Any minicrate veterans know if I need to do anything particular to get the next VIP mini or if the auto-renewal will do the trick?

Is Lady Rose Riding Hood the first non-Mercenary/Minion model? Does this bode well for other factions in the future?

I like Alexia, the sculpt is the same as the art for the old D20 collected Witchfire trilogy if I'm remembering correctly. We never did finish that campaign back in the D&D 3.0/3.5 days...perhaps someday I'll find the energy to convert it to the new IKRPG and give it another shot.

D&D 3.5 is still used in many groups as far as I know and you can still find the rules if you try.

I think they are both quite nice minis. Is Lady Rose Riding Hood the first non-Mercenary/Minion model? Does this bode well for other factions in the future? We had the Cygnar Gunmage Captain Adept ("Runeball Wizard") two or three months ago.

They're not too bad, but at this point, I think I may stop subscribing and just get the ones that interest me.
I prefer the normal Alexia1 and I'm never going near Grymkin (though this is a pretty cool Karianna Rose). I've piled up a load of MiniCrate models that have yet to see play, even among those that do work for my faction (The Pied Piper is cool, and I've even been dragging Stryker2 out recently).

These both look like very nice models. I don't really need either one, but I'll be happy to have them.

I love the Alexia model, since the Alexia1 model is ... dated... If anything, it's a massive improvement over last wave's VIP mini. Lady Walls is probably my least favorite model.
Has anybody seen the silhouettes for the next wave? I'm guessing Lanyssa, Lady of the feast and ... dunno... Stryker maybe?

D&D 3.5 is still used in many groups as far as I know and you can still find the rules if you try. Yeah, I had thought about that. In my opinion though, 3.5 rules didn't do a very good job of handling the feel of the Iron Kingdoms- especially the mechanika and 'Jacks. It was fun when we didn't have a better rules set, don't get me wrong, but it seems like the new IKRPG rules are definitely a much better fit. It shouldn't be too hard to convert, just time consuming.

I agree the first looks like lanyssa To me the middle reads as a bloodweaver night witch holding a goblet of blood, but could definitely be a lady of the feast instead (outline of the headdress and sword seems much closer to the night witch, nor am I seeing a bird though that could just be hidden in the silhouette) That last one is definitely the harlan versh redesign judging by the shape of the sword, the multi-barrel pistol, and book on his hip (we know they scrapped the previous harley versh concept)

I'm happy that they are moving toward miniatures more fluff-friendly.
I don't play Grymkin, but if the next is really Lanyssa, and looking at the siluettes, maybe this is the time that makes me gamble a VIP subscription (Alexia is very cool, and if the next 3 are Lanyssa, Lady of the Feast and Versh I would use all of them and they all seem interesting).

Sono contento che si stiano orientando verso miniature più coerenti con il BG. Non gioco Grymkin, ma se la prossima è davvero Lanyssa, e giudicando dalle siluettes, forse è la volta buona che azzardo un VIP (anche perchè Alexia è molto bella, e se le prossime tre sono Lanyssa, lady of the Feast e Versh le userei tutte e sembrano interessanti). Lol why the italian? I agree though, it seems like it could be a good 6 month run

Has anyone simply let the VIP minicrate subscription renew, and did you get the VIP mini?
Don't want to miss out on Alexia, but my sub runs into next month and I don't want to buy a duplicate mini either.
