Hoping for 'normal miniatures' without the plinth like bases...

 ;)

A larger concern would be; what scale will they be. Because if they're 43mm, or something else equally off when compared to (roughly) 28mm, the bases won't really matter anyway...

Looks promising.

I'd probably grab some of the minis if they were a  "proper" size and available separately.

That said, some of the smaller ones look a bit soft in detail, and Jareth's bulge isn't as terrifying as it was in the movie...

Is this just a rehash of the Labyrinth boardgame Riverhorse brought out a few years ago? The minis look the same although the big goblin Humongous wasn't in the initial board game. (Oh I see that the Humongous is a "New" expansion)

Humongous needs to be a lot bigger that shown there to keep relative scale.  I am hoping the "new" figures include the Junk Lady and the Old Wise Man which were shown as 3-ups a while back but not available anywhere.

The game is OK but does not have much replay value, maybe the rule revisions will address the overly random aspect of the mechanics.
The Labyrinth RPG River Horse do is much more fun.

Looks nice enough, but not for me :(

I am in for all the new releases, already have the core game sets and the RPG (which is excellent) so looking forward to getting the missing figures at long last.
