Just what the title says…
Foo Dogs, Komainu, sometimes named temple guardians

Scale not specific, part of the terrain…but should not overpower my 28mm scale temple

I have only found a pair from Fenris
Which are great, but I am just not into the worn look

Any help appreciated

You can often find such guardian figures in Chinese ethnic supermarkets. If there is a 'Chinatown' in your vicinity you may find a shop that specialises in traditional religious gear or a shop with calligraphy supplies – the guardian figures are popular carvings on soap stone seal blocks – free integrated base :-).

Check the Dollar Stores. I've often found them there.
