I guess this should go in the DnD minis forum but there is zero activity there. Does anyone know if the Beholder Ultimate Tyrant from Legendary Evils is a huge or a large?

You are not a moral man. There are not enough middle fingers in the world for you.
Actually, Santa just didn't like you. However, you weren't on the Naughty List, so he had to give you something "better" than coal.
I'd take coal. Heating your house is expesive, and engery cost arn't going down.
Mabey if i beat enough homeless people, i won't have to be cold this year. 
"Heroes"...I wish I had those. I remember in my first-ever campaign one PC went around shootin all the unconscious baddies in the head to gain Dark Side Points...
Whaaaaaat?!??

First, an experience from a game I played in a few years back. Our DM didn't like 3.5 as a whole but liked parts of it. So he hands us a big ass rules packet for his modified FR campaign, complete with quotes from important NPC's on the front. I can't remember most of the HRs, just that some how gods like Cyric and Bhaal existed at the same time, despite the obvious problems there. In the end the game became a problem more because of the railroading than the HRs, but it ended with this classic line, after our ranger tried to disarm the strange woman following us WITH HIS BOW: DM: You just killed (insert random noble sounding name here) JP: Was she important? Jack: Dude, she's quoted on the front of the rules packet!

Whey is a crotch.
Cut the last encounter on your way out after dealing with the Darth. He's the BBEG. Treat him as such. Play up that Darth Revan is THAT much of a badarse. When the shuttle landed, I had no less than 13 JEDI MASTERS step off the shuttle. The PCs were slack-jawed. After the meetup with Bastila (as she's carrying Revan's body), only TWO jedi masters remained with her. Let me tell you, the player whining about not getting to fight Revan himself shut up pretty quickly when he saw that. 
There's so much you can do with insanity, especially when it has alot of resources.
1. Cleric cast protection from fire on Tank.
2. Tank goes in and get surrounded by enemies.
3. Wizard cast fireball and blows them up.
4. ???
5. Profit

Yeah, I'm looking for a standard Beholder for my campaign, but given the Ultimate in the name and the fact it's in a huge set I wasn't sure.

Looks to be huge to me. www.wizards.com/DnD/Article.aspx?x=dnd/m...There's one in the Deathknell set that is large. There's also the Beholder Collection that came out a while back.

Oops my bad. I misread the question and assumed he was asking about the Beholder Collection. My apologies for the mis-info.

There are various websites where you can buy singles, and boosters although they tend to be above MSRP.
trollandtoad.com
coolstuffinc.com
miniaturemarket.com
These are the best three. I tend to use coolstuffinc because after spending about 925 dollars there over the past few years on miniatures I get 8 percent off all single minis, but they tend to have a slighty smaller number of singles in stock then trollandtoad or miniaturemarket.

I like Auggies Games for D&D minis. Good prices, cheap, fast shipping. He's quick to respond to emails and questions too.
I use MM for Dust Tactics. They do good work too. Free shipping over $99.
Also Edward, a few? That's how it starts buddy.

Agreed. If you want to start using the minis, all you really need are the PCs, probably some sort of grid like any one of the dungeon tiles products, and a few monsters you think might show up soon. (I'm talking about 3-5). There are usually inexpensive versions of any of the PC types (Except Dragonborn, the only dragonborn below 20ish dollars is an Elementalist/ any one who could have a robe and wand , not really a common PC type and it's still 8ish $ -_-, I don't really know why though). Usually that would come out to about 20 or so dollars, and that few minis and tiles can cover a lot of encounters.*
*Of course, if you're me you buy more lol
