Who can resist the cuddly axe-wielding Werebear?

 

[Masquerade]

Irresistable indeed!

I'm hoping to get a Trumpet Archon, myself, although I can't imagine I would ever have a use for it in my game.

 

[Lord Foul]

The feral minotaur looks realy cool.

 

[the Jester]

Actually, I favor the steel predator.

 

[IronWolf]

There are several that look really cool. But for the sake of choosing just one.... I choose the Ogre Mage!

Who can resist the cuddly axe-wielding Werebear?

LOL. I think it looks pretty cheesy actually. It looks like a big teddy bear - not scary at all!

While the quality is definitely getting better, I'm not sure there are a lot of minis in this set I want. I like the devils (hezrou, barbed devil, chain devil), the ogre mage, pegasus, and dire wolverine but that's about it.

 

[Lord Morte]

The Hezrou, aka the Slaad impersonator. The sculpting on that one is just cool. Big, nasty and has a sense of muscular physicality. Everything the efreet mini isn't.

A close second is the mounted paladin, and third is the Djinni.

Added: Oooo, nearly forgot. On the subject of the Werebear it looks a lot nicer (as a mini) that the previous werebear mini WotC released. Reminds me of the Furbolgs from World of Warcraft.

 

[Agamon]

Mounted Paladin (even if he is left-handed) is the one I want. I agree that the Hezrou looks awesome.

Des Hanley, who drew the Mounted Paladin sketch, is left-handed (and bald). This explains many of his minis - but he's a great guy and a very good artist.

I managed to get the Ogre Mage, Mounted Paladin and Large Copper Dragon in my first seven boosters. (Yay!) There are a few real surprises in Angelfire - it really strikes me as a great set.

Cheers!

After 2 cases, just missing Ulmo Lightbringer, Archmage, Chain Devil, Ogre Mage, and the Orc Wolf Shaman. Got dupes on the Mounted Paladin, Stone Giant, Djinni, Large Copper Dragon, and the Red Slaad.
