Ok bad puns aside this is a beholder kit I purchased recently. A friend also got this. His will be in purple whilst mine will use the colours of the Cacodemon from Doom. They couldn’t use the term beholder as that us evidently proprietary to D&D.

The bottom photo is the clear part that you can use to cover over the engraved eye space to do it another way. I lean towards this option via using Archer transfers Monster eyes from Historex Agents to do this.

The figure at about 10cm high is bigger than I expected.

As you will see from the photos below despite being already primered you will need to do a bit of filling. This particularly applies around the base of the arms (tentacles) that the smaller eyes are on. In part this is because some of the arms are detachable. There are four spare arms that are depicted with a charge coming out of the eye. You’ll get what I mean when you see the photo below

The figure is mounted on a clear stand on top of the base. Their is an obvious mould seam that will need to be cleaned up on this also.

Conclusion: This was a bigger kit than I was expecting,  the base is well executed including the stand that is well done. The spell casting additional arms is a nice option. Though it will be more work than I was expecting with the seam filling needed I think this will get a boost up the list.

More D&D figures to follow later.
