D&D 5E D&D Attack Wing details

Curious tidbits:
- Sun elves: FR naming front-and-center.
- Hobgoblins: look like Steve Prescott's concept art previewed here: https://www.wizards.com/dnd/Article.aspx?x=dnd/4dreye/20121010
- Black Shadow Dragon: curious naming. Wonder if that means anything.
- Movanic Deva Angel: seems 1e-3e angels are back.
- Aaracokra: looks like it has separate arms and wings, and is more hawk-like.

Figures will seem to run from $14.99 to $24.99, with some multi-mini packs. I'd love some hobgoblins, and those dragons look wicked!

Aarakocra were always described as a blend of Eagle and Parrot, and that doesn't seem TOO far off (a bit more hawk-like in the beak). Though the coloration being so plain makes me a little sad, I WANT MY BRIGHT ORANGE-PINK BIRDMEN!

But that's the only one of those I'm not a fan of, looks-wise. Everything else seems solid.

Maybe it's a female (bird dimorphism FTW)?

But the biggest change I see is the aarakocra sporting separate wings and arms. I know that'd make it easier to portray them wearing equipment, but I just loved the original Jeff Dee art from the FF.

Also, that frost giant looks wicked!

Agreed on both counts. But I'm also not a fan of the wing/arm separation on the aarakocra. Always thought the distinct shape was really interesting, and it put me in the mind of a sort of bipedal, pterosaur-like structure, with the wings folded back when not in flight. Every bird-man has wings comin' out of their shoulders.

...but something based a little more on something like THIS (with a smaller, more "human-esque" head)....

...stick that in a sunset pink-orange, and I'm cool.

Well, my own version is no secret:
