Who makes bears for 28mm? I got thinking on this whole "Polish bear war hero…", and was gunna whip up a few… Then Maybe they would be armed with weapons. The whole "Right to Bear Arms" gag would be a hoot to see on a table!  Thanks!  |

Reaper has some. If you are going to use them for mounts they have a couple with saddles for their dwarven cavalry. I believe Foundry makes one as well. |

Without arms the Grizzly Bears from Foundry are very impressive. I have them but not painted now. But those are huge the standing one is more then 5 centimeters. Werner G. Elb aka Samurai Elb |

Reaper's Dire Bear (2 figures) for the Warlord line have a mythical quality without looking silly. |

Doesn't Copplestone have a great bear? Or is that Pulp Figs? |

I must say I'm thrilled that my jest about ammo bear figures in service of showing everyone a link to the Voytek story is going to bear fruit! A great list of potential conversion bears (as you can see, I've given it some thought myself) is here:
link Also, Megaminis has a "Papa bear" that is not quite so large and, as it were, attack-y as some of the suggestions so far: auction -- he looks like he might be lugging an ammo crate. |

How 'bout these bears link Maybe not what you were thinking of But they are awfully cute |

The D&D Miniatures line has produced several bears, dire and otherwise. Some of them were commons, and likely cheaply available online. |
