This has to be the strangest conversion I have ever seen. The figure was done by a man who had a massive diorama in his basement. He various battle scenes. Not content with the way the figures look, he did various conversions some interesting and others well best to say different.
Sadly the man died and his collection was sold off, I got various figures including the figure above. The figure is so odd, I decided to keep him.
Ja fur shure you betcha!!
Definitely different !
Both Russian and Scandinavians (including Finnish) used reindeer, but in must case to pull sled, not to ride, these animals antlers are so large that could hurt you when riding. They also use them to carry heavy loads. Now the problem is in this figure the collector used a (moose=or Eurasian elk)!!/.A complete different animal larger and stronger very difficult and more aggressive than reindeer towards humans.
That definitely looks more like a Moose than a Reindeer. Interestingly enough, on the history channel, it said that Reindeer in Northern Russia are fond of this wild mushroom that causes them to hallucinate, and they bound around like they are flying, no joke, some scholars actually believe, thats where the myth of Santa’s flying Reindeer came from.
Believe it or not.

Laurie said the maker should put a little squirrel on his back.
Sounds like these reindeer got a monkey on their back. Stinkin’ addicts!
yes ,also russian like sup with same mushroom too..no joke either!!!
I will say still the figure team look very rare and interesting idea too!!good odd nice piece!!
For real? The Russians partake of the ‘Alice mushroom’ , too? I bet they’re too drunk to notice much difference, though.
I was also thinking that Paul, The Rocky and Bullwinkle Brigade. Perhaps they could protect the flying Reindeer herds. Lol.
