This year, we’re proud to release a limited edition version of the gargantuan Orcus miniature. In the near future, we’ll announce the specifics concerning the release date and limited edition details, but in the meantime I wanted to show off the amazing sculpt and paint job for this must-own demon lord. With spectacular detail and vibrant colors, what D&D fan wouldn’t want to display this impressive statue?

Cool. Wonder what the price point will be and how "limited" it will be.

Not a subcriber to DDI. Does it look like the prototype?

Unless my 5 year old asks for it I doubt the Orcus sculpt will be within my price range for a essentially one use figure.

We run into the big dragons nearly every campaign (that doesn't implode).

Maybe we need a Netflix/Gamefly for minis where you rent for the one or two times you would actually use this.

Well that's surprising news to say the least. I don't think I'll be picking that up unless it's changed a lot since the prototype they showed us a few years back, but I'm very happy to hear that those who wanted one will be able to get it. :cheer:

The pic is a better shot from that prototype.

Is his pot-belly back and are the uber-steroid muscles gone? That's what I want to know. Good to hear the new shot looks better. The one I saw in the original photos way back when struck me as a deranged red-hamster anthro as it would look if drawn by Liefeld.

I'm getting one too, though it really took making something like this to make be decide to switch from the Reaper mini I was using as a proxy. :)

Still using the Reaper version of Demogorgon, though.

I wonder if *limited release* might mean *for subscribers only*?

You know, you can order exactly one and only if you are a subscriber to DDI...... :S

Anyone think this is a possibility?

They're calling it a "PVC Statue." It might be for subscribers only but that'd be almost a foot-shoot for them in a way as half the subscribers I've read posts from profess to doing so because it's cheaper than buying the books. I'd lay odds on it being a con-exclusive myself. I'll bet the price tag will also be really high.
