KotS Monster Minis

[Olgar Shiverstone]

Now here's a question: are all of those critters currently available through the currently released DDM set, or do you have to go surf eBay to find a creature from a now-out-of-production set?

Were I planning KotS, I would have made sure to use monsters that were in the latest DDM release (or talk to the minis guys about adding KotS monsters), to ensure that the products have some linkage for the big 4E release.

Glancing at the list, no, they don't all exist yet. However, we don't know what some of them are (or look like even)... so there could be good proxies in prior sets. I was able to match up quite a few to sufficient ones in DDM lines however, but didn't take the time to write them down.

i am surprised they did not take the chance to release a set of non random minis with each module.

i think i would pay 30 bucks (maybe 40) for all the minis i need and seems like they could profit at that rate.

I second THIS.

I third this also...but until WotC throws down....

Well, those with keen eyes may have noticed me asking quite a few questions about the monster list for KotS.

That's all I'm saying.

My fellow DM has almost all of the D&D minis. So I went through and made this list. Some I was not sure of so they have more than one suggestion (mainly because I'm not sure about their description). I didn't finish quite a few of them.

Edit: These are from all the sets. I tried to take most of them from the newest set available.

If only someone would produce a cheap set of counters that you could print out and use for all the monsters in an adventure...

Thanks Joshua, awesome. I might just try and find some time at lunch to identify the set or number.

I noticed. And thank you!

That's outrageous!
