Nothing as good as the one on the wizards site. It was just a January to April catalog.

The Gargantuan Blue looks so fantastic...I litterally sat there stunned for like 5 minutes before I regained my sences.

Its awsome...Just awsome.

And you are right Ragecage...Thats a Large Black..It doesnt look undead or templated at all.

Its kinda funny that we now know the set icon (a bat)..but still dont really know what the icon is for Bloodwar :)

I think they did this because, technically, WotDQ was a different type of product, in that they were huge packs

It's a severed Biker Scout head [:D]

The Gargantuan Blue looks phenomenal. I'll have to add that to the things to buy list....

Large Black Dragon is definitely on the want list as well.

Blood War has a 90% probability of having a Large Chaotic Good dragon (i.e. Brass).

Following the pattern trend, here's my predictions:
Dragoneye = CE (Red), Archfiends = LG (silver), Deathknell = LE (blue), Angelfire = CG (copper), Underdark = CE (deep), War Drums = LG (bronze), DQ = LE (green), Blood War = CG (brass), Unhallowed = CE (black), set 13 = LG (gold), set 14 = LE (?), set 15 = CE (white)

I agree. For some reason the rearing poses don't seem as intimidating to me as a dragon that is basically staring your character or warband eye-to-eye.

There is not, by any chance, a scan of the Dungeonscape book listing floating around? I have not seen the cover yet and if it is in the catalog, I would greatly appreciate a peek.

Neat! I like Black Dragons, so Uhallowed is off to a good start. I also get the feeling that we'll be seeing a unique undead, after reading the description of the set. Szass Tam, anybody?

I also like the look of the Gargantuan Blue, from what can be seen of it in the picture.

More likely Strahd, but who knows...

That Gargantuan blue looks amazing! [^] I love it. Especially since the Blue is my favorite of the dragons.

You should have mentioned something last night, I could have brought a catalog down.

The last name's spelled "Bulmahn" on the cover, if that's what you're worried about... [:o)] Pretty cool, though - has a beholder blasting at a dude with a flaming sword.

I would, but I have no where to host the pictures. I could e-mail them to someone.

Nopers. It's going to be a Large Brass. Large Black in Unhallowed fist the pogression perfectly- Unhallowed is "supposed" to have a CE dragon. IF that is indeed the case, that means that they're likely stikcing to the progression, which means we get a CG dragon in BW. And since the Large copper has already been done....


Of course, they could always do a planar dragon like the battle dragon (NG- they'd put it in CG) too.

I'm very excited by the look and pose of the gargantuan blue dragon. I definitely think this type of pose looks better on dragons than the one on the gargantuan black dragon. I can't wait to get that blue. I'm also very pleased about getting a large black dragon in Unhallowed. Now we'll only need a tiny and an unmounted huge black dragon to complete the black dragon set.

Considering that the catalog says that the box is 15 inches long, I'd say probably.

I looked in the Draconomicon, and it gives the combined head+tail length of a gargantuan blue dragon as 50 feet. Which is a little longer than the 20x20-ft. base. [)]

The pose looks darn good but I wish it was reserved for the Gargantuan Black. As much as Black Dragons are my favourite, I must admit that the pose for the black is a bit goofy. Oh well, too late now.

As for the Huge and Tiny Black, I unfortunately believe, as much as I absolutely *****HATE***** to say it, we will be tortured with no salvation for many a set to come. Even less hope for the unspoiled Huge than for the Tiny, with good reason, obviously.[:(]

You're talking about a Dragon. It's the adventurers that are really gonna suffer from its serious base-overhang [)]

Besides, I think it looks like its legs are long enough that it should clear most medium sized minis well enough.

Anyway. Consider me cautiously optimistic for Unhallowed. Hopefully my Dragon-luck will continue through that set! I could use me a few LBlackDs.
