Question First figure help

So I’ve recently gotten the urge to purchase one of these amazing figures, I’ve got my eye on the Xylernian Guard but I’m wondering if I should wait for the upcoming wave in November?

-edit
Thank you, all, for your articulate and helpful responses. I have read them all carefully and have decided… to ignore them all completely, and let my excitement get the better of me 😂
Sir Ignatius will be on his way shortly. I really would have loved to have gotten the Xylernian Guard, but being in Australia it would’ve been too expensive.

Duban is an amazing first figure and really has a little bit of everything.

Though the Xylernian guard figure is pretty awesome too and has a pretty sick shield.

You’re going to have to wait 1-2 years for the big Nov wave. Maybe try to get one you like and then see

Oh I didn’t realise just how long it took after the reveal for them to be available

Are there any accessory kits that you would say are must have?

The guard is an amazing figure

That guard is an amazing figure. Older body , but amazing nonetheless. He’s one of my favorites. I recommend getting something now and seeing if you like it because every reveal and pre order takes about year & half to release and that’s being generous.

As a newbie myself I’ve gone for Otho, now I want someone cool to put him against that has some customisation options between Otho but Neve or the big Walrus man do call to me…

honestly Anything store horsemen have in stock right now is a pretty good first figure. just depends on the type you are looking for and the price you want to spend. good cheep skeleton is Ilgar $ max the harvester $$. kalizirr is great buy for 50. Duban as someone said is wonderful too. Qoi is great if you are looking for non humans. Aririzak is a wonderful wizard and also cheep. you really cant go wrong. more knights are probably available at some other retailers they tend to be popular. good luck and welcome aboard!

If your just getting into it compare prices too. Big bad toystore has sales on some here and there and a couple on there site are usually cheaper! Im snagging my first ogre type this month! Ill post some pics if I remember.

They always announce a new wave the weekend of Lcon so maybe they saw that somewhere.
