Halfling teams?
I'd like to ask for some various manufacturers of Halfling teams.
I'm going to need them for a tournament later this year, and I'd like to find that "perfect" team of the little guys.
I'm looking for Flings that actually look like they're serious about playing BB. Armor/pads are pretty good, but god, the chicken legs and pots on heads drive me insane.
Flings are NOT JOKES!
I've looked at:
Star Players Miniatures
Black Scorpion
the GW box (awful)
Willy (the Ultimate Halfings > Imperial, but I'm not really sold, as they still look "gimmicky")
Rolljordan - I can't see an unpainted picture of the team anywhere, and the trees are just terrible imo
Any other suggestions to look at? I'd really appreciate your input, and thank you.

Iron Golem. They're pretty small, but don't look like rejects from a kitchen supply store

I also recommend the Iron Golem buzzed bumblebees. The flings look like they mean business and the trees are great.

I have an impact miniatures team. I like the trees. The flings are small compared to the GW standard.

Winzor Chog Big Guys, Oak the Treeman particularly IMO, are distinctive but also match well with GW range

the NAF have handy mini supplier list, though not fully up to date

Goblin Guild don't do Halfling team, but have nice Halfling ref and wizard!

Also if you follow some BB minis accounts on social media, hit a few likes, reshares or whatever, that stuff will show up in your feeds. Nerd Twitter is much nicer that the neverending psuedo politics, and (for me) nerd Instagram is more interesting than all the selfies and pictures of people's meals

It's a sign of a great coach, if you can win anyway with a 'joke' team ;)
