Gold should be easy, there will be two of them and Freezie and Mad King Thorn are a natural pair, embodying Wintersday and Halloween, respectively. Three purples left, not too difficult. Mursaat, The Black Beast of Aaarrrgh and Nornbear stand out of the rest of the bunch. Eight whites as usual. |
I agree that the rabbit will probably be like the moa chick, not a "Miniature" because it's already the right size. I put it at gold or purple, though, because it doesn't have much special other then that. Not sure who to promote if he is a purple, though.
100% agreement on the whites, though.
Courage!
Miniature Black Beast of Aaaaarrrrrrggghhh FTW but how would they fit that into a mini name

Well this sounds pretty cool, I hope I get something good this time and not the crap. It's also lying, not lieing. And liar, not lier. Jees people..

I'm thinking White Rabbit sounds more like a placeholder name for something that isn't finished yet or is supposed to be a surprise later on.

Don't forget to introduce new consumable: "Holy Hand Grenade," though...

Those of us with too much (Red Engine) luck will find out either way in a couple of weeks though

Usually you only download inventory icons for items you've actually had in your inventory (or a trade window). Probably won't see any pictures until the presents start getting opened.

Mini pets are silly, but the black beast of aaaaagh?! That would be well cool!

Does any1 get the feeling that the "white rabbit" is an allusion to alice in wonderland?, and that this little bit of code is just a red herring?

Hm. No mini-Jora, mini-Glint or Mini-Livia?
The only ones I found interesting were the white rabbit, mursaat and nornbear. Will definitely trade for those.
I'm betting I'll get the ether, the ooze or the abyssal, because I'm completely uninterested in them.

How do you all figure the GW version of the Black Beast of Aaaaaarrggghhh looks like a rollerbeetle??? I only know the Monty Python one, and THAT looks nothing like a rollerbeetle...
Is there already a Black Beast in the game??? *checks wiki*
oh God there IS... lame it looks like a beetle. Monty's Beast is waaaaay cooler. But nice tribute I gues..

A big YAAAAAY for no human minis!
I see 3 of the ones requested by me made it into the list, Mursaat, Freezie, Ooze. Some are quite unexpected, and some are really poor choices.
My detailed comments and color predictions:
White Rabbit - looks like an obvious green, it's unique and ubercool, a must have It has no Miniature in it's name so it must be a full-sized Rabbit, I believe Gaile has "The Frog" not Miniature Frog aswell.
Miniature Mad King Thorn - almost a winner, a perfect selection for a gold mini, I haven't expected this one as I've never seen him running
Miniature Freezie - I predicted this one, most iconic creature of all Wintersday, cooler than mini elf. It's probably gold too as it stands out from the others significantly. Next year Miniature Rudi the Reindeer ;p
Miniature Black Beast of Aaaaarrrrrrggghhh - it may be the gold instead of freezie, but i vote purple. Greased Lightning > this reskin imo, it will be a beetle for the masses.
Miniature Nornbear - stands out of the mass of 'regular' mobs, so can't be white
Miniature Mursaat - a nameless mob but a top wanted one, has highest chance of the remaining ones for making it above white rarity. Must have one
Miniature Abyssal - it's a shadow spiked evil Jungle Troll, not creative, I expected a much requested Smite Crawler in this slot. http://images.wikia.com/gw/images/0/07/Abyssal.jpg
Miniature Irukandji - another Wind Rider type, /meh for me
Miniature Forest Minotaur - feels like the worst choice, we already have Aatxe.
Miniature Ooze - predicted and expected, like an obvious choice.
Miniature Raptor - new farmers best friend good choice imho, they look pretty cool.
Miniature Roaring Ether - strangely I remember this one often requested by players.
Miniature Cloudtouched Simian - this one seems really uncool, ugly monkey
Miniature Cave Spider - just a common white, there have been no mini spiders yet so at least it's not a 'reskin'

I'm hoping the White Rabbit will be a quest-related mini, just as the Black Moa Chick.
I MP I
OMG!!!!!!!!!!!!1111 Mini freezie, mad king thorn, ooze, cave spider and black beast will be mini's! *wets self* Can't wait to see these. Seems like a nice batch really. You get some good ones and some meh ones in every collection. I might actually postpone my guildwars raging for few months.

WTB a Mursaat pl0x
Much better set than last year's, imo.

So... I wonder how deep the rabbit hole goes...?
KamikazeChicken
Miniature Abyssal
Miniature Black Beast of Aaaaarrrrrrggghhh

Miniature Irukandji
Miniature Mad King Thorn
Miniature Forest Minotaur
Miniature Mursaat
Miniature Nornbear
Miniature Ooze
Miniature Raptor
Miniature Roaring Ether
Miniature Cloudtouched Simian
Miniature Cave Spider
Miniature White Rabbit
I expect the Black Beast to be the green from the set, but at least a lot of people will be able to afford one, especially when it looks better than a greased lightning. Personally, I might finally swap out my Grawl for a Cave Spider, but I'll have to wait and see.
EDIT:
There are 14 miniatures for each birthday, so this rabbit will not be quest related.

IMO there is almost no excuse for lazy reskins. It just shows how much resources are pulled into GW2 and we are left with crap. Most people would take in example of the design a winner weapons and realize how awful most of them are implemented. Now there are a few diamonds in the rough that look really good i give you that. But to reskin a beetle, troll, aataxe, ect.. is just not a good idea. Of course there are some people whom might look forward to these mini's. More power to you. Wont argue on what you like and what i dont like, its all a matter of opinion. I am just saying i am ready for GW2 already. I feel mostly everything that has been implemented recently has been half assed. If Anet is really interested in keeping a playerbase through out the entire time till GW2 comes out, they should invest into some new resourses and people. Just IMO of course.
