3.5 versions of Fiery Dragon's counters

Is there any chance you will be putting up web enhancements that could include 3.5 versions of at last some of the 3.0 sized counters from Counter Collections I-II, likethe hill giants, the dragons, etc.

Any plans for coming out with full-fledged 3.5 counter sets?

I also remember seeing one of the FDP folks post elsewhere that they had considered making a set that contained re-sized counters from the earlier packs, so this seems pretty likely to be accurate. Hopefully we'll get an official answer.

FWIW, I think this is a great idea -- and I'd happily add CC Gold to my already vast collection of FDP counters...

Hmm, interesting. I started that thread, but I never caught that response near the end about Crounter collection Gold. Sounds nice.

Counter Collection Gold

I expect this to be available next February. It'll come in a metal tin box, perfect for storing your counters and transporting them to your game. There will also likely be some surprise "Map Tiles" from Ed Bourelle. This deluxe product should cover every critter from the 3.5 Monster Manual. Also, these will be printed on stock that is 20% thicker than previous collections, and will be die-cut for easy separation.

We're also kicking around a 3.5 Upgrade series that'll just have the counters that have changed size since our initial product. These will likely not have the deluxe packaging, thicker cardstock, or die-cutting, but will be fully compatible with previous releases.

The Summoned Creatures counter collection will also be released next year, containing 3.5 sized versions of every creature from the Summon Monster and Summon Nature's Ally spell lists. That's a lot of creatures, I've found!

That's the quick "behind the scenes" answers.

Hope it gave you some ideas as to what's up.

Damn, looks like I'll finally break down and buy those counters I've been eying for a while, especially in a metal tin with thicker card stock.

Coming in a storage tin is a great idea, James. Looking forward to it.

This deluxe product should cover every critter from the 3.5 Monster Manual.

Including non-SRD ones (Mind flayers, Umber Hulks, etc.)?

All right! More counters, and die-cut, too!
Is Claudio going to be doing the artwork for these? His artwork has been spectacular on the counters already out, and I'd love to see his take on more monsters.

Of course, you could just ignore the (IMO dumb) 3.5 facing rules and stick with the 3.0 rules for facing. Nips the problem in the bud.

Cthulhu's Librarian -> Yes, I am the one to blame for the CC Gold artwork (and CP6, and...). In fact, most of the artwork is already done by now, and I am VERY pleased with the results. My favorites are the re-made mounts (griffons, hippogriffs, pegasi, inicorn, howler, manticore), the dire animals (tiger, bear, wolf, lion, rat, shark) and the WHALES!
