Safari Ltd. Ice Dragon

This is the fifth Safari dragon that I've ordered through Fairy Rose Toys. They are the most reasonably priced distributors of these toys and always deliver well within the stipulated time period. The products themselves are of a superior quality and are always packaged well so that the delicate parts like the wings, etc. are not damaged during delivery. I just wish that Fairy Rose Toys would get a bigger selection of Safari dragons and animals.

Product is exactly as shown, packaged well and arrived super fast.

This Safari Ltd Ice Dragon I must admit is exactly as advertized and is beautifully designed, however I did expect it to be a bit bigger. It's just a little smaller than some of the other dragons we ordered as Christmas gifts this year. But it's okay. Nothing was false in the advertising, it was my mistake. I'm not sure I would get this again due to this, however, it is a beautiful dragon and as it is a gift, I'm sure the person receiving it will be pleased, but it is not going to match in size with the other ones we are gifting. I would say, though, that this dragon is the perfect size for smaller hands to play with and it is only a couple inches smaller than the others. This was one of the ones we ordered for one of the adults and perhaps for display purposes this smaller size would be preferred, who knows? Well, whatever they do with their dragon is up to them. We just thought it would be fun to get everyone a dragon for Christmas!

I bought this as a DND mini and its feet fit nicely into a 3”x3” base (Huge category). I went with this ice dragon because white dragons are the weakest among the chromatic dragons so my players are more likely to encounter her first. Technically, Adult dragons are Huge (3”x3”) and Young dragons are Large (2”x2”) but I see no reason why you shouldn’t freak out your players with a Huge dragon that’s really only using the stats of a Large creature. You would be getting use out of it much sooner. In the case of white dragons, it’d mean you could use this toy as a Challenge 6 instead of as a Challenge 13 (or Ch9 instead of Ch16 if used as an oversized Young Blue dragon instead of an Adult). As scary as it is for new players to see a 3”x3”, imagine experienced players encountering what they know should be an Adult dragon waay too early.

We bought this as a Christmas present for a grandson to go with a George Martin book "The Ice Dragon". We don't know yet how tough it is, but it's looks are amazing.
