The bulk of the miniatures I use for my gaming are purchased unpainted plastic minis from WizKids and Reaper Miniatures. Both companies have a multitude of brands they support and Reaper even produces metal miniatures although that seems to be phasing out. Wizkids unpainted plastic miniature lines including:
Nolzur's Marvelous Miniatures
Pathfinder Deep Cuts
Critical Role
WizKids Deep Cuts
Of the WizKids brands, I find myself buying minis from the above four brands. These minis are all 28mm heroic scale and they are comparable in size across the lines. The Nolzur's are the official Dungeons and Dragons unpainted miniatures whereas Pathfinder Deep Cuts represents Paizo's Pathfinder RPG. The Critical Role minis are inspired by Matt Mercer's Critical Role campaign and WizKids Deep Cuts tends to be a catchall line consisting of more generic fantasy miniatures.
The Male Viking Guard is a nice figure in the WizKids Deep Cuts line. It was released in the Vikings (90175) box set along with other Viking-themed miniatures and scatter terrain. The figure is in a static position with his hands resting on a large axe and has a large shield strapped to his back. Because the figure is standing upright, I am going to use it as my base figure when comparing sizes with other miniatures.
