Go for the eyes with bright colors and a custom paint scheme on this giant space hamster miniature and paint set coming soon from WizKids.

The Baldur’s Gate games introduced the world to miniature giant space hamsters. Carefully cradled in the arms of Minsc, was Boo, who went for the eyes, and to all of our hearts. And now, WizKids wants to introduce giant space hamster miniatures. This is exactly what they’ve done in an upcoming paint-your-own miniature kit, that is of a Giant Space Hamster.

These kits, if you’re unfamiliar, include a ready-to-paint miniature and a set of paints that you can use (or supplement with your own) as a way to put your own personal mark on the mini. Learn to paint, or show off your skills. Either way, this kit is a great way to jump into the marvelous world of painting minis.

Nolzur’s Marvelous Paint Kit: Giant Space Hamster Miniature – $19.99

In this kit, you’ll get:

  • 1 x Space Hamster unpainted miniature
  • 10 x Expertly curated Vallejo colors 
  • 2 x Brushes
  • 1 x water pot and the ability to use the blister pack as the paint palette!
  • Access to an expert step-by-step tutorial by Den of Imagination for you to share with your customers

Giant space hamsters are cute, plant-eating rodents as big as brown bears. They tend to avoid other creatures, especially threatening ones, but they can be trained to serve as mounts and beasts of burden. Gnomes have tried to build spelljamming ships powered by giant space hamster wheels, so far without success.

But now you can have one of your own. Which, ironically, is an especially miniature life-sized miniature giant space hamster. This miniature of a giant space hamster is up for pre-order now, with an expected release very soon. WizKids lists Q4 2022, but, uh, that time is rapidly coming to a close. Still, even with delays, they release their miniatures reasonably on time.

Happy Adventuring
