At least now we know where the other one went to [:p] Then again I always pictured Hill Giants a little on the mentally challenged list. Running barefoot, dressing in hides/furs etc. | | You see! There ARE others out there just like me. What? Why are laughing? | |

| | haha it'd be neat to know if this was intentional. Like even the HG Chieftain, is still too dumb to remember to put on *both* shoes. Maybe Shoe or someone can confirm it, but I'm sure they have better things to do heh. | | Champion of a Knight of Takhisis/Knight of Neraka | |

I can't imagine that something fundamental to the sculpt would be a mistake. I assume it's akin to the Archfiends Hill Giant's pig.
