While I didn't buy them this week, this is when B6 arrived:
I've been a Bones supporter since the original campaign and just gotta say, they were cool then but maaaaannn have they come a long way since.

My order of PFB Fearsome Foes came in; gotta say I'm impressed! Lots of useful minis, nice paint jobs and good value for the $$$. My case:

Been a while; here is my repaint of Moloch:
Homage to the 'Stones on his backside

My worry is that they’ll cull Nolzur’s to make room for Frameworks or some other wannabe boutique line. Exactly.

*I found this forum 4+ years ago, during the pandemic, and it has brought me a ton of pleasurable hours of reading and interacting. But we never get a snapshot of who we are posting on here for years on end. So here is a questionnaire I would challenge you lovely people with. (Please feel free to m...

I wonder if that could be a Greyhawk Dragon?
Doesn't have the skin tags but the face is similar...

Though the Moon as a backdrop does lend additional credence to it being a Lunar Dragon
