There was suppose to be a Blue Dracolich in GOL but it got canned due to the sculpture not coming out right as such the LE Minis faction got screwed and didnt get a single huge figure to call its own.
Im hoping that the Colossal is a Dracolich as it would make a Aniversary piece for the FRs birthday next year
According to gaming report, it's a colossal red dragon and a gargantuan black dragon.

Yeah saw that, I was of cause hoping for a Dracolich but I can live with the Black and the Red.... Now all we need is a module to use them in... Perhaps you could do an adventure Eric where the Cult of the Dragon Resurrects Chardansearavitriol???  |

Dargoth, I'm guessing you're only including the Realms "exclusive" minis in the list? I only ask because I noticed you didn't list the Aspect of Lolth in the Archfiends set, Clerics of Yondalla, Gruumsh, Lolth & Corellon from Harbinger, Champion of Yondalla from Deathknell, Cleric of Garl Glittergold from Aberrations, Cleric of Moradin & Eye of Gruumsh from Dragoneye. |

Yep, that's what I was referring to. I was just wondering of you were leaving out the clerics/champions of "dual existance" gods because they are not purely Faerunian.
Correct, Alaundo asked for the FR specfic stuff |

Really?
That's a little unfair. I know most ports in Australia are experiencing shipping delays because of this new manifest system they're using... but for the City of Churches to actually receive overseas products before the east-coast... well, that is INTERESTING.

Id say someone broke the WOTCs release date, this ussually happans with every product WOTC at some place in the world
Stores in Queensland and Germany for example released LEOF about 2 weeks early |

Yeah, I think I saw the Underdark minis when I popped into my gaming store late last week. I looked again, reached for my wallet and then slapped myself and left quickly!!

They'd just take up space - I've already got thousands of 1/72 scale Napoleonic wargaming figures that I'm going to paint ... "one day". I'm a collector so I have to very careful about my impulses - they most always lead to a huge outlay of $$ for little return of any description: I always use my foray into MtG as a reminder of avoiding the latest fad.:)

I bought a case and was very pleased, I got everything I wanted except a Death Slaad and the Grey Render. But I did manage to get the Balor, the Deep Dragon and the Silver Dragon. The xorns and ankhegs are quite nice too.  |

Info for "War of the Dragon Queen" released
http://www.randomhouse.ca/catalog/display.pperl?isbn=9780786938872
Given the sets name and the fact the WOTC said they could do a large Aspect of tiamat, it is strongly speculated that WoDQ will be another Huge set like Giant of Legend
So if you missed out on a Huge Dragon last year then your likely to get another shot in July 06 |

According to PC gamer magazine War Drums will feature a Hill Giant Barbarian
A Pic of which can be found here
http://happyhikers.ca/OtherStuff/PictureUploads/Hill%20Giant%20Barbarian.jpg
Its suspected that it will be an uncommon so those of you who didnt get a Hill Giant in Arch Fiends you'll have a 2nd shot at one! |
