Legend
Hobgoblins - considering that they're supposed to be among the smartest and toughest of the Medium-sized humanoids, and thus a viable threat for quite a number of levels, there just aren't a hell of a lot of hobgoblin minis out there... And most of them are metal.
Ral Partha did a set of three for their old official AD&D line, there are two metal WotC hobgoblins and (four?) plastic ones out of all the sets of WotC prepaints, Reaper has a few modern-sized ones...
Agree on the hobgoblins. I'm not fond of most of he sculpts out there either. My favorites are Jason Wiebe's sculpts from Reaper, but I'm not big on the rest of the Reaper line hobgoblins.
A friend gave me a ton of the WOTC pre-painted hobgoblins. I repainted a couple, but again, not great sculpts.
The old GW hobgoblins with the stupid hats are some of the worst.
Most of the Hobgoblin illustrations have some sort of asian-influenced armor look including the current Monster Manual.
My solution is to buy a set of Old Glory Samurai - 30 miniatures in white metal for $36. Add fangs and bigger ears and paint up a whole regiment of hobgoblins that would look better than anything currently on the market!
