I really want to get into minis (I used to own quite a few lead free pewter figures back in the day, mostly Ral Partha stuff and a few things I found at garage sales. I even found this beautiful little armored goblin-like fellow with a helmet with huge horns in my backyard.), but it seems the rest of my group wouldn't have it.

I guess realistically I wouldn't be able to afford as many picks if I kept up with the miniature line. So I guess I won't be hopping on this "plastic crack" train anytime soon.

Ral Partha how I miss thee. :)

I still have my Seven Sisters minis and Elminster and Goldmoon and Huma and his dragon, and one or two others.

It was strange they made two different Dove minis though. Some day I hope to find the mini I am missing to complete my Seven Sister's minis.

(I don't recall which one I'm missing atm. :))

Ive got

Fzoul
Manshoon
Elminster
Blackstaff
Tam
Dove
Laeral
King Azoun
Mourgm Armtha (the lord of Shadowdale)

The D&D minis are abit lighter to lug around than the old metal ones

I heard it, and of course i am overjoyed. :smirk:

I can't wait to let my CE warbands tear this abomination apart :b:

But anyway, a few month ago, when we got the first info about what an aspect creature is in Dragon Magazine and some people started talking about the possible aspects we would get, i already said that i think an aspect of Bane more likely than an aspect of Cyric.

I mean an Aspect of Cyric would just be a rogue. At least Bane looks monstrous enough to make a nice mini.

I only hope the Aspect of Bane will be a large creature.

"The Aspect of Bane is more like the cover picture from Faiths and Pantheons. He's a large outsider, green skin, partially armored, mace in one hand, spiked gauntlet on the other. His stat card is actually only half full. lvl 14, spd 6, AC 22, HP 120 Melee: +21/+16 15 magic, independent, aura of fear 8, dr 5, melee reach 2"

Sounds awesome

My PCs may find something "interesting" when they run into Fzoul outside Hillsfar

:devil:

Actually Id be more interested in having riping Nightfalls warband apart, after all theres an Aspect of Orcus to be disimbowled :angel:

I am still disappointed that we won't get an aspect of Tiamat. I was really looking forward to this mini.

An aspect of Hextor would surely be a nice mini too, actually i was hoping to see much more than only four aspects (and IMO the aspect of Demogorgon is just ugly.)

I hope there will be more aspect creatures in GoL

Actually Im glad they kept the numbe of Aspects to 4 after all my partys more likely to run into a Bone devil or a Vrock then an Aspect of Asmodeous.

As for the Aspect of Hextor, Im glad they didnt do one he mini would be absolutely useless to me he doesnt resemble another creature I could use him for

Just imagine a large six-armed mini wielding 6 fearsome weapons. He would just look awesome cool (or an aspect of Selvetarm or Garagos)

While he might pass for Gargos I think your stretching it if you think he'll pass for Selvetarm, Selvetarm looks similar to Lolth ie mostly spider

Anyway, for those interested here are two nice pics:
Aspect of Orcus (http://www.wizards.com/default.asp?x=dnd/mi/20040212a)
(and a Vrock, but who cares about some lousy Vrock when compared to Orcus?)
Aspect of Bane (http://www.enworld.org/forums/attachment.php?attachmentid=12806)

It seems that Arch Fiends is one set that I will skip. I think that the only two that I might be interested in are the cleric of Bane and the Moon elf. I'm not one for "iconic" characters. What a waste.

I have had two half painted pewter minis sitting in my 'abandoned hobby box' for the last ... ummm.... four years. This plastic crack (how true) is the best thing since 3rd ed for me. Don't know how the prices are in the states, but here it's so much cheaper than buying the unpainted pewter minis it's not funny.

So looking forward to the aspect of Bane. My Tormish paladin is going to have fun with that one!
