With a $40.00 price tag (or near enough to not matter), I'd have to reluctantly agree.

I'm just hoping that there are some good Undead or Outsiders coming that will also be included to make it "worth" purchasing. If the map is legal, I think that many folks will be upset (and, IMO, rightly so).

Besides, I can justify having a small collection of Dragons. demons and devils, on the other hand, are a bit tougher.

People have been saying that its a mistype. Lidda even made a small remark about it. I think its not a Garg. Orcus but a garg pack with orcus and a few other fiendish lords. (aka orcus reprint still large with other fiends in the pack)

I'm not honestly sure that makes it any better.

What would be Gargantuan in the pack, or gargantuan about the pack?

I understand the utility of a bunch of Aspects or something similar (or even a couple Huge demons) better than one Gargantuan one, but I'm still not 100% behind it.

Yes, Orcus Is Not Supposed To Be Bigger Than Large Or Huge.There Were So Many Better Choices For a Non-Dragon Gargantuan Creature.I Will Wait Until I See On Amazon.ca Or Learn More About It Before Making a Final Judgment.I Do Like a Non-Dragon Icon.

I'm 150,000,000% behind this, whatever it may be. I'm hoping for more of a pack type thing with more demon lords or something, but I'll take 2 before I even know what's in it!!
ORCUS!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Is that just because it's Orcus? Or do you feel that way in general about the demons/devils in D&D?

Don't get me wrong, some of them look pretty darn spiffy, but I just have an extraordinarily tough time trying to justify laying out the cash for a Gargantuan (or whatever size it ends up being) demon/devil.

Pretty much all demons/devils/yugoloths/demodands/evil outsiders. I guess I have a fiend fetish!

Well, some folks collect Dragons, you go for outsiders.

There's nothing wrong with that...It's a bit strange, but not wrong.

I have an Undead fetish too....I think that's one of the reasons I hated Unhallowed so much. Not very many Undead in a set that was advertised to be all about Undead.

You say that like it's unusual.

Shocked

I had such high hopes for the Spectre and the Dread Wraith. Maybe the new mummy will be the farao ?

Yeah, sure.

Eh. I just hope we go back to the older, fatter (and less Planet of the Apes) Orcus. It won't happen, but a guy can dream!

I agree with Wraitnborne.. you always need swarms of fiends... and the arch devils would be cool along with the demon princes...but not bigger then huge.

I think they should give us an EPIC for Orcus before they throw any more orcus' at us.

I'm not picky, I'll take all the Orcus I can get. I really would like to see an epic card for him though.

As for the size issue, if they actually make him bigger than large, well, I'm sure a CR 6669 Demon Lord can be however big he wants to be, so that's not an issue for me.

If they make a Huge or Gargantuan Orcus, I think that it will be Epic by default!!

Very Happy

Man, a Huge Orcus would be pretty decent... :fire:

I've seen the pictures at Hordelings. It is an impressive piece of plastic that I doubt I could ever justify buying.

*sigh*

One minute I feel OK, then I see another thread about 4.0 and DDM 2.0 and then the OK feeling I have turns into something else entirely.

I like the sculpt, but won't have need for him. Maybe if I get a decent job, I'll pick one of these suckers up. But I'd rather get stuff that will actually see play or that I'd want a display of like a dragon (people know a dragon's fantasy, this thing looks like a mantle to a lame demon cult totem, haha).
