Any hints on where to get cool halfling miniatures for Chef, fans and the like?

There was a unit of Halflings (though the name escapes me - Crumps or something like that) for the Dogs of War mercenary army in Warhammer Fantasy. Perhaps you should try looking up some of their models. I also think there was a Halfling cookpot type catapult out once too...but that might just be my hallucinations...

Btw, do the lotr-gw-minis have the size of a blood bowl halfling?

They are a little smaller.

Also, they are not 'heroic' scale. Which means that their hands/heads are going to be more in proportion with their bodies than the GW stuff is. they'd look VERY out of place on a BB team with other halfling minis...

i know they are generally smaller and was meaning to use humans as bloodbowl halflings. but the proportion issue is of course a severe one. thanks!

Hey, yes. That would be an option. Just gotta check how to bid internationally (have german ebay account) and what the shipping would be (and what my wife is willing to grant me bidding...). I will contact you on ebay.
