Raging Heroes looks like they're at it again with the upcoming release of Kahn-Urkan, Lord of Shadows. This guy ranges from big to
freaking huge (

Tabletop Gaming News Press Release wrote:
Raging Heroes introduces Kahn-Urkan, Lord of Shadows, a formidable character for your Evil armies. He represents the perfect Black Knight archetype. With his many options and his availability in two sizes, Kahn-Urkan can be used as a Vampire Lord, a General or the Avatar of a Dark Elven God, a Champion of Chaos, or a huge Demon.
Kahn-Urkan is now available for pre-order in two versions:
- Heroic: In 28mm scale, its massive wings give it a size of about 15cm high and yet, the mini fits on a 20×20mm base and can thus be easily incorporated into a unit.
- Legendary: In this version, Kahn-Urkan can be used as a Great Demon or a God Avatar for 28mm armies, or as a 54mm collector miniature. The mini will fit on a 40×40mm base. The tip of the wings is 25cm from the ground, making Legendary Kahn-Urkan one of the largest demonic miniature on the market.
Both versions are supplied with an impressive assortment of 10 accessories: five weapons, three heads, two sets of shoulders.
In addition, you can have Kahn-Urkan with Bat wings, with wings of Thorns, or choose the wingless alternative. Don’t miss the many images on the website.
Availability: Mid-July 2010
To compensate for the long wait, the first 100 pre-orders can save up to 10 Euros, depending on the model selected.
This guy is crazy looking! I think he looks much better from certain angles than others, but what mini doesn't? Looking at those thorn wings makes me want to put a little greenstuff to work and use the 54mm version as a counts-as for a Dark Elf Lord on Dragon. For the 28mm little guy, that wicked-looking axe demands I put an Executioner Axe Dreadlord with some
ASF Black Guard and unleash the pain!
Of course, given the other options this guy would be right at home as a Bloodthirster, Vampire Lord,
WoC Exalted on a Disk replacement, etc!
Options included with each kit:
Weapons - Curved Sword, Broadsword, Axe, Flail, Claw
Heads - Dark Elf Helm, Beast, Vampire Lord
Shoulder Pauldrons - Huge and less huge
Wings - Bat/Demon, Thorns, None
It looks like Raging Heroes is also taking efforts in bringing out the intricate details of their minis better as evidenced here:
