That is one ugly miniature. It doesn't even look much like DDM to me. It looks more like a cheap piece of rubbish that fell out of someone's Christmas cracker. I'll give that one a miss.
At least it's a relief to read that the Lamebreak is the one from the last set, and not another hasty resculpt. | | Champion of the Bodak.Knight of the Aboleth.Squire of Gnomes. Friend of (Non-Ugly) Fey.

| | 19 Oct 2007 10:31 AM | | Kinda looks like something that fled the demise of Dreamblade if you ask me...I certainly hope that the neon green/brilliant red sword is just due to bad lighting. It certainly clashes. Glad I don't have the folks who painted that one picking out my clothing in the morning.

| | 19 Oct 2007 11:26 AM | | I really don't like that sword. I can't decide if I want the mini to be rare so I don't get many or if I want it to be an uncommon so it doesn't waste a rare slot.

Orc Rhino-rider isn't thrilling.
That;s an Orc banebreak..... Githyanki was my first impression as well.
I doubt it is a Githyanki because all the artwork I've ever seen for Githyanki portrayed them wearing civilized clothing / armor, wielding their "silver swords". They also have no nose to speak of and often have flaps of skin hanging from their elbows (ah, the cover of the old Fiend Folio...).
Anyways, this guy's likely human, or a human-like Yuan-Ti / cultist. The blade strikes me as something maybe like Chitin, or crystal - perhaps a psionic mini?
