:

here you can clearly see the mould line running al the way down. In the end it doesnt realy bother me but it still is a shame.

Ps.its diffucult to see but there are some orcs on the catapult. Shuld have painted them a bit brighter i think but well...it is how it is.
