Rune Giants!
And I am SO serious. I want one of those. Even if I have to use equipment you usually paint walls with :D.
What "Golarion-specific" NPCs or monsters would you guys like to see produced?
Gray Maidens, The Grauls, Mother of Oblivion [a stretch size and cost wise], Bloatmages, Mokmurian, Faceless Stalkers, Cinder wolves, Akata and Sirens...
+ cultures not covered by the iconics
Rune giant...mmm...Rune Giants!
And I am SO serious. I want one of those. Even if I have to use equipment you usually paint walls with :D.
Not bad! Not bad at all! I want one.
I'd make one myself, but.... No. I am quite pleased with some of the figures I painted, and I even manage dto get my Ayl all glued together, but I'm no sculptor.

We'd love for prepaints to happen, but we don't imagine it's going to be economically feasible anytime soon.
I would love that also. Prepaints, prepaints, prepaints...
Grab the torches boys we are storming the castle in Renton...
You certainly have many minis you could create at this point and so many more as the APs and other source material come out.

Iomedae Cleric (if the female can have a breastplate, shield and sword, the better :P)
Iomedae Paladin
ok...maybe they can be the same mini :P (we want male and female!) :D
Calistrian cleric and sacred prostitute(same or different mini)
Eagle Knights of Andora (male & female)
Grey Elven sailors from Mordent Spire (both male and female)
Azlanti Wizard and or Cleric (Male & Female)
Telandia Edasseril, Queen of Kyonin
Elven Rangers (male & female, particularly, there is an female elven ranger in Elves of golarion that would be awesome)

For Ulfen raiders, might I suggest: These minis from Wargames Foundry?

www.wowminis.com has some nice looking prepainted minis. No clue about how much they will cost though.
Yes, very nice, but the problem with the WoW Minis is that they're the scale of a Large character. They decided Quality paint jobs were more important then being compatible with the rest of the miniature universe.

So they are bigger then normal mini then? I just found out about em. I like the world of Warcraft, just don't like the game. If singles are cheap I might pick up a couple to check them out, but I'm not going to go the booster route (ughhhh).

Wide-Mouth Goblins (Paizo-style)
Not to be confused with Wide Mouth Masons... :P
You know we've released nearly a dozen "Paizo-style" goblins already, right?
Right?
:)

The Wargames Foundry vikings and saxons are excellent - particularly some of the heroes and more "character" figures. Some of the more "rank & file" northmen are a little smaller in scale with regards Reaper miniatures and these guys from Rusted Heroes are perfect for Ulfen raiders - bought the set and the sculpts are well done and minis have great character - recommended by this northman :)
I also recently got a truckload of Reaper minis [mostly misc monsters and northmen] - again highly recommend them for Ulfen which reminds me I gotta do some reviews...

I blame you for hurting my wallet Erik. Tho this totally makes holiday shopping for my wife easier. ;/

Holy monkies!
Must buy!
*scurries off*
Holy monkies indeed!
Actions are being taken to correct the situation as we speak, and I have forwarded the link to the eight wide-mouth goblins to one of my fellow Pathfinder Society gamer who happens to be a pro mini painter... his website is here: www.artisansedge.com
(if he cuts me deal for painting the whole lot, I buy them all... all I say!! I am Sam... Sam I am! 'bout to have some eggs and green ham!! :P )

now if you could get reaper to make an iconics set of their prepainted line.... that might be more doable :)
Yep. We're constantly keeping an ear to the ground for new developments in prepainted plastics, but we have yet to find anything that wouldn't require us to sell at least ten times as many minis as we think we can actually sell.
I dunno about that... Reaper hasn't released any new preprinted plastic minis since the end of May, and there are currently none announced for the future.
In the meantime, they've been putting out a lot of unpainted metal, and have announced a new low-cost lead-based minis line.
These signs indicate to me that perhaps they didn't find prepaints as viable as we'd all hoped.
Thank you Vic for the link to the reaper minis. Unfortunately there a no pics of them. That brings me to the point for this reply. Nowadays taking in consideration all the ugly minis that are out for sale, I personally refrain from buying any mini that I cant have look at first. Hope you guys can supplement the pictures sooner or later. Would help to sell them. By the way, I was wondering why GW had you take the pictures for their minis off the site? If it ain't to nosy on my part, I would appreciate if you could enlighten me. (gee... that sounds cheesy).

Probably has to do with the images being copyright. Paizo may still be allowed to sell the stock they have, but not able to display any images that they aren't licensed to show.
That's my best guess anyway.

Well maybe I am overly suspicious of GW. But the thought has crossed my mind that they don't like other wholesalers or producers to sell their minis. (maybe, god forbid, even below their own retail price. (happened in Germany. They tried to keep others from giving sales discount. When some courts told them that they could not force other to refrain from giving a discount, GW stopped supplying to those that they knew, or assumed, selling below their own retail price.
But thats only a wild guess.

Your suspicion is pretty close to correct—they don't really want anybody else to be selling their products on the internet. Actually preventing anyone from doing that is difficult, but they can prevent others from using their copyrighted images. (You might find that there are other internet retailers with similar issues with their Games Workshop listings.)

We'll put them up as soon as we manage to get our hands on 'em!

if they came out as a set, I'd buy at least 1.
as far as other monsters/characters that I would want to see:
1: Yuan-Ti. Well sculpted and designed well, sorcerer style, fighter style, cleric style
2: Drow. again, wizard, fighter, rogue, cleric style
3: those little jumping-mugger-guys from Second Darkness.
4: the plant monster from outerspace (forgot the name of it)
5: sea monsters. whether serpent style, kraken style, or what, make em slimy and mean
6: blackjack
-t
1: Yuan-Ti. Well sculpted and designed well, sorcerer style, fighter style, cleric style
There might be serpent-men or something like that, but not yuan-ti, since they're not open content.
