Yay! A Dire Rat!

Cheers!

Once the Planar Handbook is out, you might even find a use for this cool-looking mini as a good guy.

Ouch... sounds like they are trying to hook me for the Planar Handbook as well. I once had a bladeling PC (in the module where bladelings were introduced), a Cleric of Hextor if I recall. I originally thought they sounded like spiked kobolds then, and I still think it was one of the more interesting pre-gen characters I've been drafted into.

Now the dire rat is a great choice for a common!

Much better than catfolk in archfiends (bleh!).

 

[Psychic Warrior]

Yay! A common Lizardfolk!

And I love the Catfolk mini in AF. What else can I use to represent the cat people of Termana in my Scarred Lands game

Fair enough!

I just have 9 of the suckers (the most of any of the AF commons I own) that I don't have an immediate use for.

I don't like the picture of the Bladeling in MMII, but that mini just rocks. All of them do...and its great to finally see a Dire Rat!! I can't wait for these!

 

[KB9JMQ]

Yeah the rat is cool. Glad it is a common so we can get a good bunch of them.

Dire Rat

The Bladeling Rocks! And a cool-looking common Dire Rat is really great news. I'm surprised that its skirmish alignment is LE, however. I would have thought it would be CE or CE/LE.

A dire rat. Finally. This mini has been way too long in coming.
The detail on it is incredibly good... I'm curious if they can keep up
that quality on the actual minis.

A common lizardfolk is a good idea too. Too bad I've already got a ton of the lizardfolk fighters.

Sweet, the Bladeling rocks.
