      I’ll admit I read that as Middle-Earth dialect on first glance.

        There are dozens of us!

        Det er dusiner av oss! (Although that sounds a bit… off)

            “Det finnes dusinvis av oss” would perhaps be a better translation, but it’s not really an expression commonly used in Norway, so it still feels a bit awkward to say.
