| I have read in the forum about some deception with WotDQ for the moment, so I would like to ask you which previewed/leaked minis from this set you really expect anxiously either because you will use it a lot or because you just love it/them.
(Hey, dariustad, you can post your comments in this thread as well [)])
Mine:
Azer Fighter
Aspect of Tiamat
Purple Worm
H. B. Dracolich
H. Fire Elemental
Mountain Troll
Eldritch Giant
maybe Large Green Dragon (I'd prefer a huge one)
probably H. M. Spider (although thus one hasn't been previewed) | |
Champion of the Molydeus
Vindicated Blood War Called Shot: Cornugon (Horned Devil)
Icons Called Shot: Tarrasque
Vindicated Dungeon of Dread Called Shot: Mind Flayer
Against the Giants Called Shot: Uncommon Fire Giant
Demonweb Called Shot: Myrlochar
Feywild Called Shot: Molydeus

Besides the fact I am a volunteer fireman, and will put out the fire,
I would save ALL my minis. | |

| Well if it was a fire, I would save my Drizzt and LSD as they are worth much cash right now. However, in the spirit of the question, I would save:
Aspect of Tiamat
Large Green Dragon
Honorable mention would be the Eldrich giant, and the dracolich. | |

| Call it irony or whatever, but I kind of lived through this scenario about a year ago (June 1, 2005). We had heavy rains here in North Dakota and received 6 inches of rain in a 4 to 5 hour period. As fate would have it my neighborhood flooded at about midnight and my yard became a lake - literally! My egress windows to my basement flooded completely, and then the real nightmare began. One of the egress windows shattered and my basement flooded seven feet deep in about 7 minutes.(just short of the rafters on my 8 foot ceilings)[:(]
What did we save you ask - pictures off the walls is all we had time to. By the time we grabbed the family and baby pictures off the walls and ran upstairs and tried to return for another handful the water was already over the outlets. I had to watch nearly everything I owned of significant value disappear before my eyes. Lost my wifes 100+ year piano, 57 inch big screen TV, entertainment center, surround sound, photo albums, gas fireplace, and all my mini cards for the sets released up to that point. Minis cleaned up well in the dishwasher using silverware cages for the smaller ones, but the kicker was I have completed every set thus far, but I have no cards for sets up to June 2005. Good thing I only use them for RPG purposes, but the value of my sets are now obviously significantly compromised.
Oh well, as some have noted no one was injured. I have to admit though having all of my D&D stuff lost dating back to the early 80's was a bit depressing!
Good news is I am now building a new house with a game room for my obsession.[:D] | |

| | Whether or not its the best peice in the whole set, you have to admit that its always sweet to have the Dracolich. Even if you werent planning on having it in a campaign, it'd be a sweet miniature to own, so I'd have to say that'd be the first one I'd grab. | |

| For me the 'vital' ones would be:
Dracolich
Huge Fiendish Spider (even unseen, as it's soooo useful)
Huge Fire Elemental
Large Green Dragon
Ogre Skirmisher
Purple Worm
Small Black Dragon
Small Copper Dragon
Small Fire Elemental
Stirge
And apart from the Golden Protector, Bonded Fire Summoner , Twig Blight, and Warden of the Wood (the professional "fluffer" of the set), I doubt I'll buy any of the rest [)]. | |

| The only mini I might consider burning would be ther Bluespawn Godslayer, and that's only if it's trade value is very very low. Which it probably will be. Even then I'd probably just try to HEAVILY modify it into something useful.
Minis I'm really looking forward to include but are not limited to:
Azer Fighter
Huge and Small Fire Elementals
Bonded Fire Summoner
Warden of the Wood
Storm Archer
Mountain Troll
Large Green Dragon
Meepo
Dragonwrought Kobold
Dracolich
Cadaver Collector
Tordek, Dwarf Champion
Twig Blight
-Minis I am at least content with
Ogre Skirmisher
Redspawn Belcher
Sorcerer on Black Dragon
Black and Copper Wyrmlings
Large Fang Dragon
Purple Worm
Eldritch Giant
Tree Thing
Not bad I guess. There's just a couple of real bombs in the set. | |
