As I had written in past, apart from dragons, I love the Queen Beasts series! All those majestic creatures. And I just received a set of the first 5 from @britcoin a few days back!!
The next one is coming out soon!! The Falcon of the Plantagenets. Expected to ship in 2 days, Sep 26, from various vendors.
What do you think of it though?

Maybe it's just me. The first 5 beasts look so majestic, proud and strong. The falcon..... does not really match up to them (just my opinion - feel free to disagree).
Maybe it's the size of the falcon, which only occupies the top half of the coin on its shield, whereas the others dominate from top to bottom.
But for me, I think the eye is just plain weird. Is it looking above it, fearing another bigger bird of prey? Is it just cock-eyed? Could be just a reflection of light that caused the tiny spot.
Or maybe, the bird just looks like a pigeon?
I guess I must get one, so as to complete the set, but I am somewhat bummed about it.
What do you think? Drop me a note!
