    My favorite was the Gogiteth. It somehow reminded me to the spirit Koh in Avatar the Last Air Bender. I was thinking to do a subterranean adventure with a spin of a psychological horror story

    I don’t play Pathfinder but I’m a big fan of Wizkids’ DnD stuff...I really like how these sets typically include dungeon dressings and terrain! I wish Icons of the Realms would do the same. Fun review...good luck all!

    I'd have to say the Zombie Brute would be perfect for a Frankenstein-eque story gone wrong. A not so adept necromancer tries to create the perfect monster, but doesn't bring it to life so much as to un-life. Embed a ring of resistance: radiant somewhere in the corpse to make it that much harder to kill, but also a nice reward for the medicine savvy PC.

    I got a brick of these recently and was very impressed with the quality, in comparison to a lot of the past Icons of the Realms sets. I think that I had only gotten one Pathfinder Battles booster prior to this, but now I want to get some more City of Lost Omens boosters. Nice set, Wizkids!

    That gimmerling would be PERFECT for an adventure I'm going to run where a family of doppelgangers are blending in with the people of a merchant city. They were nomads that would settle for a bit, steal a few things and then move away, but this time the youngest one made friends with some urchins, so the two older ones are planning something that would enable them to stay in town and provide for themselves and the urchins

    Hey Theo, all those miniatures look great. The Duergar kept catching my eye. The Taskmaster pose holding the medallion is great. Going to look up that stitch golem stats, he was crazy looking. No miniature would go unused in that set.
    Thanks Theo & have a great day.

    I really like these videos. I’m get lost reading monster manuals so seeing the minis really helps visualise scenarios. At the moment I’m planning for a player to be missing for a couple of sessions. What an adventure it would be to have them stolen from the mangrove swamp by a Chuul where the party have to track them down and save him from the spawn that are preparing to devour them.

    That gogiteth mini is probably my favorite of this set. Considering I’m about to run an Underdark campign in the next couple weeks, this Eldritch horror would excel at scaring the life out of my players. If I got these minis I’d hope I could get one of those beasts. Luckily, we don’t have any arachnophobes at my table. Yet.

    @nathanielklee Před 4 lety

    The Leaf Leshy is one that I'm excited about as I've been homebrewing a Leshy race. It would tie well into one of my current player's character who is a wood elf sent out into the world to journey to and investigate the cessation of communication with a druid in another area: a leshy would potentially have been brought to life by said druid and aid the party in the arc (or even end up being a new PC).

  • @williamjgoins

    For me, this is Pathfinder's best set since maybe Crown of Fangs. Lots of cool, interesting mini choices (Dhampir! Angelkin! Wave Rider!) and the best dungeon dressing pieces ever, hands down. I don't think the paint job is quite as good as some of the older sets (put them next to Shattered Star or Skull & Shackles and you can see the difference), but still a big step up from Legendary Adventures. And guys, you don't get enough credit for giving us some useful lore as the minis are displayed - very interesting, and great for kicking off some story ideas! Thanks.

    17:23 - Chuul in Pathfinder are yet another Aboleth-evolved race, similar to Mimics and Cloakers. They indeed have little society but do serve the Aboleth/Alghollthu masters. One weird thing is the new mini having 3 legs, we speculated on the Minisgallery forum that someone misunderstood the illustration in the bestiary.

  • @ragenfluff6021
    @ragenfluff6021 Před 4 lety

    As I've been reading through the 2nd Bestiary guide, I came across "Crawling Hand" which I thought was a really cool idea. If I had the Brute Zombie, I would use him in my current campaign, and add in the ranged "hunk of meat" action from the Zombie Hulk, allowing the Zombie Brute a stat block for throwing his own arm at people (scale the damage down a bit... 2d6+4B, and scale the zombie brute up to a lvl 3 creature since I'm making him slightly more powerful). I would use one of the Pathfinder pawns to mark where the pawn fell, THEN I would roll initiative for a lvl -1 crawling hand, and use that to attack the PC's as well. It would only catch them off guard once, but it would be worth it.

  • @nekonokenshi4450
    @nekonokenshi4450 Před 4 lety

    My favorite mini would be Aroden as I would display him in a place of glory on my shelf. I hope that we'll get more minis of the deities so that a pantheon could be displayed, or at least the ascended deities. I am planning a campaign so most of these would get used to my party's detriment, like the mirror or the wheel, both of which would throw them for a loop. For actual use Aroden might be used in a mission that tosses them to a time when he still existed, though honestly since his death while confirmed was never (to my knowledge) explained I might bring him in as an effect of whatever magic 'killed him' that instead threw him through time to present day Golarion and now the whole realm would have to deal with repercussions of his reappearance. My wishlist will consist of Aroden, Norgorber, Darkside Mirror, Wheel of Misery, Starstone, Green Dragon, Thief Guildmaster, Swinging Scythe Blade, Enlarged Duergar, and the Iruxi Defender.

  • @zeke1521

  • @Dharmabum1074
    @Dharmabum1074 Před 4 lety

    Huge fan of the Wheel of Misery. I envision that being a wheel of fate for captured PCs. Perhaps a thieves guild punishment for outsider rogues with sticky fingers. The crowd roars as the wheel lands on lightning bolt, striking down the half-elven rogue. His boots smoke as the corpse is dragged off for an unceremonious dip in the town sewer. Can’t risk that they could ignite and start a fire.

The protohag changeling and Dhampire are also pretty cool, the zombie brute and stich skin golem/ scarecrow are also pretty neat. The more I think on it the more used many of these can have on just about be any game. I don't care for dinosaur minis at all as they are something anyone can find knockoffs for and I am scratching my head over a male harpy, that goes completely against their lore

    I don't collect the PF minis generally, but I'd love to get a squad of those Absalom watch minis. It would be perfect for any city, and it'd be nice to have minis with matching uniforms so your "city watch" isn't just a ragtag motley collection of random humanoid mins you have lying around. Also the Angelkin Redeemer and Knight of the Aeon Star would make great PC minis.

    That Gogiteth's got a bad case of "The Mask" face. Definitely nightmare fuel. Or the guy made of faces. In general I'm not personally a huge fan of pathfinder's style of characters. Though some are really cool. I'd be afraid of getting too many of the "watch" or "deurgar" minis. But there are a couple good and unique minis in this particular set. Plus dragon.

    I would definitely use the dungeon dressing for on warlock tiles

    I would use these in our DnD games. We will often use Pathfinder minies in our campaigns.

    I would love to make a plotline with the dhampir wizzard with a creepy mansion where the dhampir wizzard lives at the front of the door stands an undead guarding the door to the mansion. i have so many plans for al the minis in this set
