The year: 1994. From out of space comes a runaway planet, hurtling between the Earth and the Moon, unleashing cosmic destruction! Man's civilization is cast in ruin!
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!

| This is by far the worst set I have ever seen!! Only a couple I even half-way want and nothing at all really exciting to drive me to buy.
I do like the new roper. But the new owlbear is terrible and we didn't need another. And why another Ice Devil? Another medium xorn? Like the Huge Red sculpt, but the paint looks just nasty.
They aren't even trying anymore...guess they figure we will buy anything they toss out. Sales should tank based on the quality of this set. They would have to blown off trying on a huge set, there were so many cool things they could have done too. | |

Actually, I think it turned out ok - good. Not stellar, not horrible, but ok - good.

| | Definitely not the best set ever (and the selection of huges is very hit and miss), but I'll purchase some, especially since I didn't start collecting until well after the early sets became unavailable. I do have to agree that the sheer number of resculpts (especially of recently released minis) is unfortunate. | |

Agreed. Not sure why we need another Owlbear and Ice Devil since the art didn't change that much. Could have saved those for another year or so. | |

| | Granted the Owlbear "does" look really good. Plus technically, it did eat Vaarsuvius... | |

| | Not that interested in this set. So many rare PC minis, the decent looking monster minis are redo sculpts that I don't need. The hobgoblin, the cockatrice, hellwasp, gnaw demon, and ochre jelly are the only c/unc that I am happy to see. The fire giant is the only rare I will definitely get, maybe the goul king. The fire titan and umber hulk are nice. I'm sure most are happy to see the huge white. The huge earth and air elementals are needed. Treant looks ridiculous. Looks like I'll be saving money this go around. I quit buying sets a while back because there was so much in them that I don't want. I can see I'll be buying singles for a long time. | |

| | Alright this makes no sense- both dragonborn minis in the rare slot- I thought this was supposed to be a PC race- why the flarg do they keep making it ahrd to get any? I'm starting a 4th ed. camp. and already 2 PCs have claimed to want to run dborn PCs- this really does not make sense- Who do I have to write to lodge an official complaint. | |

| | They'll be cheap rares, as most ppl will only need/use 1, IF they even use dragonborn. I wouldn't sweat it. | |

| | It's interesting from the set list there aren't any good minis/creatures, I know the don't have the same utility for RPG as bad guys but I expected a few every set. It will be interesting to see how many, if any, they put into future sets. | |

I'd be surprised that if they cost over 5$ when the initial buzz dies down.
But then again, I just sold a WotDQ Dragonborn Fighter on ebay for 20$+. | |

| I think that Dragonborn is the best one though. As more Dragonborns come out, the price for them will be less and less. Also I figure I can use the Troglodyte Captain and other minis for dragonborn if need be, so I don't sweat needing a bunch of different ones.
I do want to see a female dragonborn though, I don't think any of the new ones are. | |

| | Yeh, male fighters all 3. They need a rogue, cleric, spell caster type and females. | |

Agreed. Not sure why they have all 3 as fighters.
