Don't care for the new look at all. I like the 3e one the best of those pictured, but don't mind the gangly look of the 2e one, just needed the nose to curve down.

Eye dun no why youse guys think im not relly a person im jimgang from canada but im moving to cali as soon as i get a master card

So, you stand at your grave, Has your soul yet been taken away?
So you can't read what's engraved, Is this Heaven or merely Decay?
Was there a light, enchantingly bright, A Question, just how did it end?
Just let me sift through your calm remains, And tear you away from your skin.
-Sumerias Fain.

The new Trolls are impressive, but they're not D&D trolls. I prefer D&D trolls to be thin & rubbery with long noses, and it seems like the new ones are using steroids.

Actually, I prefer Warhammer trolls to D&D ones, geneally speaking.

Never really liked the 3e one. The one in the 2nd pic is cool too.

They look too froggy for my tastes. I like the armored one, but he seems to me as more a goblin than a troll.

The new troll look RAWKS!!! I really wish the Feral Troll was Uc. Hopefully, we will get a plain Uc 4e troll soon. And yes, my gang of 3.0 trolls are still useful.

I'm digging the new concept for the troll. Although I wil always have a certain fondness for the old-school 1st/2nd ed. trolls they just never looked as tough as I thought they should. The 3rd ed. troll... well I would just as soon forget about it.

I was impressed with the new Troll when I saw the life-sized version at GenCon. I would not want to run into that thing if I were a low level adventurer.

The New Ones looks pretty good to me.  My mini favorite so far has been the mountain troll.

Pathetic Earthlings. Hurling your bodies out into the void - without the slightest inkling of who or what is out here. If you had known anything about the true nature of the universe - anything at all - you would have hidden from it in terror.
