That mini does look very well detailed and the description in the article for it is well done.
Thanks for sharing Dargoth. |

I must say that i'm quite impressed by the look of this latest set of mini's. Unfortunatly, i'll never be able to collect them  As i've said before, if the packs weren't random then i'd go for it, but the cost of getting complete sets much be outrageous.
I may pick up the odd one or two (Realms specific ones of course) from ebay. |

It depends on what purpose you want the minis for
If your buying them as a Collector then you probably shouldnt even buy a single expansion, you can buy them indviduelly from various online stores.
I am how ever using them in my FR campaign so 10 Orc archers isnt really a problem |

Preive 9 features The Steel Regent. I'm very curious to see the details on the shield.
Additionally, recurring villany features The Thayan Knight. |

Have there been any other myconid minis produced? If so, in which expansions were they?

As is usual when I see a minis set list, the first place my eyes go is to the commons, and then the uncommons, trying to find what I will need the most of, and hope beyond hope that they will be stastistically crappy in the game, so I can get good deals on them in bulk once the monkey-on-the-back collecters are done getting their precious rares.
Good group of commons this set, it seems, wit ha nice mix of humanoids for lackeys and minjions, and monstrous humanoids, and even(joy!) a common gnoll.
That, and any day there are kobold minis is a good day.
Looking at the uncommons, I see a few nice ones that could become "crap uncommons" and flood the market, like the tiefling captain and dretch did back in the day.
Of the rares, as usual, the ones that strike out at me as ones I want are going to be the NPCs, not the monsters, unless you count the odd mindflayer or dragon. |

I just played in a local Aberration release tournament yesterday... won 3rd place! yay! 
I have two advices for you if you plan to win in such an out-of-the-box tournament:
1. Fiendish Giant Praying Mantis (I had it, and lays serious waste in enemy lines... attack weak creatures first, then go for the big ones when the rest of your team arrives!! --> this critter has +7/+7, 20 magic damage each attack!)
2. Hexblade (I didn't have it, but the two opponents I lost against had it... this fig can use 3 curses as a Swift Action, each giving you -4 to hit, -4 to saves, -5 to damage... and this power is line of sight!) |

| RPG Shop is now listing a booster and starter available for this product. No singles being sold as of yet. However, they have done this action in the past for other minis. Thus, I'm sure they will here as well. |

I wonder whether they'll get the colouring right for this mini. I've seen very few illustrations of the chuul which improve upon anything we've seen in 2e.

50 Gibbering Mouth (rare)
The real question here is... will we also be seeing the gibbering mouther symbiotes sometimes down the line?
