Anybody else seen or bought these yet? So far there is a gargantuan Black Dragon and a Truly massive colossal Red Dragon. I love the dragons. No longer will a minature skirmish with a great dragon involve a towel ( or something) to represent it's size.

Evidently wotc is releasing a new Icon every month and next month they are coming out with a D&D Dragon chess set. Finally wotc is doing stuff I'll actually pay or.


Some links for those interested:

Well It's not exactly coming from wotc, but I did get Ral Partha 10-462 "Riding the Cold Wind to Valhalla" pewter dragon 7 or so years ago, and I think it was nice. Sadly I never got around to assembling/painting it, because you have to drill parts for the supports, and I'm much too lazy for that. But I still have it laying around.

Way too cool. Just dusted my desk, sure enough there is a still in the box authentic Ral Partha Drangon Lance, "Huma's Silver Dragon", and in addition a "The Griffin Chariot".

Are these pieces making a come back?

Somewhere, it the deepest vowels of mine desk lays a scrap with some scribbles. Atop those scribbles sets a "lord" one in which in fact does wield one great sword known only as "Dragons Bane". Sliced and diced lizard on a stick anybody?

LOL, small world. [img]smile.gif[/img] I also bought that dragon 7 or so years ago, but I actually painted it, but somehow lost the little bucket that hangs below the dragon. I painted the bucket too, but lost it somewhere somehow, been so long ago I can't remember. Dragon has been sitting in a box ever since, until a few months ago when I re-found it, and decided to just use a necklace to hang the thing LOL. Hung it on a ficus tree plant in the living room.



Hard to find decent sized dragon models anymore. Nobody makes them like they used to. I remember you could buy a new one from Ral Partha or Citadel, etc. at least once a year. Miss those days!

Nice!

But I think the crossbow on the front of the bucket is a little redundant!

I'm actually getting ready to sell my entire collection of Warhammer stuff on eBay. A friend was over on sunday to show me how to get started.
