If you haven't read the first review of the Kre-o Dungeons and Dragons figures, I highly encourage you to check it out. In the first reveiw, I cover a number of generic elements common to all the Kre-o Army Builder Packs, which I won't be repeating here. That said, let's look at a few more of figures. First up, from the "good" faction, the Flag Carrier . Overall, I rather like this figure more than I initially thought I would. The head piece, with the helm and chainmail coif is really well sculpted. The blue tabbard pattern is continued from the chest to part way down the legs, but the best feature in my opinion is the spear the flag is attached to. This is an impressive looking weapon, standing more than two minifigs high, with an equally matching oversized blade at the tip. This is clearly a great example of a weapon with reach . There really isn't anything I don't like about this specific figure (I do have some general issues with the Kreons vers...

This will be the first of several reviews of the new Dungeons and Dragons Kre-o sets. In the this review, I'll look at a few of the new figures available in the "Army Builder Pack". I discussed my initial thoughts in a previous post based solely on the limited product information and sample images provided. In these actual product follow-ups, I'll touch on some of my assumptions and which have changed, now that I have better information. For my first review, I'm going to focus on the Army Builder Packs. The packs retail for $2.99, which is the same price as the Lego Collectible Minifigure sets. The bags are "blind" (meaning you don't know what is included in each bag), but that's not really the case. On the back of each bag, is a stamped number, which is partially unique for each figure, so a quick Internet search will link you to several pages (or YouTube videos) showing you how to find the number and which number corresponds to which figur...

If you read my previous post, you already know about the upcoming Dungeons and Dragons Kre-0 sets that were announced at this year's San Diego Comic-Con. Just recently I found, on the Kastors Korner blog, images of more of the minifigs that will be appearing in the new sets. Just click on the link above and scroll down toward the bottom of the page to see the photo gallery. What's really interesting, besides what the figures will look like, and some of their accessories, is the fact that they draw on specific D&D IP, namely, key characters from the Forgotten Realms setting. Wulfgar, one of Drizzt's companions prior to the whole spell-plague time jump hints that we might see sets based on some of the earlier books, while characters like Lord Neverember and Isteval hint at sets and figures from the current Sundering event. I was excited when I first heard about these sets, now even more so!

As a big fan of LEGO and D&D, it would only seem fitting that one influence the other. The Centaur (Male) ( Note: This design is not completely mine, I did make some slight mods to versions I'd seen elsewhere online).
