A Gathering of Gandalfs!
« on: October 22, 2017, 08:19:11 PM »

I recently finished a 15mm wizard for one of my Dragon Rampant warbands and whilst doing so I had a sense of deja vu, a dig through my collection and here we have a gathering of Gandalfs:




I think I may have a thing for him :D

It's like the 'Cat in the Hat'!

So what's the collective noun for Gandalfs? A smoke ring of Gandalfs? A firework of Gandalfs? A McKellen of Gandalfs?

Internet says the collective noun for magicians is "illusion" FWIW.  There's no universally accepted noun for wizards, although I rather like several of the suggestions - argument of wizards, wrath of wizards, circle of wizards, wisdom of wizards, and perhaps my favorite, a contradiction of wizards.

But not a potter of wizards.  Just no.

Beautiful collection, tiny (6mm) Gandalf is my favourite.  8) 8) 8)

When I was playing a spellcaster the size-change spells in D&D were always some of my favorites to keep memorized for general creative utility, although I tended to use them on the fighter and thief types rather than myself.

Huge difference from the 10mm to 15mm than the 6mm to the 10mm.
I don't recognize the GW mage though.
But I love your gaggle of Gandalf's nonetheless.
