Hmmm, I like!

that’s an old school return on the aesthetics to something more medieval with these characters. Almost everything WotC has released recently heavily borrows on 19th century, even early 20th century imagery and concepts (including the titular carnaval/circus/theme park). I do hope there is more to it than 80s character appearance however. I’m not sure if I really like the « Victorian-with-no-guns » vibe I get from recent products.

I really dislike the aesthetics of the Wizkids miniatures when it comes to ones I might use for PCs. The other day I was looking for an armored knight and I just didn't like anything from their selection. I really dig their monster miniatures though.
