Wood Elf Eternal Guard make fine High Elf Spearmen, or even Sea Guard if you have some spare bows/quivers you're able to attach to them. The Eternal Guard kit is still available. There aren't any current GW elven archer models aside from the Sisters of Avelorn, which you could proxy with, though they'd be an expensive core unit. Another option would be to check out Last Sword Miniatures - they've got a range of High Elves: lastsword.com/shop/?swoof=1&product_cat=elven-lords - some others on this forum have used them.

Lovely models but there are serious compromises on scale if you use them alongside WFB models:

Oh, they're a bit short, hehe. Maybe you'd have to buy the whole lotr elf range lol Or put on raised surface?

Would probably be possible to put them in their own units, at least the Archers, would be less noticeable that way. Though as said above, I will probably go through ebay, and miniswap looking for them, seems like the best bet.

Ok, so minor update, I got her ol squidface because she expressed interest in a United Elf Army at some point, mostly the Wych cult elves (Was planning to have her proxy my Dark Eldar Wyches until she could get some). I also got her a... Noble I think, it was a hand me down sprue from a guy in my Flames of War group, so neither of us really know what it is, looks like a noble though.

Update (2) I found her a Tiranoc Chariot, not a great unit, but it was free, so eh, can't complain. On top of the Noble I got for her, I also got her the old model of the Everqueen, as she was like 'oooh, she looks cool!' as soon as she saw the Everqueen in the army book.
She is now interested in some Wych Elves (We are sharing a Khane End Times Book) and a Dark Elf Mage purely because they look cool.
