I'd like to see Boris, Evil Fighter in Bones. He used to be available in P-65, and he's such a massive hunk o' metal and has really sharp defined features. I think he would translate well.

This guy?  Yeah, I'd be down for that, though the model looks a little flat.  Alternately, maybe a new sculpt might be able to take advantage of the medium to make Boris look a bit more dynamic.  Either way, I'd throw some money Reaper's way for it. ::):

Just chiming in to cast my Bones vote for terrain! 

 

My group and I are just getting into Frostgrave, so fantasy ruins would be amazing - similarly, for those sandbox-table Pathfinder / D&D / Whatever games representing a town post dragon-attack or what have you. 

 

Armorcast does fantasy ruins in resin - I imagine Reaper could do them better and cheaper!

People in medium armor. Most of the warrior types seem to be shirtless barbarians or knights in full plate. I'd like to see more in between. Like chain shirts, full chain, breastplates, half-plate, etc.

Speaking of the new, resized models, I could go for:

  • A new Stone giant, sculpted to be a bit bigger and more menacing
  • A new cyclops, scaled to fit on a 3" base
  • A new, bulkier eye tyrant beast that would dominate a round 2" base

Not just the warriors, but many of the character figure types seem to be dominated by high-level representations.

 

I remember way back when Ral Partha would package three life progression figures together, depicting low, middle, and high level versions of the same character, with equipment improving along with them. Also when they had the AD&D license they released male and female versions of the same character type in one package.

 

Not to say that Reaper should do that same kind of bundling, but it seems like a good design philosophy to plan out character figures in that way.

Yes! I have the Cleric and Magic user Ral Partha sets and I still love them to this day. Unfortunately, minis have increased in size over time so they're no longer to scale with modern minis. But these are perfect for a campaign as adventurers level up. It would be especially great for bones because they are relatively inexpensive.

How about the conversion bits that reaper already has in metal? I mean i'd pick up a bunch of those and some of them are already cool as everything. It'd drastically change the weight distribution to give metal hands to a bones mini, but if i slap some new bones hands on, then it'd be fine.

Swirly portal gatey things in translucent Bones plastic that stand up on bases. Perhaps even in more than one color. That is to say, molded in blue plastic and others in orange plastic. On the off chance I ever get around to marketing that skirmish boardgame based on Valve's "Portal" game.

Have you played the Portal board game?

Didn't know there WAS a Portal board game. I was kidding. Although I'd still like to see Bones portals; I was thinking in terms of bits for my new Ghostbusters boardgame, as well as scary interdimensional transition points for RPGs.
