Sorceror Dragon looks much better. Fire is more strongly oriental.

Not sure about the wyvern-like sculpts.

Looks like the new Sorceror will be a must buy for me in Oct (more likely November for stores). Out of Dragons I, the Komodo was the strongest for DnD use (4 distinct legs, bat wings).

These look cool. I bought all of series one except Sorc. Clan because I didn't like the sculpt. A little cheesy IIRC.

Wow... that Fire Clan Dragon is SUPER cool.

I think I may just have to get me one of those. Here's hoping I remember come October.

We got all of the first series for our group.

I am largely impressed by this collection as well. A few not so impressive - but overall they remain excellent quality. In terms of price/quality - these sculpts were an absolute STEAL when released in the first series.

I think the only collectible toys I had ever purchased before McFarlane's Dragons was one of "Diablo" when Diablo 2 came out. I know that others in my gaming group had also always ignored these sorts of things before McFarlane's Dragons.

Hopefully - he keeps the price low again.

Looks even more chicken like than the first.

Hmm, I actually like the first series a LOT more. I think the only one I really like is the Komodo dragon. The sorcerer isn't bad either.

Sota has made a few nice monsters. Many of which wound up not getting made.

Ah! I was afraid that the series 2 dragons would look too much like the series 1 figures, these hardly look like the same species of dragon at all! I need to get that water clan dragon, my gods he is fugly! I can see it using Swallow Whole on small boats and crew... (Judging by the number of exclamation points, I guess I liked most of what I saw...)

The only ones that I do not like are the berserker and eternal clan figures.

These are great. I love the Komodo one.

And when those Lovecraft toys come out, I'll give a free Malhavoc pdf to the first person who emails me with a link that I can use to order them (monte at montecook dot com)--otherwise, I'll forget all about them between now and whenever.
