| I would think the most useful ones for RPG (although I doubt play RPG, but I REALLY REALLY want to) would be-
Dragons
Fomorian
Giants | |

Although I REALLY want to see a Hellfire Wyrm mini... | |

| Most valued RPG-wise:
1. Treant (can double as a tree and useful in Sunless Citadel)
2. Fomorian (nice looking giant for my taste)
3. Glaberzu (can substitute demons - looks bad)
4. Red dragon (PCs usually meet chromatic dragons)
5. Cloud Giant (Can substitute good looking giants)
Most desired RPG-wise:
1. Elementals (I'd start with Air casted for easy fire repainting - see Crafter's corner)
2. Hydra
3. Black Pudding
4. Bebilith (can also be used as huge spider)
5. Nalfeshnee
The three I actually used (and where):
Treant (Sunless Citadel)
Glabrezu (City of the Spider Queen)
Nightwalker (City of the Spider Queen).

| I have used the Fomorians the most, three times. The Bulette is a close second. I have used a Treant once as a proxy for an Ironmaw, and 2 huge dragons as proxies for Yrthaks.
Edit: D'Oh, I've also used a Behir as himself.

You know, I keep thinking that after the new design team gets done with D&D 4e, D&D won't stand for Dungeons and Dragons anymore, because well, that's just not fun. It's old and stuffy. - Originally Posted by BabWryter on Kenzerco.com | |

The glabrezu sculpt is meh. He looks like a grinning idiot, but it is used often since it is a good demon proxy. | |

| I have used the T-rex before and the behir as a centipede proxy and thats about it. I plan on using the T-rex again very soon in my campaign, and will probably squeeze in Fomorians and the Glabrezu before its over.
The Treant is the one I don't think I will ever use, unless its an evil one.
The ones I can't wait for would be the other dragons and probably an earth elemental. | |

| | I know a guy who would say the most useful fig is the treant. Not only has he used treants often in encounters, but he has so many he always uses them as real trees in forest encounters. | |

| In my tabletop games I've seen the treant see use more often than any of the other huges. Of course, we've been running a somewhat forest/druid-based game, which explains the reason why.
The huge red dragon looks cool, but it's one of those creatures you only whip out for a special occasion, not something that sees regular play (at least, not in most campaigns).
I agree with wanting to see some huge elementals and a hydra. A huge constrictor snake (doubles as huge viper as well). A yrthak. Other dragons. A remorhaz. Black pudding. Bebelith. Aboleth...yeah, that's mostly it as far as the most useful stuff. | | | |
