Could someone direct me to a photo online of a completed model of the manticore being sold here: auction Thanks.

It's the first one that pops up in a Google image search:

That is a great price for it as well. I like mine, got it when it was first released.

Would it be suitable for a mounted figure, you think?

Not a lot of room around the shoulders to mount a rider.

Would it look weird if they rode behind the wings?

It might look weird, but it also might work.

Shoot, for $15 USD, buy it and give it a try.

If it's a mount for a sorceror, you could always have him kneeling or even standing on the manticore's back. Heck, he's a sorceror, just tell your opponents that he uses magic to stay up there.

Could someone recommend a manticore that looks good and would be better for a rider? Not the Warhammer or Reaper one, I mean.

Would there be room on this guy to fit a rider in front of the wings? Anyone know? Great looking model btw.
