So in PHB3 they have a new race: The Shard mind. Baisicaly they are people made of crystal shards. I thought Reaper did a mini like this a while back. Other than the shard from VOR which are impossible to find I cannot come up with an idea for a mini to represent them. Anyone have an idea?

Iron Wind metals has an entire Vor line, not sure if these are your Shard but there seems to be a whole faction.

They don't look like crystal people to me. They look more like robots or someone in futuristic armor.

Y'know, I'm tempted to go down to my local crystal shop and see if they've got enough tiny bits to build one from scratch...

Really depends on how the VOR Shard are painted.  There were some stunning ones on CMON, but they seem to have gone.

I agree. The ones that aren't painted (ie whites, inked whatever you want to call them, the ones in the catalog page) look like a good replacement for Shards. I think the head when it's painted really throws off the Shard look.
