17. Grendel
Grendel, manufacturer of "Leviathan" and "Grendel fantasy", makes many
large scale resin models of both monsters and decors, as well as metal
miniatures or combinations of both. The range includes a cracking 160mm
Norse giant in the 25mm scale (F0016). The model can be used with or without
his shield and comes with bare head and optional helmet.

18. Verlinden Productions
Manufacturer of large scale
historical and fantasy kits which can serve as giants for our purposes.
The models shown are from the "Historical Series" and are in the 120mm
scale. If you're feeling more bold in your miniature choice you could also
check out this Valkyrie
from the "Fantasy Series", which is also in 120mm.

They also make a 150mm skeletal viking, which you can see here on page 2 of All Things Bony
19. Andrea Miniatures
Another manufacturer of miniatures in
different scales (30mm, 54mm, 80mm, etc...), but naturally the 30mm ones
caught our attention. They sell a range called "3D Miniatures", which
includes a line of "Camelot" miniatures. There's a handful of vikings to
be found and I especially like the drunk couple and the viking with his
captive. Despite the stated 30mm scale, many miniatures from the range are
closer to 25mm.

20. Gladiator Games
This company which only recently started
producing 25mm miniatures, has a range of Dark Age warriors, which
includes Vikings and Anglo Danes. They claim to be "fully compatible with
Foundry and Gripping Beast". The paintjobs on the site make it a bit
difficult to accurately judge the sculpting level.

21. Whitecross Games
Another UK-based manufacturer of
historical miniatures at decent prices. The range has bondi and huscarls
with spears, axes or bows, a command group and some berserkers.

"Some of their earlier ranges are less detailed, but Barry is getting better. The first of these were on view at Swindon Siege last year. Even provided a limited edition figure for the show. These aren't to Foundry standards, but fully as good as Old Glory. A bit tall: some of the command figures are stretching to 30mm." - aecurtis
22. Fenryll Miniatures
French Manufacturer of resin Fantasy
miniatures. The resin allows for a greater level of detail, but also makes
the weight of your miniatures disturbingly light. They have a Valkyrie and
a set of three Northmen.
23. Dolmen
This company produces a range of very nice resin
statues that can be painted up to use as giants. One of those is a very
impressive 21 cm Viking (ref. AM-VI14, weight 1100g).

24.Eureka Miniatures
Australian minis from down under. this company has an ever expanding range,
growing in all directions, including some Norse miniatures called "Isleman".
The unarmoured ones are nothing special, but the ones in mail are servicable.

Finally, do remember that Saxons work well as ersatz vikings!
Don't forget to take a look at the Norse Dwarf showcase.
As Norse and bears seem to go well together, you should also take a look at Colonel M.'s Bear Showcase
