(likely) 3,5, and 6 will be rare. Either 4 or 13 will be rare and the other will be uncommon. 12 is large. This leaves one uncommon. my 2 cents | | Champion of Eludecia, Succubus Paladin mounted on Vrock

| My bets:
Aspect of Tiamat (Huge Rare) Mounted Black Dragon (Huge Rare) Blue Dracolich (Huge Rare) Release X # 16 (Huge Rare)
Release X # 11 (Huge Uncommon - maybe rare - hoping rare)
Huge Fire Elemental (Huge Uncommon) Bluespawn Godslayer (Huge Uncommon) Huge Fiendish Spider (Huge Uncommon) Purple Worm (Huge Uncommon) Relase X # 13 (Huge Uncommon)
I'm hoping that Preview X 1 and 3 are large figures ... as they could account for our remaining 2 huges.
That leaves room for 1 rare + (1 rare or uncommon).

| | Actually, I could see the Elephant Rider being an uncommon. SWM had the Tusken Raider on Bantha as a Huge Uncommon in Universe. Of course, they always had VRs to help balance out the overall expense, but...I remain (foolishly) hopeful that whatever it is will be uncommon. The set needs a really cool Huge Uncommon, because the Purple Worm and Godslayer just ain't doing it for me. The Fire Elemental is nice, but...having only one of six huges that I want in multiples doesn't bode well for the set, in my opinion. | | | |

| If the preview X mini #16 is what I think it might be, I'm seriously siding on never keeping one (trading away for something I want).
I have never encounted one, nor will I ever use such a thing. Huge elephants (I would assume the shapes to be tusks) are something I tend to avoid (except as a food source for colosaal dragons!

| I think there are 12 already revealed (sort of),
in no order:
1:howling dragon 2:dracolich 3:purple worm: 4:godslayer 5: fire elemental 6:mastadon w/ rider 7:aspect of tiamat 8:(huge) giant (#11 in preview X) 9:(huge) creature w/ club (#13 in preview X) 10: (huge)red horned lizard (look closely, it is on a huge base, it's just smaller than the other huges, think bulette) 11: (huge) fiendish spider (asuming the hype is true) 12: black dragon w/ rider (asuming it is in the set)
thats all 12. | | | |

I would prefer an Aboleth, Nalfashee, Hydra and/or another elemental in the last space. I also would rather the Bluespawn Godslayer be replaced with one of these.

| | The mounted sorcerer on a black dragon is most likely rare since it costs something like $9.95 along WITH your subscription to Dragon. That would be one damn expensive uncommon (eventhough the repaint would have an even lower distribution than a rare from the regular set, I still would doubt that it is an uncommon sculpt based on the asking price). | | Champion of the Bone Naga (There's just so much roleplaying to be done with a large skeletal snake!) | |

| I'm pretty happy with the Huge selection so far. If there was a Huge dragon that was good, I'd be even happier tho. I want there to at least be one Huge dragon thats regular. Also it would help out the Good factions a little bit in skirmish.
I mostly worry about the Uncommon slots, since its those that will cause the biggest headaches. Paying $20 for a booster, you want to make sure you get your money's worth. So I want to see very good peices for the Uncommons since I'll be getting a lot of them. The Godslayer so far is the only one that has annoyed me, but I can deal with it if I have to. | | Champion of a Knight of Takhisis/Knight of Neraka | |

| | I hate to break it to you guys but that "red spawn" is a huge, one of my browsers is safari, which gives the neat little trick of click & drag while still holding a "shadow" image. I hovered the image over the large bases and no dice, I hovered it over the huge bases, perfect fit (both length & hight). | | | |

| If you look in different Galleries for the sets you will see Larges that are the size of mediums, etc. So I'm not exactly sold on it *has* to be a Huge. Then again some of this may be because I would probably freak out if another Dragonspawn was Huge. It would be a horrible day =/

| If this is the list, this would be my reaction:
Aspect of Bahamut - Blech! Aspect of Tiamat - Blech! Black Dragon with rider - Double blech!!!! Dracolich - Yea! Giant on Mammoth(preview x?) Meh. Eldritch Giant(preview x?) - Meh.
Uncommons: Purple Worm - O.k. Bluespawn Godslayer - Blech! Huge Fiendish Spider - O.k. Huge Fire Elemental - Yea! Mountain Troll(preview x?) - O.k. mystery mini - ?
That's two Yea's!, three O.k.'s, two Meh's, one unknown, three Blech's! and one Double blech! Overall, that is not good at all for this set of huges.

My reactions are pretty much the same, the only huge rare I'll be gunning for is one dracolich, it's thats it! Purple worm, huge Fire Elemental both freakin' sweet (although stats will have the final say on all of these). I really don't think an Aspect of Bahamut will be in this set. | | | |
