A Scandinavian family living in the remote and snowy beauty of the Norwegian archipelago of
Svalbard is raising eyebrows -
and cracking smiles - after discovering the latest
Mythic Legions wave from the
Four Horsemen Studios, the "
Horror of Einsamall", looks suspiciously like...
well, them. ToyFarce investigated...
"
We were just scrolling through the new figure reveals with our satellite Wi-Fi connection" said
Lars Østergard, a rugged nordic toy collector who may or may not have stepped straight out of a Norse mythology book. "
And suddenly we see these characters: bearded warrior man, blonde warrior woman, big bearded grandpa, majestic husky, fierce little Chihuahua-looking guy... and we all just looked at each other like 'Hold on... that's us!'"
The
family photo, often taken around Christmas in front of their iconic snowy cabin with their two beloved dogs, could practically be a reference sheet for
Four Horsemen Studios. The resemblance is, indeed,
uncanny.
Even more hilarious? One of the figures from the wave, a deluxe creature :
Isbjorn, the polar bear.
"
Yeah, that checks out" laughed
Tilda,
Lars' partner and the blonde armored woman in question. "
We literally have polar bears wandering by our porch from time to time. They're part of the neighborhood..."
The next figure in question,
J'Akull Ironbones, the frost orc with icy blue skin and battle gear, sparked even more laughter in the household: "
Oh, that's clearly our cousin Erik from Trondheim" said
Grandpa Olaf, stroking his impressive white beard. "
He's big, ugly, and more especially always cold, angry, and shirtless. This has to be him!"
The family says they aren't mad, but just a little spooked and a lot amused: "
We're honored, really!" said Lars. "
But if the Four Horsemen Studios would like to tell us where they got a hold of our family photos, or send us a full set of those figures, we wouldn't say no!" he added, jokingly.
At press time, The
Four Horsemen Studios have not commented on the resemblance. That is mainly because
we forgot to ask them. (Sorry!)

Update: the Chihuahua has been reportedly trying on armors to cosplay as himself.
