So...this is the new Ettercap?:(

[Zaukrie]

No, but that was the opinion of both my wife and me. If it doesn't look like a female, is it one for minis purposes?

If it doesn't look like a female, is it one for minis purposes?

Well, harpies are supposed to be ugly.

And I've seen some ugly women that I've accidentally called "dude" before.

The skinny frame and large head of the sahuagin cause it to resemble a murloc from World of Warcraft, though the latter are not scaly, having a shinier, froglike skin texture.

Are you sure it's a male? I can see them simply not wanting to make the breasts incredibly obvious on a miniature.

It has a male figure regardless of breasts. The whole point of sculptures is to show the figure not hide it. This goes all the way back to the Greeks.

 

[Wolfspider]

Yeah, I'm not so impressed with the ettercrap myself.

Personally, I think most of those minis are pretty ugly. I do like how the ogre has changed, though.

 

[Mortellan]

That's the saddest collection I've seen from D&DM. Star Wars minis have to be made by the same people and their stuff doesn't look half as churned out as these.

 

[DaveMage]

Wow!

Craptacular doesn't even begin to describe these....

That's the worst dryad, harpy, and ettercap I've ever seen.

What the heck are they thinking?!?!?

 

[Moon-Lancer]

i feel that these minis have regressed from what wizards target audience wants. This is the kind of stuff that drove away potential players.

 

[Moon-Lancer]

the fire elemental and nightmare are cool though, along with the demon weapon swarm and the blade spider, but most of these lack a feeling of the kind of fantasy that excites me. they feel dull, and full of ism

 

[Mortellan]

Indeed its a turn off. And while they are regressing, they can go back to school on how to mold plastic weapons that aren't warped out of the box and thereby ruining what slim chance you had at a good mini in the first place.
