This was the first idea that came to mind when this challenge was announced, and I'm pretty easily amused so it stuck with me. Took a few tries, and a couple of different action figures, but I wanted the "Troll" to come across as a big, scary, mean creature, not a cute little doll with funky hair.
Wow, fifth place! Thank you all for the comments and the votes. I'm actually kind of surprised that there was not a single "1" vote on this one. :)
Oh, the numbers are just wooden numbers bought from the craft store and painted blue. The << and >> are the same style wood Greek letter Delta with one side of the triangle cut off. I glued the ends of toothpicks on the number 1 and the arrows so they could stick through the paper into a foam board underneath.

Really, really creative and extremely well done! I'm quite surprised this didn't ribbon - it deserved to, especially here! Congrats on the fifth and a nifty little star doodad thingie on your profile page just the same.
Normally I would not score a photograph of an plastic figure high but in this case you pulled it off. Not only did you do a fantastic job photographing and setting up the picture; it also tells the story with or without a title. Nice idea and you nailed it. Great job! High Marks!
I gave this an extra point because you put some thought and effort into this rather than just a "quick and dirty lets play on the 'troll' theme" shot that would have been all too easy
