Xanthir Vang

 

I don't play Pathfinder or know what role he plays in Paizo's campaign setting. All I know is that, just going by the preview of Derek's green, I really, really want this:

(Also, this looks like a good candidate to cast in clear bonesium to allow for transparent spell effects)

 

Ooh! Also, a few of these new Chronoscope minis would be nice (along with some Wehrmacht, Russians and Japanese troops):

I'd like to see more townsfolk, dungeon dressing, monsters (such as the Guardian Beast and the Pathfinder Keketar), and some sort of Oriental-style dragon at least the size of Narthrax. Also, more small-sized hero figures would be nice.

 

More variety in Minotaurs would be cool, too. I have a civilization of Minotaurs in my games, but the miniatures available are limited, wearing little in the way of clothing, and don't really work for a wide variety of character roles. A Minotaur wizard, and maybe female minotaurs too, would be nice to have.

Female and children minotaurs would be awesome! There are a couple of times I've needed a female for a game, but the affordable options are somewhat limited. ^_^

 

Huzzah!

For a clear picture of what ole Xanthir looks like:

Also he is a Worm that Walks. I'm not sure if it's clear in the green that he isn't a actual human (oid). (from the Pathfinder prd: "When a powerful spellcaster with a strong personality, a lust for life, and a remorselessly evil soul dies and is buried in a graveyard infused with eldritch magic, a strange phenomenon sometimes occurs. The flesh of the decaying body fats and instructs the very worms that gnaw, and these graveworms quicken not only on corruption but upon the spellcaster's memories and magical power. The spellcaster's very soul is consumed in this vile process, only to be split apart to inhabit each of the individual chewing worms in so many fragments. The result is a hideous hive mind of slithering life known as a worm that walks—a mass of worms that clings to the vague shape of the body that granted it this new existence, and can wield the powers and magic the spellcaster had in life. A worm that walks retains memories of its life as a spellcaster before its death, but is not undead—it is a hideous new form of undulant life."

 

Pretty cool stuff & Xanthir was a very cool villian in somewhat overpowered Adventure Path. I'm glad Reaper is coming out with a metal version of him.

 

I may have suggested this already but stirges! There is a real lack of stirge miniatures and a lot of my old school modules use a lot of them.

 

Totally agree!! We Be Goblins 2 has a encounter with 12 of them. While they aren't directly fighting the party, they factor into how the party goes about them. I use Paper minis from Paizo & would love 'regular' minis without breaking the bank for metal or pre-paints. Pre-painted ones are always way over priced & while I'm for metal, these I can see in Bones. Simple minis.

 

Also I'd love to see a pack of just domesticated house cats. Since I'm wanting to run an adventure with 25 of the suckers it's gonna be a challenge to come up with them without breaking the bank. I've got 6 so far. Take the cats from Edna, Crazy cat lady or just make the familiar cat & make em a pack of 6.

Caught the bug from the Bones KS III comments! Dinosaurs!! (just not at the expense of Dragons)

 

Oh, and just in case no one has mentioned it yet, it would be nice to see Roderick and Glitter brought to bones. It would be REALLY nice if they came to bones in the current sculpt as well as an more kinetic pose!

I think dinosaurs are perfect for bones. The large ones being affordable, and the smaller ones that you need in groups, like raptors being a great choice.

 

Though along these lines I would like some made up beast creatures. As an example, the catbeast things that the GW ogres ride. Something fantastic... a fantastic beast... a big wooly horned rabbit buffalo, a winged shark giraffe... With the fantastic Beasts movie, there should be plenty of inspiration. Monstrous creatures would be great. Howdahs or large saddles to make them monstrous cavalry capable. This could range from the absurdly cute to the ferociously aggressive.

Giants, the bigger the better, with a more fantastical theme and more characterful. A giant NOT out of the monster manual (ie Not obviously a hill/storm/fire etc).

Thinking of something like the main giant character in the Big Friendly Giant movie. Doesn't necessarily have to be friendly though, could be mean.

Y'mean like, Not-Croods style critters?

Not speaking of Crood style critters, I'd love some prehistoric critters like saber-toothed tigers and giant sloths and mastodons and woolly mammoths and woolly rhinos and axebeaks and Roderick and Glitter and the Deinotherium and and and . . .
