Well, recently a narrative campaign has given us a different look at some old stand-by models, some going in to some unexpected directions. Some were names seen in the Lion's Coup and the Witchfire Trilogy. Vinter and Leto both getting rules to reflect either who they were or who they could have been. We've also seen an old character being brought in anew with Bradigus being promoted from Potent to 'cast his lot' in to the WarmaHordes universe.
All this got me thinking, there are many other characters that are listed with miniatures under the Iron Kingdoms' aegis. While I only generally know the fates of some since the Witchfire days of Corvis and the Lion's Coup, I would think that some of them could potentially still be alive in the days past Magnus' Coup.
Of those who might be, who would be fun or interesting to see come out with proper rules to play with (ala Vitner or Leto) or even updated forms and models to face or embrace the new Infernal upsurge (ala Bradigus)?
While I don't see how he would be justified much, I think Draegyn the Black Bastard could present some interesting options. Then there is the Gobber Rogue, Gulgrenvogulugken, who I think would make for an amusing assassin Solo to put on the table.

I don't know if it makes buisness sense to PP or not, but personally I like the idea. I don't play the IKRPG but I own several IK models because I like how they look; I owned the Leto and Vinter models long before they brought out the -1 casters. I own all the Morrowans, whom I was thinking about modding to use as things like the Precusor officer and standard bearer.

They could put new sculpts for "alt-rules" (like the -1 casters) in the mini-crates for those that don't have the old models. I could see people buying them and playing them for fun at least. Win-win?

Draegyn was already given rules for CoI and saw WMH play in a recent league.

Many IK minis already got ported to WM/H:
Rutger Shaw Taryn di la Rovissi Harlan Versh Boneswarm Draegyn Narn, Mage Hunter of IOS
...and probably one or two others I forgot. Bradigus Thorle’s name (but not his mini) got repurposed for a warlock.

I am wondering if any of the IK Infernal minis will be ported over - didn't they announce a new Infernals faction recently? Also, here's nice link to the PP gallery of IK minis for reference: privateerpress.com/iron-kingdoms/miniatures

We don't have old models of Rutger Shaw, Versh, or any of them there. We even have a Stryker-2 from before he found out he was a Warcaster.
Riot Quest may even be a place for some of them to come out a play for the first time in forever.

The new concept art is vastly different from the old sculpts.

I don't care about minis for 'named' NPCs- I want minis of MONSTERNOMICON beasties! It seems to me that this would be the perfect low-risk project to try out newly-hired sculptors.
