06-25-07, 06:17 PM Hey all,

I'm trying to find a nice miniature for a few warforged!?

I am DM'ing a game with a lot of warforged, so I want to have ... say 10 warforged miniatures to enhance the game experience. I tried looking at a lot of brands for miniatures, but couldn't find any really to my taste.

Does someone know nice miniatures for warforged?

(hint: search on ebay for warforged)

06-25-07, 07:38 PM Yeah, I think there are 4 warforged in the DDM sets. A wizard, a fighter with a hammer, a captain with some axe-like thing, and I think a scout/rouge. With a few repaints and easy modifications you could easily have 10 semi-unique(sp?) warforged

06-26-07, 07:38 AM There's far more than 4 warforged miniatures. Also, the generic constructs and heavily armored minis can help you fill out the ranks of your 'forged NPCs. www.paizo.com is a great place to pick up singles. Here's what I could find:

Aberrations - Warforged Hero (Very nice mini, btw)
Angelfire - Spiker Champion
Blood War - Hammerer, Kolyarut, Lord of Blades, Maug
Deathknell - Warforged Wizard
Giants of Legend - Bladeling Fighter, Sword of Glory, Warforged Fighter, Warforged Titan
Underdark - Iron Golem, Royal Guard
Unhallowed - Blood Golem of Hextor, Shield Guardian
War Dums - Axe Soldier, Warforged Barbarian, Warforged Bodyguard, Warforged Captain, Warforged Scout
War of the Dragon Queen - Aasimar Fighter, Cadaver Collector

Hope this helps.

06-26-07, 08:29 AM Reaper also has a 4 pack of soldiers in I think their Champion line that make for good Warforged.

As for the DDMs, except for the WF Wizard, I find that their WF mini sculpts pretty much suck, across the board. They look like iron plated gorillas more than they do WF.

Also, don't be afraid to buy some greenstuff and get into, if not modelling your own minis from scratch, then modifying existing ones.

I've been waiting on Reaper to do a knock-off Warforged since Eberron came out.

I can *FINALLY* make some decent WF minis now!

06-26-07, 08:29 PM Ironically, that looks more like an armoured gorilla than a warforged. ;) It's good that Reaper's caught up, though.

06-26-07, 10:02 PM Ironically, that looks more like an armoured gorilla than a warforged. ;) It's good that Reaper's caught up, though.I'm not overly fond of the body sculpt, but the head is dead on. I can file off some of the pointy bits along the lower ribcage area, file down the codpiece plate, etc, and make it look much more like a WF. Use some greenstuff to give wood fiber bundles, that sort of thing.

06-26-07, 10:11 PM I just took a peek at a few of the recent Reaper miniatures, and I'd have to say that most of the heavily armoured sorts would work just fine as Warforged given a bit of paint and very minor sculpting.

WF Wizard was one of the key selling point images for the Eberron setting in the search, if memory serves.

06-29-07, 04:11 PM Some of the Mage Knight golems make reasonable warforged figures, although most work best as warforged prototypes (ala Warforged Titan, Warforged Charger). They are pretty cheap on eBay, for the most part. Just pop them off tehir bases and remount them.

Submersible Golem (http://www.wizkidsgames.com/images/figures/Rotating/MKNX/MKNX_011.jpg)

Scouting Automaton (http://www.wizkidsgames.com/images/figures/Rotating/MKSI/MKSI_001.gif)

This (http://www.wizkidsgames.com/images/figures/Rotating/MKDR/MKDR_089.jpg) would make a good warforged raptor (from Fow).
