Off the top of my head... I would love it if Reaper released a Mantis Clan Samurai wielding a pair of kama for the Rokugan line. :wub:

 

I also agree that some low level models would be cool, maybe even progression series for a particular type of character like some other company does (can't remember the name offhand, sorry). Didn't they come out with some backpacking adventurer types a bit back though? I'm really fond of those, though they still seem like high level characters. Hmmm...

Abyssal Sea Dragon - huge eyes, an impossibly wide mouth brimming with fangs, and a dangly-anglerfish lure thingie. No wings, short neck, and real short legs with wide splayed-toes and a fin down its spine.

SOLD! well, I'm sold on the idea anyway...I'd love to have a go at it!

I've got candy... ^_^

 

And those toes should be webbed, of course, and maybe five or six per foot. The skin should be scaleless, kind of warty, maybe with some seaweed-shaped fringes. Down the length of the body maybe rows of 'bubbles' for me to paint as bioluminescent nodes. I have a bottle of glow-in-the-dark paint that's aching to be used on this bad boy.

 

How would he be posed...The stereotypical dragon is crouched on all fours, or in flight...hmmm! What if he were rearing up on his hind legs, using his forepaws to grasp a pair of adjacent underwater fumaroles or volcanoes or even just outcroppings of rock, with his face peeking from between them, twisted into an absolutely ghoulish grin, like he's thinking, "Gotcha now, adventurers..." a moldering, barnacle-encrusted mast would work as well, and serve to remind that this guy's aquatic. Then his belly would be slightly more visible, what with his short legs and all, and you could sculpt cool fringy growths along his midline. And elbows, and knees, and anyplace else it would seem appropriate.

 

I've got the most recent National Geographic in front of me, which has a lovely article on deepsea life around Monterey Bay and I'm culling ideas from that. Hm. Vampyroteuthis infernalsis, the Infernal Vampire Squid (Ia Ia!), has instead of suckers rows of thorny spines on the underside of its tentacles. Maybe a row of similar structures on either side of the central dorsal fin. Did I mention that the eyes should absolutely bulge? Like grapefruits rammed into the sockets. Big ol' googly eyes. And thick lips drawn well back from the teeth. maybe sculpt a few nasty cankers on his exposed gumline. Jagged and broken teeth would be lovely too.

 

Maybe with a merperson crushed beneath one gigantic paw.

 

 

And, based on the periodic insect of the season and all the havoc it's wreaking with irrational people, how about a Demon Lord of Cicadas? I'm not sure Chicastus is close enough to convert, at least not for my talents.

I would love to see a Musketeer figure...done like the outfits from Man in a Iron Mask...

 

Also...more familars that could easily be modified to sit on characters shoulders...

 

How about more Gothic evil looking Elves...Elric comes to mind...

I'd like a ZOMBIE dragon myself. Not a skeletal one, though the skeletal one is very cool (the small one, I've not had a good look at the bigger one), but I'd like one with rotting flesh and such to help further fuel my undead mini fetish. (on a side note, I love the zombie werewolf)

 

And someone mentioned L5R mantis figures. Were the Wasp Archers ever released for the original clan war line? I'd like to see some wasp figures in their stylised chitin-like armour. That would be very cool.

 

And lastly, some more stuff like that female scribe green from a while back. That was also pretty elite. =)

How about a big, gritty, hacked up warrior in scarred leather armor, holding a huge broadsword that's all knicked up with the point resting on the ground, smelling a daisy with a slightly goofy smile on his face.

hahaha That's an awesome idea! Even i would paint something like that!

Or one sitting, hugging her knees to her chest, smiling sweetly, with her wings flared behind her. And a barbed tail behind, curling up slightly.

 

 

And wider bases on Klocke's females. Yeah, I know I could put them into the available square bases, but I like the cast-on bases and Klocke's females tend to topple easily.
