Thought I'd mention these. While some of these are clearly meant to be Tzcheentch, Nurgle and Khorne, and one looks like Chtulhu, there are some that seem to be D&D and Pathfinder characters.
Minos is likely Baphomet, Argus could be a Fire of Frost Giant, Charon is well, the Grim Reaper but also works as the Paizo Horseman of the same name, Ophys is a bit like Geryon, but the most interesting is Agrud, who is a lion-taur lady with six arms... I am pretty sure the Pathfinder universe has an Elemental Lord of Fire who looks exactly like that.

Re: Dark Place - Greater Entities
These are pretty cool! Would love to have a couple of these. They seem to be Huge sized, although I imagine those at the lower end of the price spectrum are probably more Large sized.
Argus the Giant is one I would absolutely paint up as a Frost Giant, seeing as his helmet is very viking inspired(no, not the horns, but the design of the face protectors on it), and so is the triquetra symbol(commonly mislabeled as a "valknute" by non Norwegian speakers) on his chest. Seeing as how the D&D Frost Giants are also heavily inspired by vikings visually, there's no doubt which way I'd take this paint job.

Re: Dark Place - Greater Entities
Yes the helmet is pretty viking-like, perfect for a Frost Giant. Sadly I have no idea how big these are, but for 120$, they should be pretty large.
Also, found a pic, yeah, Argud is totally Ymeri from Pathfinder.

Re: Dark Place - Greater Entities
I found these pics, which are the closest thing to a scale comparison I'm able to find:
But by the assumption that those are Warhammer Space Marines(32mm scale and bases), and that is the size of them compared to the Dark Place minis, it looks like these Dark Place minis have bases ranging from 3" to 4" in size.

Re: Dark Place - Greater Entities
While I really like some of these models, I also don't care for the pricing.
Maybe in a clearance bin some day.

Re: Dark Place - Greater Entities
Totally understandable. I don't see myself spending that much on these either. Especially since none of them are big "must haves" for me. But at 30-40% off, I might be down for one or two of these.
