The two mephits and ice elemental look awsome. The mystery mintature looks like some sort of ooze. Either semi humanoid, or currently devouring a humanoid. | | Pathetic Earthlings.

| Well, I like the pictures.
I will want a few of those in my collection. I am going to guess that all three are uncommon (although the Ice Elemental may be a rare).

| Posted By greyhaze on 01/12/2007 5:10 PM The scale difference between the two mephits sux hard.
The fire mephit is huge compared to the air mephit. The Air mephit does look like it would make a nice small sized ghost of some sort. | | Pathetic Earthlings.

| I'm still surprised that the mystery fig was an air mephit. In my mind, and this is because I first read about them in the original Fiend Folio, all mephit should look like the fire mephit with some variation.
Love the ice (para)elemental, as well. | | Completed trades: blackthorne, Drakkengi,Thorgrin, Ironfist Boulderbender x2, ckissee, nasamonkey, Username, Star, Ace13 x3, emontedodger x2, Drconveyor, church, Joeyb, Sir Bozak The Damned, Xeromod, the other guy x2, Qucalion of Celene, Dagaron x2, berus316, qillan_dvra, AshloreDarkShadow

| I love the mephits - but wonder about the variance in size. I hope that they're common. They have a simple sculpt and paint - except for the clear plastic there's no reason they would be uncommon.
I like the ice elemental but only want one or two. It would make for an meh rare, but I really don't need five or six of the things. | | Champion of Gromph Baenre | |

| | I like. If the mephits are uncommon, I wonder if I'll want to pre-order. They won't be anything like the Stirge, but they might still be hard to come by in significant numbers (because you might want as many as a dozen for an RPG encounter). | | "Before God we are all equally wise - and equally foolish." - Albert Einstein Champion of Myopic Half-Orcs Winner, WBC X | |

| All three minis look fine, and the Ice Elemental sounds like an interesting skirmish option.
Overall, a good preview. | | Champion of the Revenant Knight of the Elf Duskblade Complete Trades: Oni, Kidkach, Melrune, callidusx3 | |

| I like the pics.Â
Both Mephits look pretty cool in clear plastic.Â
I really really like the Ice (Para) Elemental. Just looks totally awsome. A real beast. I hope he has some decent skirmish stats (it sounds like he might, but the can still screw him up).Â

| I think all 3 will be uncommon. Expecially the fire mephit which is just clear plastic with no real paintjob. I still like it, but it's true that it is a bit large. The air mephit is good-looking too. The ice paraelemental is great, very neat (color and sculpt). I sure hope it's uncommon because I want 4 of them (even if I might not use it very often, but it's so nice...) | | Vindicated Champion of the PSEUDODRAGON (Unhappy) vindicated champion of the DRYAD Against the giants called shot : huge cloud giant female Demonweb called shot : ghost | |
