I need an ungulate. ("Ungulates (pronounced /ˈʌŋɡjᵿleɪts/) are any members of a diverse clade of primarily large mammals that includes odd-toed ungulates such as horses and rhinoceroses, and even-toed ungulates such as cattle, pigs, giraffes, camels, deer, and hippopotamuses.")

Magic: The Gathering has any number of weird herd animals, usually in green. What I'm looking for is a critter that combines the best features of a rhinoceros, a buffalo, and a stag beetle, essentially an armored buffalo that radiates an aura of "not to be messed with." And if they were available in Bones, I'd buy a half dozen.

So a Brontotherium then:

Yes, I would like to see a Brontotherium.

Please can we get some more gnome adventurers, particularly male gnomes. There's precious little choice in this particular miniatures niche. 

 

On the female gnomes side we've got Lini, Cassie, Enora, Ingrid, Elliwyn Heatherlark, Baily Silverbell, Iris, and Thora. Eight little ladies who can all offer a well rounded range of character types. 

 

On the male side there's only six - Balto Burrowell, Corim the Kestrel, Fynch Brassfrog, Marius Burrowell, Gullivar, Fingal Winkbeard - with a notable lack of roguish/ranger/swashbuckler types (although Corim in particular is outstanding). 

 

A couple of male gnomes inspired by Arael the half elf cleric, Aviriel Tellerion the female elf, Finaela the female pirate, - would be awesome. 

 

If I had to pick just one concept, it would be a blend of Marius Burrowell (equipped with a range of adventuring tools) and Kazumi the male monk (in a battle ready stance equipped with a staff). Marius' adventuring gear suggests lots of adventuring inspirations and Kazumi's staff could be a monk's weapon or many kinds of spell caster.

The various hounds =]

02897: Hellhounds

02522: Hell Hounds

14215: Hound Of Judgement,Crusaders Solo

03432: DHL Classics: Undead Hounds

 

Especially the Hound of Judgement, I only discovered him recently and he's lovely =]

 

And moar!

14376: Nalada, Sister of the Blade Warrior

14204: Acacia,Crusaders Sergeant

03746: Ava Justinia, Female Templar - this one especially, she'd be a lovely match for the Crusaders and <33333!

03521: Naline, Evil Female Knight

03520: Elise, Good Female Knight

03403: Na'Kaat, Female Half Dragon Paladin - by extension, moar dragon people

03331: Bettina, Female Hero

03314: Angel of Radiance - Angel wings as seperate bits to purchase too... Wing sprues in general are wonderful.

03004: Dorva, Female Dark Elf 

02551: Monique Denoir

 

And cavalry. You've got loads of really cool cavalry, some of it kind of paired to regular unmounted minis - transitioning cavalry to Bones would be amazing and if possible, mounted and unmounted versions of minis would be awesome. Maybe the mounted versions as just a rider? As Bones is so convertible it'd be a much simpler job to slot them onto a mount of your choosing, than it would be with metal. 

 

I do apologise if any of these are in Bones 3 already, I've a rotten memory ^^;

Another thought - a mythological hippocampus would be awesome! The fish-horse type creature =] maybe one sitting up on a rock like it's just got out of the sea and one swimming, for people with more underwater-y campaigns and stuff.

Perusing the existing metal sets, I'd like to see army builders for the mercenaries like the ones done by Johnson Twine (be kind of cool if they could do the female ones since I think they have more interesting designs and poses). Otherwise, I'd like to see more highlander figures or stuff from Greek mythology.

I've got hundreds, literally, of warriors, wizards, thieves, and so on.  I've got orcs in places you never want orcs.  Know what I'm always wishing I had more of?  Mundane elements.  You've helped a bit with dogs, bears, the pack mule, peasants, the camel, and so on.  What I'd really like, though, is a few more:

 

~Horses.  One or two poses, either unsaddled or with very basic tack (period neutral.)  Simple poses, not rearing.  This could work in a lot of ways for me, as stand-ins for mounted characters, as pieces to build wagons or carts around, for dismounted characters to keep track of, etc.

 

~People.  Regular folk.  The various townsfolk are great, but they are all themed, and most carry a large prop.  When the PCs are escorting rescued prisoners, it looks kind of silly when they are dragging along an anvil and sweeping the dungeon on the way out.  The farmer in 02825: Townsfolk V is a decent example.

 

~A cart or wagon.  

 

~Bandits.  I know you have some in Bones 3, but they're huge.  They look like half-ogres.  Bandits should be scruffy, dirty, just trying to get by.  02677: Townsfolk IV: Bandits is a good example.

 

 

These would all see use for me.  They're things I always need, but can't justify paying full metal prices for.
