We're about midpoint in the previews for AtG, how are you liking it so far? Just curious where the community stands, as it seems to me everyone is split pretty hard right now.

You can post your reasons below, maybe it's the shiny metallic paints, the choice of sculpts, the scale...

Wish the paints weren't so shiny, but I like a little over half of the sculpts so far.

There's only one thing I've seen so far that I haven't liked (but I also don't fully dislike it; I'll still take one), making me the first 100%-ish.

Only 4-5 minis so far that I want for sure with a couple more on the fencr pending what they look like painted. I wish I wasn't, but I'm in the less than 25% bracket. Alas, I had high hopes for the huges in this set too...

Two thousand years later, Earth is reborn...
A strange new world rises from the old: a world of savagery, super science, and sorcery. But one man bursts his bonds to fight for justice! With his companions Ookla the Mok and Princess Ariel, he pits his strength, his courage, and his fabulous Sunsword against the forces of evil.
He is Thundarr, the Barbarian!

Some of the things I see I'm very meh about. Chain Golem looks goofy as all get out. I'd say the Elder Dragons are the best thing so far and the little Gnaw Demon is amusing. Don't really need yet another Fire Giant.

going with less than 25%. I just have dont have a use for a lot of mins previewed. i do like the kobold,ooze,dragonborn and a few others that weve seen from the ebay guy. going to buy just singles this time which will save me a ton of money. Im skipping the prerelease based solely on the quality of the huges.

It's not so much that I hate the minis, though there are a couple stinkers for sure, it's that the majority I've seen so far I only really want one of.

Chain golem, Air/Cyclone looking thing, Huge Carrion Crawler, All of the titans, the Dragonborn and all the PC/NPC types...I just can't see myself using or wanting more than one. Especially the huges so far. How often in an RPG setting are PCs going to run into multiple Elder Dragons? I like some of these minis, but I just don't want that many of them in multiples. It's singles market for any I pick up for sure, which may be better since my allowable budget for spending on my hobbies is at an all time low. I'll probably trade for the few rares I really want and hopefully pick up the commons I need cheaply.

Of course, there's been a couple of really great commons/uncommons in this set too, which is why I'm excited. I can always use another kobold. I hear folks saying that we have too many kobolds already, but my opinion on monsters like kobolds, goblins, orcs, etc. is that I'd rather have a huge assortment of them so I don't have to use multiples of the same mini when running a group encounter. I'll always be happy to get more, though some of the sculpts/paint on some have made me a little sad admittedly.

The other common that has me excited right now is the Ochre Jelly. I kind of wish it was large (though I do own one of the old OJs) but a part of me is perfectly happy with medium. This is one common that may see repaints into other colors, converted into other ooze type monsters, modded into a small shoggoth, etc... More oozes, fungi and slimes please WoTC!

I even like the Dwarf with a sword, though I will admit I only want one. It's nice to see races with alternate weapons other than the stereotypical ones. Having a dwarf that isn't wielding a hammer or an axe is nice. Now if we can just get an elf with a battle axe, a couple more female dwarves, dwarves with a bow or a staff, more PC minis with unusual or exotic weapons, etc. PC/NPC types are OK for me when they aren't one that I already own mutiple different versions of already.

I do like the Fire Giant, though the paint isn't as good as the GoL versions. I do wish his sword was a little more like the older minis for sure, but this is one rare I wouldn't mind eventually owning a couple of...granted I am kinda bummed he wasn't an uncommon.

All in all, this set is most likely going to be like the last few sets for me - with a few minis I really want, a few I really don't care about, a few I really don't like (though I'll still pick up at least one of to complete the set eventually), and several nice uncommons/commons that I'll be happy with. Hopefully we'll eventually see another Blood War set where the majority of the minis will absolutely rock, but I'll not hold my breath...

I'm less then 50% this set is up there as one of worse so far, next to War of the Dragon Queen. I love huge minis just really dislike their choices...why is it so hard to get it right when the people have been stating for years what huges they want!!! Sad!

Lol, too funny   Though I find myself less inclined to post anywhere, I always want to say 4e sucks when at Hordelings and hey guys it's not that bad  when here.  Love DDmspoilers and the folks there, slacking much less when it comes to posting.  I think my firewall or lack thereof has more to do with that, or maybe cause as many opinions aren't covered.

The huge white dragon, the dwarf with sword, and the fire giant are the only must-haves for me so far.  Other than the dragons, the huges are disappointing.

I'm a more 50+% kind of guy, generally easy to please. There are always "stinker" rares, which I collect eventually,
I just hate pulling them from boosters.
I personally might have picked different selections for the huges but I will probably end up liking most of them.

I voted 'less than 25%'. If not for the June and Beyond preview, I'd have been looking for a 'less than 10%' option.

It really must take effort to come up with a selection of huges as bad as this one, and the emphasis on dragonyawn isn't improving my opinion.

Maxminis is generally more negative.

Hordelings is generally more positive.

WOTC is generally more batcrap insane.

DDMSpoilers is generally populated by five people.

My own take on the 4, both positive as well as negative aspects:

Maxminis: Laid-back and the original core of the community, but not allways on target.

Hordelings: Professional and great for skirmish, but too serious.

WotC: Official reps present for feedback, but a lot of weirdos

DDMSpoilers: Good atmosphere, spoilers, and the VWC, but a bit desolate.

Hordelings as the more competive skirmish site.

Hmm... the DDM community as a whole is arranged oddly among different commuinities.

Maxminis is generally more negative.

Hordelings is generally more positive.

WOTC is generally more batcrap insane.

DDMSpoilers is generally populated by five people.

My own take on the 4, both positive as well as negative aspects:

Maxminis: Laid-back and the original core of the community, but not allways on target.

Hordelings: Professional and great for skirmish, but too serious.

WotC: Official reps present for feedback, but a lot of weirdos

DDMSpoilers: Good atmosphere, spoilers, and the VWC, but a bit desolate.  

D.


My own take on the 4, both positive as well as negative aspects:

Maxminis: Laid-back and the original core of the community, critical, but not unfriendly or hating.

Hordelings: Professional and great for skirmish, but too serious and cold.

WotC: Official reps present for feedback, but a lot of weirdos, unfriendly and very big.

I voted for more than 50.

And there is too few poll choices.
