Shadowdragon Posted July 3, 2013 Share Posted July 3, 2013 I'd like to see really big things that are too expensive and heavy to do in metal. I'd also like to see things you need lots of, with multiple poses. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
redambrosia Posted July 3, 2013 Share Posted July 3, 2013 All the metal dragons but in bones. All those spiffy dinos in bones. Everything that's more than $5 as metal in bones, haha 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ObsidianCrane Posted July 4, 2013 Share Posted July 4, 2013 Such a tough thing. Big things for me are; 1) Warlord Frost Giants. I like the body of the Warlord ones but they needed new heads and the change from P65 to Bones is a great chance to improve them. 2) Warlord Cavalry models in particular Crusaders and Nefsokar, as these are fairly generic knights & bandit style models for DnD as well. 3) Warlord Troops: I'd like to see blisters of the "troop packs" where all the variants are present in the blister. So 2-3 models in each blister to support buying them in duplicates to build larger units. 4) Gnolls: there are a bunch of gnoll models in the catalog and 1 or 2 more varients (ideally from the Warlord catalog) would allow building bands of gnolls for rpgs/warlord. 5) Ogres/Hill Giants: these larger models really benefit from Bones. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheAuldGrump Posted July 4, 2013 Share Posted July 4, 2013 I'll try not to rehash what has already been posted in the previous Request Thread. Furthermore, I'm going to suggest largely new models, as I'm sure everyone else will cover the must-have converts from metal. So without further ado... more Lovecraftian beasties. Specifically, I would love to see Mi-Go and Dark Young. Also, if you can skirt the IP line, I'd like to see something akin to the Shambler from Quake.... Big, big fellow! Oh... and a tentacled Nyarlathotep of size equal to Cthulhu as well as a more human sized Black Pharaoh..... Ia! Shub Niggurath! Black Goat of the Woods, and her Thousand Young! Dagon.... The Auld Grump may be an Auld One, but not an Old One.... 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Right now both (that's right, there's only 2) are called clerics, and they have the same weapon. While they're both great sculpts, I'm reasonably certain that in a race a fearsome as gnolls the females would not allow themselves to be confined to one roll and they would most certainly bite the heads off (hehe) of any males who tried to put them in a place. re Ogres: I would also like to see a greater variety of females here. I think there's two here also, and they could be so much cooler. I'm thinking fearsome Ogress warrior or witches. Since ogres are ugly to begin with, they could really roll with the ugly with thing And of course, having them in bones would be ideal. I don't buy the gnolls and ogres in metal because it's too pricey for me to justify unless it's for a special boss or PC. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kitchen_wolf Posted July 5, 2013 Share Posted July 5, 2013 Something like this door: P1000919 by kitchen_wolf, on Flickr It's the ultimate dungeon trope - a closed door. It's free-standing so you can turn it perpendicular to the wall when it's open. They'd probably sell well in 3 packs. 17 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheAuldGrump Posted July 6, 2013 Share Posted July 6, 2013 (edited) Something like this door: P1000919 by kitchen_wolf, on Flickr It's the ultimate dungeon trope - a closed door. It's free-standing so you can turn it perpendicular to the wall when it's open. They'd probably sell well in 3 packs. Once upon a time - ca. 1979 or so, when I was a Young Grump, I had an adventure where the party thief (not rogue - thief, engaging in the profitable pastime of theft) separated from the party in a quest for, well, unconsidered trifles. While thus engaged the young rogue managed to find a treasure trove, and so eager was he to enrich his personal coffers that he neglected to secure the door behind him - which then shut and vanished from sight, leaving him trapped in a room with no doors. Being not without resources the scallywag put on his ring of wishes and demanded of the ring 'Make me a door!' When later the rest of the party encountered the lost treasure vault and spiked the door to prevent accident, they found, in the center of the room, a freestanding door, with neither threshold nor frame. The magic-user cast the ever helpful spell detect magic. Lo and behold! the door was magic - a transformation spell of some kind. So, with no clue that the door was their erstwhile thief, they placed the magic door in their bag of holding and carried it off with them. To the best of my knowledge they may carry it with them yet.... (The player of the thief started laughing as they were messing around with the door, and never explained what had happened.) Yes, I would like a door like that in Bones... I will name it Nathan, after the player of that long ago thief.... *EDIT* In a similar vein - a vault door, a square filled with spikes (for the bottom of a spiked pit), and other dungeon dressings.

Especially since in real-world hyenas, the females are by far the more dominant sex! Really, most of the fearsome gnoll warriors should be women. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Slendertroll Posted July 6, 2013 Share Posted July 6, 2013 Since it got deleted in the last thread, I'd actually really love to see some historically-accurate Romani minis. It would also be a great opportunity to add some mounted figures to the line. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MatrissaTheEnchantress Posted July 6, 2013 Share Posted July 6, 2013 Please add a plus one to the request for "wandering travelers" in the Romani style. I'd like to see men and women both, as performers (dancers, musicians, fortune tellers) and as tinkers. In both male and female varieties. I'd also like to see a couple of different covered wagons with mounts to pull them. (In my minds eye I'm thinking along the line of young Kvothe's family troupe from "The Name of the Wind" by Patrick Rothfuss.) As I mentioned towards the end of the earlier thread, I'd also like more regular animals ranging from the dangerous (bears, lions, wolves) to the useful (draft horses, riding dogs, donkeys) and everything in between. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ced1106 Posted July 6, 2013 Share Posted July 6, 2013 (edited) Some backers of the Cthulhu Wars KS want to make their own fan factions, and would like miniatures to help them do this! Human faction: Investigator miniatures. More Mythos factions: Cultists Reaper has some darn nice cultist figures... http://www.reapermini.com/Miniatures/cultist/latest And investigators: http://www.reapermini.com/Miniatures/investigator I'd like to see some modern-day figures to finish up my Arkham Horror miniature bling: Cultists, Warlocks, Witches, and Axe murders. Fun for the whole family! Ghoul Witch and Greka: http://www.reapermini.com/Miniatures/Witch Edited July 6, 2013 by ced1106 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
