Beyond oni and bakemono

Very drawn to the Savage Wave models... I was wondering if long term the faction would include other gribbly monsters apart from Oni and Bakemono? Also has anyone tried an all-oni force yet, and if so how did it get on?

There does seem to be some sort of big hound-like beast in the pipeline:

 

I'm hoping for some classical demonic beast such as murderous octopus or giant fire-breathing spiders!

I follow the rules of bushido. I am a bushi.

Think SW fans will be happy with their wave 7 model!

Ooh you tease! Some very intriguing shadows there for all factions. I'm hoping for a claaic tako at some poiny, an evil land octopus weilding multiple weapons in its tentaclez. Though to be honest I can't renember if thats proper japenese folklore or just a d&d monster!

The Taiko, or something like that!

Those sillouettes looks fantastic, esp the Prefecture one

 

EDIT: Just checked, Tako it is, Taiko is drums :P

My memory sometimes works, especially when it was this cool-

could this be wave 7?

Never tell me the odds: Han Solo;)

I hope that Prefecture model will be in Wave 8!

Also known as Astraeos on Warseer!

I assume, in some future developments, they may get some Kappa (give them some small/ medium sized models that can walk on water - or maybe get a movement bonus when walking through water (i.e.: water terrain costs them only 1/2" of movement!)

 

Maybe they'll even get Tengu (bird-men).

 

There is a lot of folklore of the east, with many exotic monsters westerns don't know of.

 

Check out this Wikipage. Bushido has PLENTY of material to work from in creating their models for the savage wave. Chances are they may need to make a second inhuman faction just to cover them all!
