I agree..I never thought of AoW and promo mini connection until I saw the pic of the Purple Worm mini in Preview 1....Then I realized how much is resembled the big greenies from AoW.
I wouldnt have picked a AoW thing as my 2nd guess either until a battlemat was released that was made for the final battle (wich is Kyuss).
For the record..the cover of the Dragon that reveals the promo has Tiamat on the cover...Hmmm.

It might not be the dragon you're thinking of.
I really want to know, but we'll just have to wait. | |

What if it was repainted with the metallic dragon heads? Maybe it's jsut me but that would be cool. [:D] | |

I can't see it. They wouldn't look anything like the metallic dragon heads and nothing else like it exists in any kind of D&D literature I've ever heard of. | |

| | I really hope this promo is something that is unique to the magazine and isn't a repaint or something that will be released in future sets. they've built it up soooo much that it better be something really good! | |

Based on that logic then it would mean we are getting an Uncommon Huge Dragon on WotDQ since I don't see how they would have tons of Rare Huge Dragons to give away.
If it is an Uncommon Huge dragon then it means it is not going to be as nice looking as a Rare would...so if you are all about celebrating 30 years, dragon mag, etc wouldn't it be something spectacular?
It could very well be an exclusive too, tough move but it could be. | |

| I would rather see them do a Dragon related repaint than any other. I always read the editorial page in Dragon and Erik Mona seems like he really wants to make the 30th anniversary issue special.
Here's hoping if they do a Dragon repaint that it is done right. | |

I think that any of the minis for a magazine promo would be extremely "special". So, in my little mind it is going to be hella cool.....[:D] | |

| | This may seem like a silly question based on what I see being said here, but is this promo going to be available in the store-bought version of the magazine in anyway? Mail in order, etc. I ask because it seems like the general consensus is that it is literally being given away to subscribers and I just can't see that carrying over to the store version. Any help, particularly a link to something official or at least official-ish would be appreciated. | |

No one.. especially not me, said this promo was going to be "given away". It is, however, available to subscribers only. So, there will be no over the counter version. This baby is by prescription.. err.. subscription only.

| My guess is something like this:
In the "Promo" issue you will find a special URL to a form on the paizo site . You have to go there and enter your subscription number and an adress you wish the promo to be send to. Once you did, they will send you the mini.
Very simple. | |
