Thank you kindly, Steamforged! The goblin and hydra boxes look amazing! I'm glad to see you all letting loose with even more fun and creative encounters! -Theo
That is by far the best frost giant mini I’ve seen. Great detail and lots of little extras like the deer, weapons impaled, and the wolf socks. I really want to see that one painted up in all its glory
Wow, this is an amazing miniature, beautifully sculpted with such incredible detail! And I really love that they include a map, booklet with stats, and encounter scenarios and ideas. Another must-buy for me, great review Theo!
Honestly I think this and the orc set are freaking awesome. I'm so glad that somebody has come up with the idea and is implementing it. this makes the purchase of icewind Dale all the better. Not only would I love to own these products but I would also love to help them with another one
I'm right there with you. I think this is phenomenal series, and they're clearing having fun with it too. They announced their next sets today, a Goblin village and a hydra boss! They look fantastic! -Theo
I just received the hydra Epic Encounter box. I haven't even opened it yet, but I'm super excited. When I ordered it online, I didn't realize how huge the box would be. I feel like I'm 8 years old waiting for Xmas morning, I want to tear into it so badly.
Wow this really is a beautiful looking mini. Up until now I was only really keen on the 'minion' boxes but I'm really considering buying this guy now. Great video as always 👍
You're right. That frost giant mini is *totally* epic - I love his pensive, thousand-yard stare. Plus, I got some free fashion advice on the new sock craze for Winter 2020 ... large wads of wolf carcasses lashed to my ankles. Eat your heart out, L.L. Bean!
@@TheGallantGoblin Woo hoo! Styyyyyylin'! Oh, and by the way, Theo, I read below that you will soon be doing the GG full-time. Brother, that is *terrific*! I wish you and Grady the best on this big career move. I'll certainly help y'all in whatever monetization methods you need to make GG a rocketship of success. Cheers!
Can anyone tell me how the size compares on the goblins in the works with the whiz kids miniatures please?yes if I have a wizkids goblin will I be Abel to use them with these goblins or will they be different sizes ? Same question about orcs ? I know frost giant is a little bigger.
The Gallant Goblin yes are the orcs and goblins the same size as wizkids and reaper miniatures? Can I use them together or will size make them look funny? For example I see the front giant is bigger . I know it's not that bad for the giant but would be for goblins and orcs. To me anyway. Thanks i'm talking about the epic and counters box sets. The second box of goblins I thought looked pretty good but they're useless to me if they're proportioned or sized differently than the goblins that I have from whiz kids and reaper bones. The dungeons and dragons versions not the Petfinder. And the orc box set of epic encounters was also something I was very interested in however I do not wish to buy a box and only after I purchase it and open it find out they're on usable for me. However thank you for taking the time to even acknowledge me
The Gallant Goblin I don't have a lot of money for miniatures I'm a father of children and mortgage and bills. I'm introducing the kids to dungeons and dragons and I find the miniatures help. But I have to be wise of my purchases. So basically I'm asking if the epic and counter box set of orcs and goblins a second box of goblins are proportioned and sized at least close to the size and proportions of the orcs and goblins from whiz kids and reaper bones? And I'm talking about the dungeons and dragons style not pathfinder. And PS I just watched you opening that box where you took out two box sets from the witch light figures I think. And they were some of the 80s classic characters that I very badly want war duke strong heart and others. please make a video showing them soon. I eagerly await them. And by the way your cat Tilly playing in the box was funny. I grew up with cats I know the struggles of having boxes or paper bags laying around. Lol I want you guys to have a nice day and thank you
That frost giant looks amazing! What's it made out of? ABS plastic? PVC? Resin? I'm definitely considering buying it, but the mini looks so detailed I'm afraid it may be too fragile to store along the rest of my miniatures... (not that I would want to... this definitely would go on display!).
Not resin, but I don't know what kind of plastic. Strong, but enough flex that it is not brittle. I could wiggle the tiny swords stuck in his leg, and did not feel like they were going to snap off easily. That said, I would not store it loose with other figures. When not on display, the box itself has the custom fitting plastic storage tray, which should keep it quite safe.
Ah-oh,winter Is coming (not a game of thrones)I think I got that Frost Giant from Tyranny of dragon,butttt,I plan this giant if I Don't get that Frost Giant: Epic Encounters,I plan use that giant to play Conan " The Frost- Giant's Daughter"of course I need a female daughter and a another giant, anyway,Theo, I'm telling you you're a faster reporter of D&D, everytime you report a new stuff last week's,then you bring new stuff,I going to salute you,sir and thanks you for new mini, happy healthy
Amazing miniature and great review! Are you going to do the review of the new adult black dragon miniature of icons of the realms? Greetings from Spain!
Thank you kindly, Fernando! You can safely assume that if Wizkids makes it and it's related to D&D, Pathfinder, or Starfinder, we'll be making a video about it! :-) -Theo
There are just waaay too many great products coming out,my FLGS just got some of the Ravenloft box set in and these just look awesome as well , thanks guys!
@@TheGallantGoblin and thanks to you and Grady I get to see most all of it in detaled reviews! We are truly living in the best of all times as ttrpg fans!
Anyone from FRANCE has ordered something from "Steamforged" ? I really want those boxes but I'm scared to have additional charges / fees upon received (I had this problem when ordering from Wizkid). Would be good to know :-)
@@TheGallantGoblin Well, I stand corrected, that makes two boxes I won't buy. I enjoy your content, and not trying to argue. My point is instead of tokens. They should be minatures. The sculptures look good, in my opinion the tokens are a let down.
They just announced the Goblins (riding frogs and with a flail snail) and the Hydra boss.
And we'll be getting them in Theo's hands as soon as physically possible!
@@Steamforged If you want to send them to me i'd be happy to leave a comment here and let you know what I think :)

That is a great looking 'miniature' :)
Yes it is! -Theo
Just ordered mine. Cant wait to paint it, and add it to my frostmaiden campaign (once we can play irl again...)
Good job the review! I’m waiting on Hall of the Orc King, and now going order this!
Nice! I hope you enjoy it! -Theo
Damn... that’s a fantastic miniature. I saw this on their website and looked for a review, but I couldn’t find one yet here it is!
Heh, we're moving as quickly as we can! :-) -Theo
That mini looks awesome, thanks for the vid
Yes it does, and thanks for watching! -Theo
Wow, this is an amazing miniature, beautifully sculpted with such incredible detail! And I really love that they include a map, booklet with stats, and encounter scenarios and ideas. Another must-buy for me, great review Theo!
I’ve only heard about this line today due to an Army Painter video. I’m definitely going to watch the rest of your videos about the line.
Oh, you have quite a few treats to discover then. Each box has been really solid! Welcome! -Theo

Oh hell yeah! I'm wanting this & the Hall of the Orc King add-ons for an adventure addon for my son's campaign. They're getting ready to get cold.
Excellent! -Theo

Thank you! Yes, this is one of the best minis in my collection! Definitely don't sleep on these Epic Encounters boss boxes! Hydra next! -Theo
Ahh your a Southern California person to! It’s been cold lately for sure
Southern California for the moment. That may change soon though! And yes, I had to put a sweater on this morning! -Theo
that giant mini is gorgeous!
Gonna paint it up, mister? -Theo
@@TheGallantGoblin maybe someday haha i have not invested in any of these
That is one gnarly Giant, and the perfect party killer for a bonus mission at the end of Rime.
Yass!! -Theo

Ya I'd throw a brad,we were supposed to SLAY the red dragon,NOT LAY IT
Impressive Miniature
Just picked it up today, more the the giant than The adventure stuff
The giant is amazing. Hopefully the adventure materials will help too though! -Theo
Working on painting one of these since I had gotten it for Christmas this year.
Oh very nice!! -Theo
A gargantuan Frost Giant is truly epic! Finally something great to represent the Norse Frost Giant demigods from 3e’s Deities & Demigods.
Yesssss! -Theo

Hi
Great minature, but disappointed the orcs are tokens. Which is why I wouldn't buy the product.
Those orc minis are in the associated minion box, Hall of the Orc King. -Theo
@@TheGallantGoblin I get it, but I shouldn't have to buy two boxes.
@@TheGallantGoblin I get that, but when the Red Dragon came with Kobolds.
I shouldn't have to buy two boxes, to the frost giant minions.
The red dragon did not come with kobolds. It also used kobold tokens with the kobolds in a separate box. -Grady
@@TheGallantGoblin Well, I stand corrected, that makes two boxes I won't buy.
