Product Description
A new line of massive monsters debuts with this menacing black dragon. A fearsome dragon heralds the arrival of the new Dungeons & Dragons Icons product line! Part of the D&D Miniatures Game portfolio, these new, non-randomized figures portray the larger side of the Dungeons & Dragons creature collection. These limited edition monsters are proportionally sized per D&D roleplaying rules to be either Gargantuan (4″x4″ base) or Colossal (6″x6″ base). These premium figures will only be available to collect for a limited time after each release. This debut Gargantuan product contains not only a black dragon, but extensive stats for the figure as well. There is also a full-color map and a playable game scenario, as all the figures in the D&D Icons line are playable in both the D&D Miniatures skirmish game and any roleplaying campaign.

Okay, so I love dragons, and the fact that I play Dungeons and Dragons is a nice plus (my husband is the DM). The iconic Gargantuan Black Dragon isn’t a toy, but a large miniature for the D&D game or as a statue to display; I wouldn’t recommend it for children under ten unless they’re very careful with such things though the statue is surprisingly sturdy, even the wings. The detail is wonderful, from the scales to the sharp teeth and the engraving on the dragon’s horns. The square base is a better idea than a circular one, especially if you use encounter maps that are dived into one-inch squares.
It currently sits in one of our four gaming book shelves with the Dungeons & Dragons books along with two anime figures and the companion Gargantuan Blue Dragon where they go very well. We’ll also use it in our games if need be, but the size of the figure compared to the smaller miniatures is obvious as the dragon towers over the figures representing your characters in the game and gives players a fairly good idea of what it might be like to encounter such a creature face to face. All in all, an excellent figure and well worth the money paid.
