Unfortunately I don't think any of the Elder Elemental Evils will get the Colossal and Gargantuan treatment until the line REALLY gets off the ground. Most likely we'll just see what qualifies in Core D&D first. Personally I would love a Gargantuan Dendar, but hey, if I need one before then I can find a black rubber snake at Wal Mart that's almost the same scale  |

You're probably right, plus as Warlocko pointed out, they wouldn't get much play time. BTW, the McFarlane dragons have gotten some use at my table, they work well for the bigger dragons. |

The Fire Clan Dragon seems most intriguing to me from the pictures.
The Water Clan and Komodo Clan are the two that look the most interesting to me. I don't care for the post of the Berserker Clan, and I don't like the wings on the Fire Clan. Don't care for the Sorcerer Clan one that much this time around since it is hold a staff.
Of the 1st series, the one that I got was the Sorcerer Clan one, I liked it the best, especially how it is hold the orb. |

I wonder if there will ever be a D&D miniature the size of the AT-AT walker being introduced for the SW minis? Have you seen that thing? It's ginormous!

Indeed, I have.
I'm itching to buy two... but alas I'm already short of coin this month... CoV, about ten novels (some of which aren't WotC -- and two are hardcovers), Battlefront II, Revenge of the Sith DVD, A Game of Thrones RPG... and now I'm waiting to make my $500 AUS purchase for the limited edition prop replica of Anakin Skywalker's Lightsaber hilt from Epis. III.
Luckily there aren't any more new Realms releases to come this month...  .

Yeah I got one on firday, the AT AT is freaking big!
I actually could fit it on any of my book shelves because theres not enough Vertical space for it!
One thing that will be different though is that the D&D Dragons will be on Square bases not the rectangle one the AT ATs on
Getting back to the Dragons I wonder if Wizards will give Richard Lee Byers a Colossal Red or Gargantuan Black when the last Year of Rogue Dragons comes out next year? |

I was most impressed with the AT-AT, my game store has one opened and on display. I figured it would have been made of the rubbery plastic that the minis were made of. But it is actually made of a hard plastic (had concerns with the rubbery stuff of it folding over on its side).
Most impressive indeed.
Can't wait to see the dragons. |

| Are you sure $20 is the price for the figure? I tohught I read somewhere we'd be looking at around a $40-$50 price tag |

D&D Icon minis: Colossal and Gargantuan figures
However, I would love to see what they could do with the Elf-Eater. (Not to mention the fun I could have with my players dropping it on the board 
)
