Elemental Evil #19 Earth Elemental (U)

Great miniature. Mini version of the large earth elemental.

This is an excellent miniature that impressed everyone at our game. The only problem is that the DM stold it to use against us.

An adequate earth elemental, just be sure to check your dimensions if you want it to match other elementals in your collection. The sculpt is a little boring but the two-tone paint job is nice.

Earth elementals are large creatures in the monster manual but these are medium. Strange enough, the fire and air elementals in this set are large but not this one and the water elemental. Wish I had known before purchasing

1.5 inches tall and 1 inch base

This is only a medium size creature, not large. Wish there was a size description before i bought

The sculpt here is quite original, forgoing the classic humanoid shape and going for something different: no neck or head, instead the face in the chest, topped by a "crown" of stone shards. It works really well! It really looks like something not shaped by a wizard or alchemist, but formed spontaneously from the bedrock by the elemental powers of the stone. Not human-like but spirit-like. The painting is simple but the wash accentuates the feeling of hardness: it's a really stony version of an earth elemental, y'see. All in all I really, really like it, it's got that certain something. A very sympathetic mini! Almost a pity to send them to be slaughtered by the adventurers!

I have to agree that the price seems high, but only compared to other items sold here. Personal I think these cute hafty earth elementals are worth every penny. I bought one not sure what I would get but liked the look of it, then bought more because I was just so pleased. I use them as minor earth elementals and the Loyal Earth Elemental as a major or controller or older depending on the lor of a particular realm or campaign world. I think these little guys are great. Their sculpt is great, very detailed and organic looking. The paint job is surprisingly good for a D&D mini. They have gotten a bit flat and dodgy in the recent lines. This figure actually looks and feels like it could be earth or stone. Like I said, I bought more, so clearly I was pleased with the figure.
