| Here's the list of stuff from Thunderspire Labyrinth:
Bugbear (we have many to choose from) Hobgoblin Soldier/Archer/Warcaster/Chief (we have many to choose from) Goblin Sharpshooter (Goblin Sneak. A resculpt would be nice) Human Bandit (Human Bandit or Human Thug. Again, resculpts would be nice) Dire Wolf (we have at least three options) Duergar Guards/Theurge/Scout/Champion/Shock Trooper (we have many to choose from) Orc Berserkers (Orc Berserker plus other options) Orc Raiders (Orc Raider plus other options) Arbalesters (medium-sized arcane ballistas. Would make a nice uncommon) Ogre Savage (lots of ogres to choose from) Wights (several wights to choose from) Spined Devils (recently produced set) Tiefling Heretic (several options to choose from but would make a nice new uncommon/rare) Bronze Warder (Bronze Golem) Barlgura (Barlgura) Cavern Chokers (Choker--produced many years ago and could use a resculpt) Ghoul (a few options) Phalagar (new monster) Hyenas (two options) Gnoll Huntmaster/Marauder/Demonic Scourge (lots of gnolls to choose from) Dire Boar (Dire Boar or Thundertusk Boar) Tiefling Darkblades (already have tieflings but could be a neat new uncommon/rare) Boneshard Skeleton (Boneshard Skeleton) Evistro (Carnage Demon) Young Green Dragon (Young Green Dragon or Large Green Dragon) Bonecrusher Skeleton (possibly the Minotaur Skeleton although a new, large humanoid (i.e. human-shaped) skeleton would be nice) Norkers (new monster) Enigma of Vecna (new monster) Imp (Imp) Human wizard (several options to choose from) Dragonborn wizard (yes, please) Deathlock Wight (Deathlock) Rotwing Zombies (yes, please) Dwarf Bolter (Dwarf Sharpshooter) Human Berserkers (several options) Gelatinous Cube (Gelatinous Cube) Wraiths (Wraith/Lurking Wraith/Shadows) Rage Drake (Rage Drake) Ettercap Webspinner (Ettercap/Ettercap Webspinner) Fire Bat (Fire Bat) Kruthik Hive Lord/Kruthik Adult (yes, please) Troglodyte Curse Chanter/Impaler/Mauler (I can probably cover these between different trog sculpts but more trogs that don't look like the bonecrusher would be welcome) Angel of Valor (Angel of Valor) Goblin Blackblade (Goblin Blackblade)
So, new minis we don't already have: Arbalester Norker Kruthik Adult Rotwing Zombie Dragonborn Wizard Enigma of Vecna Bonecrusher Skeleton Phalagar
Not a huge list. Also, arbalesters and kruthik adults have now shown up in 2 WotC adventures. Methinks they're strong candidates for Demonweb.

| Ok, someone needs to explain the Kruthik hate. I hate them because I have too many of them since they were commons in Death Knell when I was hunting a Beholder, but I haven't seen a single good thing said about them. Is there some D&D history thing? Or is it an old D&D versus New D&D, like how some people loathe Warforged & Dragonborn? No offense, I'm just curious and it occurs to me I've never asked. -jared | | | |

1) I don't like the art for them in the MM2, they look like cr@p and not in a good way. 2) Well in 3rd ed we already had two templates that represented these critters, the Fiendish or Half-Fiend template. 3) Yeah a little of it for me is an old D&D thing. They look more like something from a sci-fi horror game. 4) If I want critters who look like they are from a sci-fi or horror game I'll either (a)play one or (b) use some Far Realm stuff 5) It was my WTF or Wrackspawn mini from Deathknell. The figure looked like much like the MM art..... and was not desired by me.

| Cthulhufnord seems to have nailed the reasons for kruthik hate. I think the big ones are a crappy 3.x write-up /mediocre 3.x artwork and a horrendous paintjob.
After repainting almost a dozen of the buggers I'm happy to report the sculpt is much better than you'd think under the WTF common paintjob. Also, the 4e write-up is far more interesting and the 4e artwork is better. Seems like kruthiks got better with a new edition.
Personally, I'd be very happy to see both a kruthik adult (uncommon) and kruthik Hive Lord (rare) mini in Demonweb. Granted, I could very well be in the minority  | | Knight Warlord a.k.a.
