| Whoo-hoo.
Frost Giant Jarl (apart from the size creep), is WOW!! The size creep sucks majorly.
Kobold Trapmaker...Meh. I like Kobolds, but I'm not terribly enthused. | |

| Frost Giant Jarl is awesome! I've been waiting a long time for one of these.
The Kobold Trapper is fine. I'm not terribly excited about it for RPG, but I have a feeling it will be fun for skirmish. | |

| After seeing couple pictures, I stand corrected about size creep. I didn't remember the original Frost Giant being quite so big as it is. The Jarl should be reasonably close (albeit a fair amount bulkier). | |

| I like the giant, although his helmet needs horns. The kobold is eh. Another weaponless kobold in a fairly narrow pose... |

| I like the giant, my chance to get my first frost giant at last (and no, tundra scout didn't count because it's pretty much hard to use in a dungeon for RPG matters...). Hopefully I get 2 in my probably 2 cases of NB, and possibly buy another if I find some cheap enough.
Not interested by the kobold for RPG matters because I would have to design a VERY special encounter with kobolds caught just setting traps up... Hope it's good for skirmish because if not, it may well be the useless mini of the set (and as a common, there will be tons of them floating around. Maybe they should have done it as uncommon). | |

| I don't know that the Tundra Scout is so difficult to use in an encounter--people are going nuts for humans on horses, so why should mounted giants be such a problem.
In fact, with a tiny bit of tweaking, I would have the perfect place for a mounted Frost Giants if I ever were to run the campaign world I'm always thinking about.
Then again, the Scout was one of my favorites from WDQ.
I'll agree that the Kobold should have been Uncommon, though. Even as a trap-making assassin, thief, ranger or some such its RPG utility is somewhat limited. I believe it's better to have only a few of this figure compared to hordes of the Soldier, Warrior, Skirmisher, Champion or even Monk (who works as a Rogue so far as I'm concerned). | |

| Really like the Jarl, a big meh for the Kobold. It just kinda bugs me that they Named Snurre, but Nosnra and Grugnir didn't get names. | |
