Besides the fact that is has curves, it matches feminine Viking attire very well, IMO.

Got my highlander and the mechanics (my job), but let alone two minotaurs in the box (not fantasy fan, although I got an elf from previous series).
My mechanics is still in the bag, my oldest mib is my gladiator, but I still wonder if I will ever open it or trade it away for anything else.

I went a bit mad for the Minotaur figures. They were easy to Identify by a bit of bag feeling and know I have four of the brutes. I individualized them by changing the horns, swapping their horns to other colours and the more standard horns/teeth pieces. I have a set of gold pearl "teeth" which made a good chief Minotaur Figure for my Minotaur faction, and made a bull horn standard using some Ninjago Fang daggers as horns.
The other figs I managed to get hold of were two Romans, two Highlanders ( celts?) and the sleeping guy who's hairpiece looks amazing on one of the the highlander/celt figures. I also got the butcher as the t-bone steak and meatcleaver were ideal for a Warrior Feast/ meadhall/ kitchen MOC I wanted to create. (chicken drumsticks, gold pearl goblets, Fish and bones etc...) I also ended up with three zookeeper figures from one of the earlier series(?) so now have three bananas to use but not sure if they look right on a fantasy medieval banqueting table?

^^You could always put the bananas on a trading vessel coming from a warmer land, along with monkeys and ostriches for trade. Just an idea :)

That is an excellent idea. I Havn't any ostriches at present but may now purchase a few. (My Troll Faction will be licking their lips at the size of those drumsticks!) Just thinking what other lego accessories/items like that which I have that could be put to such use.
