TheAuldGrump Posted April 22, 2019 Share Posted April 22, 2019 Me, I am liking their props and accessories more and more. The characters and monsters are nice - but, hey, a gibbet! Street signs and lights! And somebody that just needs a hug! The Auld Grump 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lidless Eye Posted April 22, 2019 Share Posted April 22, 2019 On a fun related note: Pathfinder Battles Reign of Winter pre-painted set was supposed to have Baba Yaga's Dancing Hut as the case incentive, but it was deemed to be too expensive to produce. They threw in the White Dragon at the last minute, and while there are several White Dragons in the Adventure Path, he is the incorrect size for all of them. That White Dragon is also now the unpainted one in the line, and while we'll probably never see a Wizkids Dancing Hut, I really do like the Reaper one. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nunae Posted April 23, 2019 Share Posted April 23, 2019 Apparently the Kraken that was available painted previously will now also become available unpainted. Fingers crossed the ship will go the same way (and get a lot cheaper in the process). 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doesn't have to be a thousand times this cheaper, but I just can't justify it at the current price point either, no matter how awesome it is. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
haldir Posted April 23, 2019 Share Posted April 23, 2019 A recent price drop "sale" at Miniature Market involved the ship, if the price had dropped to 150 to 140 I may have been tempted. It ended up dropping to 170, so I was safe. Cool news to see the next wave will release May 1st vs end of May. Thou, that doesn't help my spectator encounter. Spec' fought a good fight but in the end he is just compost now!! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The fore and aft-castle have removeable roofs, that are hard to remove, but the main deck doesn't come off to show a lower deck, like it hinted at in the preview. I do like the magnetized masts and cloth sails, but the rest is to bland and non functional. Halber 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PaganMegan Posted April 24, 2019 Share Posted April 24, 2019 Grump had a cardboard ship he printed up from somewhere that looked really good, and did have all the decks. I have no idea where he got the PDF, or where he keeps it. But the thing is HUGE! And. He. Gave. It. AWAY. 22 hours ago, Lidless Eye said: Madmartigan was in Wave 1 of Pathfinder: Deep Cuts": That DOES look like him! 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlazingTornado Posted April 24, 2019 Share Posted April 24, 2019 Yeah Valeros is basically a raven-haired young Val Kilmer in comically overdesigned armor. 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lidless Eye Posted April 25, 2019 Share Posted April 25, 2019 Yeah, a bunch of the Iconics have influences from movie characters or celebrities but they have said Valeros was directly based on Madmartigan, including the name from Val Kilmer. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smokestack Posted May 3, 2019 Share Posted May 3, 2019 Does anyone know how big the new young dragons are? The description does not say, and for base it just says "base". A young dragon is probably "large" so 50mm, but these are twice the cost of the large silver, so they may be huge? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
haldir Posted May 3, 2019 Share Posted May 3, 2019 They are probably the size of the prepainted ones that have the flight poles. I think my FLGS is getting these in tomorrow. I'll be picking up the green dragon so we shall see. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderator Darsc Zacal Posted May 3, 2019 Moderator Share Posted May 3, 2019 (edited) My hobby budget has been tight lately but I did have enough left on a Christmas gift card to get a couple of the WizKids giants today. Shown below from left to right; WIzKids Stone Giant, Reaper Bones 4 Stone Giant, Sir Forscale, Wizkids Cloud Giant. And a close up of the Stone Giants, even though Reapers refused to look at the camera. The Wizkids Stone G is bigger than Reapers, but not as much as I thought it would be. The Cloud Giant towers over the two, but I don’t like the sculpt as much as what Reaper has coming out for theirs. However since I figure those are likely about two years away this will fill the role nicely for now. They also had the hill giant, but I really don’t like his styling. And sorry Smokestack, they had the new dragons there but I didn’t have the budget for them. I thought they were a decent size.
