This question is a year in the making! What if I told YOU I have the means to make Milton Bradley quality HeroQuest style miniatures? Not taking into account all of the Game Workshop or any other miniature company out there, I'm talking Milton Bradley HQ style miniatures, what miniatures would YOU have wanted Milton Bradley to make, had they expanded the game further?

I always wanted:
-Minotaur(s)
-Skaven(s)
-Gnoll(s)
-Griffon(s)
-Beholder(s)

Besides the expansion monsters, which I would also love to redo, I really want to know what each of you would like to have added to your minion army?

Might take me a little while to get the figures going. It costs me $350 for the 3d model and mold. But I am working on finalizing everything.

Don't.

There are a lot of manufacturers.

I swim in models.

Especially the old HQ style is a thing I don't like a lot. Today's minis are a lot better mostly.

I didn't find a good replacement for Fimir and Ogres, though. If you produce a less static Fomor, i'd be interested.

Appropreately sized Trolls are difficult. I managed it with the old 7th ed WFB starter box troll, but those are hard to get.
