    This set is pretty awesome, I normally like playing goblins as misunderstood people who are suprisigly hospitable but there would be nothing wrong with a classic goblin hoard as villians...in fact I smell a goblin civil war coming to a table

    Great set. I'm thinking in re run Thomb of Annihilation just to use this amazing variety of goblins. Maybe a one shot could be very interesting focused in a complex goblin community. Theo, what about the size comparison with D&D medium size minis? Being a little bit bigger than D&D small minis I wonder if still looks small enough.

      @TheGallantGoblin  2 роки тому

      Yeah, when it comes to minis there’s a wide variance in what folks consider acceptable. Maybe it’s my generally lackluster eyesight, but mold lines have never much bothered me. For others, they can be deal breaking. That’s why I show you the minis up close so you can draw your own opinions. :-) -Theo

    You should do an update video with the new Goblin civil encounter! Really liked these goblins but went with the others since the spider was more on par with what we had going in our campaign. Now I’m adding these thanks to the motivation of that new encounter that I already have use for. Also got me some Grungs to have a smaller encounter leading up to these guys that thematically ties in.

      I believe it only recently released, and it appears to be sold out in many online stores. I would call your local game store to see if they can get it for you. Some online stores also have a "restock alert" that you can set so they'll let you know when it becomes available. But (shhh) it looks like Amazon has 2 left in stock as I write this. -Theo
