I think they could of expanded the selection abit and go after the most suggested Miniatures but overall i see nothing wrong with that list. People asked for a second Rollerbeetle type Miniature and so they did just that,people asked for a Miniature Mad King Thorn and it seems they have also done that.

Funny thing is half the people that have posted in this thread have commented in the past on what a waste of time miniatures are and yet here they are complaining that the newest ones use some reskins.

Dude, the Roaring Ether isn't new, it's a reskin of the Temple Guardian.

So I guess I'll stop playing GW now. Anet can't do anything right.

Who cares if they are re-skinned?

How many people need to bring that fact up?
How many people need to write a list of the *possible* re-skinned minis?

I'm not keen on mini pets, but seriously, the whining is beyond annoying. Mini pets = free money.

None of the mini pets are reskins. All are actual monsters/creatures in the game. All they do is change the size of it. I don't remember people complaining that monsters in the game were a reskin of another monster, so why the big fuss about the minis?

If it bothers you so much, go play a different game. It is a mini pet, not a new armor with AL 1337 for a Monk to get at level 1.

many GW creatures are reskined. minitures are small duplicates of them.
"reskined miniture" sounds strange.

Oh? Weren't you around these forums when EotN was released? Perhaps you are a bit too good at filtering out the whiners?

That made me rofl. But really, why do people complain more and more about mini pets? Some people like them, if you don't stfu about it, same thing with ursan. I usually love to watch people QQ but this is getting annoying now. Amd about the "reskin" argument, WHO CARES! They are just SMALL MONSTERS, if you care so much that the miniatures are reskins, complain about the monsters being reskin, not the mini.

  • Miniature Abyssal = reskinned
  • Miniature Black Beast of Aaaaarrrrrrggghhh = reskinned
  • Miniature Freezie = New
  • Miniature Irukandji = new
  • Miniature Mad King Thorn = new
  • Miniature Forest Minotaur = reskinned
  • Miniature Mursaat = New
  • Miniature Nornbear = New
  • Miniature Ooze = New
  • Miniature Raptor = New
  • Miniature Roaring Ether = reskinned
  • Miniature Cloudtouched Simian = new
  • Miniature Cave Spider = New
  • Miniature White Rabbit = New

New = 7 *10*
Reskinned = 6 *4*
Fixed it for you, just for the heck of it, although I think the whole "reskin problem" is just plain stupid. And you should never have removed the white rabbit, because without it, then there is an incorrect number of miniatures .

Thorn does not match the other minis you mentioned, he has a pumpkin head and kinda throws that off. Simian and Mallyx don't have similar animations *to what I noticed*. And I don't see how you think a jelly fish looks like a squid-like monster.

Great, more pets for people to obsess over. Mad King will be everywhere, so not only will it be stupid to own one, it'll cost a whole mess too. Black Beast now available for idiots who don't even do DoA, and still no Master Togo. Fail pets are fail.

There are no reskins.

Some of them use the same squeleton, like the Necromancer's Flesh Golem uses the same as a Charr Axe yielder, but the models are different.

They only move in the same way.
