Yeah, the Hulk is quite nice, it reminds me of rugby

The drow is quite meh. Nothing spectacular. I hope she will have the ability to conjure Spders of LOLth.

Perhaps we should call Desert of Desolation "Harbinger Resculpts" (Drow Priestess, Umber Hulk, Mummy....).


Wait... WotC is making another Mummy....? WtF?!?! We need ANOTHER MUMMY!?!?! With all the great, classic monsters that have yet to be immortalized in plastic ('til my baby gets ahold of them) they're making ANOTHER MUMMY!?!?!?! AAAAAAAAAARRRRHHHGGGG!!!

One of Desert of Desolation box arts is a mummy.

They should call it the Umber Hulk Lineman and give it some kind of a bull-rush ability. Pretty nice looking.

I'm not impressed with the Drow Spider Priestess. Hope it looks nicer in hand.

A nice preview to start with. It feels a bit strange to be writing that, as they are just resculpts of minis that I already have (essentially). However, the Umber Hulk was much needed for many players, and I'm happy to have another one with a different sculpt. I can't really argue that another drow of any description is "much needed" - the number of drow produced is ridiculously out of proportion to their actual appearance in adventures (taken as a whole). Even so, I quite like the look of this one.

I always seem to be more enthused by the monthly previews than the weekly ones. They tend to show the minis with the broadest appeal.

Quite true.  Since drow are so popular to make over and over, I have set aside one of my storage containers for drow and duergar.  I have another one for elves and another for dwarves, for example.  Drow are so abundant that I have needed space just for them.

Eye of Lolth??  Umber Hulk Delver?  Uncommon Drow?  I like the idea of the Drow being uncommon.

A couple of guesses from hordelings:

At a guess:
Rare - Umber Hulk Delver
Uncommon - Drow Spider Priestess

The Harbinger Umber Hulk has the same hump on its back as the Desert of Desolation Umber Hulk (Delver), either proportionally or height-wise. The Harbinger Umber Hulk is taller, either proportionally or height-wise, because of its raised claw.

"EOL" is probably "End of Line", meaning "text ends here". The alternative is too terrible to contemplate.



and

One uncommon.
I bet it's the drow priestess.

Not the Delver.
Umber Hulk's true name is Umber Hulk Delver, I guess.

HarbUH hump same, claw higher.
This refers to the size, and the implication is that Harb UH is pretty much the same size as the new one.

EOL
EOL could stand for "Eye of Lolth," which is a drow PrC from Drow of the Underdark (rogue/cleric secret police type of character). It may be our second drow in the set (leftovers from Night Below, anyone?)

As long as I've been waiting for an Umber Hulk, I've gotta give it a mediocre at best. I just don't care for the paint at all. The sculpt is nice, but I don't much care for the thought of repainting rares with my skill level. I like the drow, but for crying out loud can we get a drow priestess with a snake-headed whip?!?




Please?

I hope the drow priestess is uncommon. Pic doesnt look good enough to be a rare. Almost monochromed.
Drow Priestess + New Drider, same number drow as night below in the desert :?

I reckon umber hulk will be rare though, pump that demmand up.

I'm not really sure I can even put my finger on it, it's just one of those things where my initial reaction was dislike. I'm sure it'll grow on me...it has to as it's the only Umber Hulk I'm likely to get.

I ask only because I'm looking at the original one right here...and it is almost a flat brick red/maroon.  No shading at all......and some green eyes, bright anteenae and claws.

By comparison, the new one looks much better.

Except the Claws...LIDDA, SHOE, ANYONE....TELL THE FACTORY WORKERS THAT CLAWS/TEETH ARE AMONGST THE MOST IMPORTANT THINGS TO PAINT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!  NO MORE COLOSSAL RED DRAGON SCENARIOS PLEASE!!!!

I'm not sure.  The reason why I think it's a sculpt issue is that everyone I've talked to who works with the minis line
very much gave me the impression that they wouldn't miss a detail like this if they could swing it. It's just too obvious a detail to miss unless there was a problem making something like that.

This seems like it is more likely since the sculpt looks simpler.  We'll see, though.  I definitely wouldn't mind get a couple of them.

That's right. Remember the Hill Giant Barbarian from WD: wonderful sculpt and uncommon! Like it even much more than both rares Hill Giant from AF and Hill Giant Chieftain from WD.

It looks very nice, If the final version looks that nice, rare. If it's a paint master (possible, given how early it is) Then possibly uncommon. Either way, Umber Hulk Owns my Bones!

The D&D books in the preview look rather nice too, as does the Legend of Drizzt scenario pack...

About time about the Umber Hulk. Don´t care about the Drow, she´s OK but she needs good skirmish stats to be liked by me. I bet she won´t be commander 5 like the old one but better costed after all.

I have the Harbinger Cleric olf Lolth but no Harbinger Umber Hulk. If I had both of them these resculpts stll wouldn´t bug me (he, "bug" me) because I still like the old sculpts.

They likely won't do anything Dark Sun-related, as there's never been an official WotC 3.X conversion (I don't think the Dungeon/Dragon conversion from a couple of years ago counts). It seems like DDM only reflects current products, which is why Eberron sees so much action, and Planescape/Dragonlance/Dark Sun/insert-2nd-edition-setting-here doesn't.
Except Halflings. They went from the cherubic, inocent-looking creatures that you would actually overlook in the racial description to the little, feral, nasty buggers that you would NEVER turn your back on from Dark Sun.

maybe for new players who can´t afford get some of the good Drow commanders like the Cleric or that drow wizard, This new miniature have something interesting like MW for CE.

I'm perfectly okay with the Umber Hulk being a rare again. Not something I need legions of as a DM.

Hello,

It will be interesting to see what either of the pieces brings t o the table for skirmish.  I know that I will be looking forward to the Umber Hulk at the very least.  I do have one from Harbinger, but a pair would be nice for some RPG encounters.  Also, a newly revised confusion effect for the mini for skirmish would be interesting.

Cheers
