It's hard to take those smug Borrebies seriously. They're Alpines on steroids.

what about Red? Seriously though, I can't watch Robocop anymore, I keep expecting his character to say "Robocop, you dumbass".

what is the racial makeup of this term? In a few words, Borreby means unreduced brachycephalic Cromagnoid. Sort of a short-headed cousin to the Brunn.

are borreby types Alpines or just a similar development? (since Scandinavia is not really a part of the "Alpish region") For me, most of them look quite faelish.

Yeah, Borreby is the robust ancestral form of the Alpine. The Alpine can pretty much be defined as a reduction of the Borreby.

I can't help but imagine dwarves when I look at Borrebies or Alpines.

Not a coincidence, Mike ; the origins of the various 'fantasy races' are linked to old-fashioned European perceptions of race.
