That's a good point. Well, at least there's a Minsc & Boo figure out now (in my MM cart!). I can get my hamster hero fix one way or another. My parents gave me a hamster when I was a little kid. Named him Sodapop after the character from The Outsiders. Had that guy for at least 6 years. Now I can't help but adore the idea of a fantasy character with a tiny animal companion. Darn parents and their awesome pet giving. ::P:

 

 

If you want a cheaper optoin, find the invisible version in the prepainted sets. The invisible version are pretty much the "clean" versions before China slaps the paint on them. I picked up a Night Hag this way, like 3x cheaper then what the actual one is going for & after primer, it looks like a regular figure. Granted you won't get the fine detail like the gf9 figures give you, but it's a option.

 

Soooo glad the final date was moved up. While I'm enthusiastic about Bones 4, the campaign started a month before I left for the 1st Oregon Ducks football game I attended last year & I really wasn't excited for it & it's carried over afterwards. I think I've spent like 150 to 170 dollars so far on this one. This will change before the final date but glad it's not this month!

There is a thing known as a Dread Saurian, which is a unit in certain wargame rules. I am thinking a Wingless Argent could be a useful, pretty close, about the right size proxy model for a DS. 

 

...need to know more detail...

All I know is, he's huge! And seeing how all the other models are coming along, man I am gonna have one ticked off Mailman.***

 

If someone at Reaper has time ( @ladystorm ?) a really useful how-big-is-he scale image would involve about twelve guys from the Sir Forscale Regiment.   If they were positioned in a kanga Line formation, bases touching, along side the Dragon —or— just drop him into the largest of the oval bases, that would be nifty. (If that exists do please somebody point to a link?)

 

***I dunno how Royal Mail or RCMS does it but USPS does not give big packages to the normal residential Letter Carriers. There is a separate truck for parcels that will serve several letter carrier routes within a residential zip code. Might not be your normal guy.

Thanks for the feedback, yall.   :winkthumbs:

 

While I was limited to what items we have available for me to use, yall helped me understand what was higher on the wish lists.

Now once the art assets are put in the shared folder, I can get them into the update and launch it....

 

Again, I'm still on medical half days, leaving at noon. 

I'll respond while I'm in office, but once gone for the weekend, I'm unlikely to respond until Monday, both here and in KS comments.

That may be region or post office specific, because I can tell you from personal experience, you get a package (no matter how big), you are delivering it! Sometimes every inch of the truck is used (and then you have pickups, so it's always crowded). You should see the trucks during the holidays:(

Okay, probably just time to avoid this thread for a week or so. I can see what's going to happen here...

That we're all going to excitedly discuss how much wonderful character Bobby Jackson put into those gnomes? How delightful the texture that Bob Ridolfi put on those fungi is? How absolutely gorgeous and elegant that Spirit Beast Julie Guthrie sculpted is? How much we want to paint 20 copies of the rogue that Gene Van Horne gave such beautiful detail and depth to that even just primed her face has the most delightful mischievous badelf look to it? Or are we all just going to endlessly gush over what beautiful paint jobs Michael Proctor did, especially on Baba Yaga's hut? Or maybe just wildly speculate about what exactly we're looking at in that last picture? Because to me, it looks like Big Bird being eaten alive by worms. I mean, probably it's something that was included in the campaign, but there's a tremendous amount of stuff on offer, who knows, I might've missed something.
