Suggestions for the C3V

I'm not sure how closely you guys have been following the D&D 5e news, but one important bit is that the new "Icons of the Realms" Starter is confirmed for release this July alongside the full set. The Starter will have THESE FIVE figures along with a wee fella. $20 MSRP but probably a lot cheaper elsewhere. Currently only $15 at Miniature Market, for example.

For specifics, it contains the following figures: "dwarf cleric, human ranger, halfling rogue, northlands fighter, elf wizard, and the famous drow ranger, Drizzt Do’Urden."

Computer renders for 5/6ths of the starter set (minus the halfling)...



...and three pics from GAMA this March (missing Drizzt, this time):







GAMA pics are from CrittoHit's coverage of the WizKids booth.

Squad of two Twilight Clan Ninjas, anyone?

I know its been brought up multiple times, but seeing as how you announced you were going to use the Orc set I thought I'd push for this to be used in a future release as well. It seems to have decent availability with-
7 at Miniature Market
16 at Cool Stuff Inc.
45 on Amazon
8 at Barnes and Noble's "Other Sellers"
for 76 total not including the ones actually at Barnes and Nobles and at Local Game Stores. And the Singles that are also available.

All of the minis except I can see as being new unique heros. The Zombie could even be a "Repaint Exclusive" like the past Gencon figures.

Also, in keeping with tradition I hope you guys are not making squads using figures of the same sculpt with the orcs.

Don't worry, we're not considering that.

Not even close.

Just a thought - we have elementals for all the western elements, how about the Chinese elements as well? We could have Wood Elementals for Ullar and Metal Elementals for Vydar. This still leaves Valkrill out when it comes to elemental action - maybe you could come up with something for them. Shadow Elemental maybe?

I made a custom Shadow Elemental awhile back using the shadow figure from D&D, it's kinda of pricy though. The other side would be a Steel Elemental, Ullar hands down would be a Wood Elemental. Valkrill would be death or necrotic.

Wow - that figure would be perfect for a His Dark Materials Spectre, or at least better than any other figure I've seen. I'll probably use that when I get round to designing them (no idea when that'll be). Ever read those novels? They're my personal favourites.

Cant say I have, I saw the golden Compass, whole series reminds me of Bioshock/Bioshock Infinite. I think the last thing I read was Brandon Sanderson/Robert Jordan's Wheel of Time series, which is my personal favorite of all time.

Having Trollics an shades in Heroscape would be interesting

Any of those would work for a "Wolf Spirit Hero" and be on a double base, could boost Native Americans & Varkaanan Wolves in some way, which would be pretty cool thematically. Personally I think the white one works best.

I think I see some green wyrmlings.

I think I see some unpainted wyrmlings.
