There is a fantastic proxy in this set...Massassi Sith Mutant.
Hes Medium Size. Hes Red. He has a Halberd type weapon. He has a spikey beard.
Uncommon Bearded Devil! :)
The only creature/monster is the Gundark.
Mas Amedda is a good proxy as a Teifling Wizard or maybe even an Archdevil if his skin is painted red and robes are painted darker colors. Also the 2 horn things that hang from his head could be painted to look like part of the hem of his robes or a collar. | |

| The Arcona Smuggler might have a chance for D&D RPG crossover. Also, the Varactyl Wrangler may have possibilities.
What are those weird things on the side of the Gundark?
I must say that the gallery looks phenomenal compared to whatever poster was shown previously. | |

| | Nice. A fair number of the generic "person with gun" minis are common/uncommon. This is very helpful for my d20 Apocalypse campaign. Sith Trooper Commander, Old Republic Commander, Old Republic Soldier... I'll want bunches of those, and probably a Queen Amidala too. | |

| | I think if you painted the Gundark red, he'd looks very much like a bearded devil, sans pole-arm. | |

| The things on the side of the gundark are smaller arms.
Between the color and the 4 arms this thing is very similar to a Abyssal Evicerator huh? | |

| Wow there is a ton of KotoR stuff in there. Even some of the non-uniques are modeled after KotoR characters.
The Jedi Sentinal is Visas Mar. The Jedi Guardian looks like Atris. The Sith Assault droid is from KotoR. The Kedi Consular looks like the female romance character, whose name I can't remember for obvious reasons. The Sith Trooper Commander is from KotoR, as are the Sith soldiers. The Old Republic troops are from KotoR.
I count twelve total KotoR minis out of the set. | |
It's deja vu all over again. | |

| | i would like 2 Gundarks and 2-4 sith mutants they look good for RPG... it would be cool to get a darth maul from this set but he is VR and not that important ($30 or so is to much) | |

| I think that the Jedi Padwans and Jedi Weapon Masters could be modified to look like peasants/bar patrons for FRPG games....
Darth Bane would make an awesome evil D&D cleric if you convert that saber into a fantasy melee weapon....
Corran Norn would look pretty darn farmer fantsy-esque with a shovel instead of a light saber...
Both the MSM and Gundark could easily be converted into bearded devils... | |

| Ah but there's the little known fact that Chuck Norris was in fact Robin Hood. There was some time travel involved there.[:)]

| Yeah the Gundarks are one of my favorite uncommons from this set. Between them and the Sith Mutants you have a set that is pretty usfull to fantasy rpgs as well.
