I feel like were creatures take on the personality of the creatures which I think would make them somewhat more similar
Jesus, Why Does Everything Have to Be In Ravenloft?! Can’t we Just Have a Setting full of Creatures not Connected to The Plane of Dread for once!
As a dinosaur nerd I love you for the “not quite a dinosaur” call-out!
Love this set! There are far too many Dinosaurs (and associated Prehistoric reptiles) for me to not buy a Brick!
I love how many times our complaints align XD
-pteranodon and dimetrodon not being dinosaurs
-Medusas being actually gorgons
-rarities… ok, serious talk, why is a CR 17 a common and a harpy a rare?
I also don't understand why pteranodon is a medium creature… their wingspan could reach 7m in width!
Also also… the triceratops is stright out ripped from the stock art for the JP/JW triceratops, down to the pose.
Love the hyena (you know I'm a sucker for gnolls & co), the prehistoric creatures and, honestly, most monster!
Kruthik, bulette, yuan-tis, RUST MONSTER, good ole giant bugs… even that wyvern looks cool. I love how 5th edition gave them that cobra-like head (although it could be decieving: wyverns have venomous tails, not bites… but I'm not gonna argue with the rule of cool, really a great design).
All things aside, I really like this set, looks interesting! But wizkids should really do something for those floppy weapons… maybe add metal wiring inside? Or leave it separate from the mini, in the package, so they won't risk getting bent by clashing with other minis in the box?
I know it's an easy fix, but I always thought that you shouldn't have to meddle with something that should come out of the box ready-to -play for having it to look how it should be intended to look, does it make sense?
Candlekeep Mysteries has a rather rad desert themed adventure; Alkazaar's Appendix is set in the desert for it's entire run, with desert themed encounters, sandstorms, ancient ruins, dragons and all… including an interesting moral choice towards the end that will change the ending, depending what the players want to do.
Just another boring set of minis. The beetle swarm looks good enough if the players have to cross boiling pit or tar. I wish WOTC would make a Warband or The Horde set where its just Goblin kind mounted, on foot, shamans. Another its just a set of practically every creature that can be undead or just skeletons.
Thanks again for another great video guys! Another great looking set, starting to fall behind but man you giysvare giving me alot of stuff to look forward to. Travis send shis love and awe over this set
They just keep releasing fugly, derpy shit instead of focusing on new sets of WarLock Tiles, like the anticipated sewer set or woodland set… and no one understands why… smh
Hi Theo! I am in complete agreement that I’d love to see some warbands of the playable character types! A Halfling one would be epic! You should put a bug in their ears! ✌️☮️
I love this set because it fills in some of the little niche monsters that I have yet to see in others. They are really knocking it out of the park with their releases lately. ✌️☮️
Theo, in my campaign, if you say a bad pun, you suffer 1d10 psychic pun damage. By my count, you took about 4d10 pun damage. 😂😂😂
Best set I've seen in a long time, irrespective of the warped swords. Great review as always, will definitely be getting some of the singles in the after market; I despise blind boxes.
I want this set just for Gorthox 😂. But I have Talos in a campaign I'm thinking about
I LOVE quite a few of these.. Chimera, Thri-kreen, Were figures, Bulette, Dragonborn, Napga and Insect Swarm "Wasps"!!!!
I would normally agree with a swarm of wasps being immune to piercing and slashing damage, however after watching that one guy on tik tok cut wasps out of the air with scissors I have to disagree
Nah a kangaroo chimera would suck It's hard enough trying to avoid regular kangaroo on tge road
I'm definitely picking up some of the "not dinosaur" dinosaurs from the after market, thank you!
Come on wizkids, where's a dragonborn ranger already!
I like the wasp swarm. Would like to see similar swarm techniques on more wizkids minis 👌🙏
Lamia mini is dope 👌
The large base Naga is awesome!
The weretiger is forever crit fail with the scimitar to the face 😂
Same disliking of harpys 😂
I like this set 👌
" Nagpa, plotting ways to bring civilizations down." – so they are Social Media Venture Capitalists?
Great script writing with the accurate paleontology and Pliny the Elder references. 👍
"Real difficulties can be overcome; it is only the imaginary ones that are unconquerable." -Theodore N. Vail
Very nice review as always, Theo! I need those dragonborn minis and that chimera, and maybe that triceratops at least. Though it seems you missed the mini for the Therosi(?) Chimera in the comparison of previous chimera minis. I only mention this as the Theros book has the chimera at 1 CR higher, gives them spell turning against 4th-level spells or lower, and has accompanying build-a-chimera rules for added customization. Very handy to have.
Keep up the great work, and I look forward to your next review!
Wonderful set and actually has many minis I’ve been wanting and the rarity of them likely means I even get multiple of the ones I want to have a few of and one of the ones I one need one like the kruthiks ive been meaning to get a hive worth of them and the dragon born look great
Kind of Meh on this set. A few classic creatures(though some are just resculpts) that I might consider grabbing singles of and depending on how much it costs… might grab Gorthok for my Ice Spire/Lost Mines Campaign.
"Success is … knowing your purpose in life, growing to reach your maximum potential, and sowing seeds that benefit others." –John C. Maxwell
I was thrilled when they announced this set. But most of these minis look pretty bad to me. The paint jobs look either bland or just straight up bad. We finally get some desert-based creatures like the Camel and the quality looks like something you get from those quarter toy machines in the vestibule of a store. They might as well have just made a Camel pog and saved some paint.. Speaking of bad or lazy paint jobs, I’m so tired of WizKids doing these nice sculpts of bigger minis up with one base color and skipping any sort of wash or other treatment to give it respectable detail. Some of those dinosaurs look so bad.. And what’s up with all the minis done on one base size up? I get it for the dragons and other Huge minis upscaled to Gargantuan and sold as individual premium pieces. But regular Large minis converted to Huge? In my opinion this is WizKids running out of Huge minis to make, but needing to fill Huge sets in blind boxes. But what bothers me most is how bad most of these Rare minis are. From the Medium to Huge Rares, most of these look like a noticeable downgrade from other sets. How are they going to put out yet another Chimera but sporting such a messy paint job that it looks like one of the worst Chimeras we’ve had? I don’t know what this strategy is, but my guess is they are looking to make their non-blind box sets and pieces more enticing by downgrading the quality of the minis in their blind sets.
Finally, what’s up with D&D? Could they not pull together cooler desert-like creatures than this for such a set? I’d give anything for the Pathfinder Battles line to get the same sort of treatment as the Icons gets with regards to amount of minis. Aside from their creatures being more interesting mechanically and lore-wise within the game itself, they actually have plenty of cool and unique monsters that have yet been made.
Anyways, thanks for a great look at this massively disappointing set. It looks like it’s yet another set where I wait it out for the inevitable massive price cuts on bricks or a case, or simply cherry-pick what I need.
I usually don’t care about the none directly connect set WizKids releases, but this one is pretty freaking awesome. I think I will have to pick up a brick or two
Honestly, this is a very good set for a new DM.
I like that the Basilisk is a Medium sized creature. If it had been based on the original myth, they would've been Tiny, but I also like that not all dangerous creatures are enormous in size. 😉
The Swarm of Beetles is straight up bad. It looks like lumpy oil. Consider the DDM swarm minis: Google "Rot Scarab Swarm" to see how this could've been done better!
On the other hand, the Swarm of Wasps is really good!
The Lamia is very nice, and probably one of the most interesting minis in this set. Actually weird that it's only Uncommon!
The Camel is a really nice addition! There aren't many camel minis out there!
Also, I wholeheartedly agree with you in regards to the naming of Gorgons and "Medusas".
The Harpy should've switched rarity with the Lamia.
Yes, that Yuan-ti is the best kisser! (Or was that "hisser"..? No..?)
"Gorthok the Thunder Boar" is my new band name.
YOU are a really likeable guy 🙂 Best regards from Germany ❤
