The Troll is one of those classic D&D monsters that many players will remember as their first encounter with something that could heal and regenerate damage, which could ultimately be incredibly frustrating. When I first started playing D&D and none of us were very meta or rules-savvy I remember our group defeating a Troll and then carrying on only to get ambushed from behind by the Troll we thought we had killed while fighting other monsters.
This particular Troll is the WizKids model for the D&D unpainted miniature line. I choose it because the look of it is a great throwback to the original Troll artwork. Having said that Trolls are one of those miniature where I feel like we're spoiled for good choices. Games Workshop's current Trolls for Warhammer as well as Lord Of The Rings are all great models.

This figure has always been the imagining of a Troll for me!
