If you've ever wanted to eat a monster's miniature once you've defeated it... now's your chance!

Gummyquest--which has raised over $350K on Kickstarter--is a box of 150 miniatures in 25 different flavours. Each box contains 76 monsters, 15 heroes, 25 potions, and 35 dice--so when you drink that healing potion you can literally consume it.

Minis show in the promotional images appear to include paladins, wizards, purple worms, dragons, orcs, goblins, kobolds, bear-owls, trolls, and more.

This falls under the "Why Did This Take So Long To Be Created" category of life.
It really didn't. Miniatures gamers have been playing games with edible objectives and even pieces for decades. IIRC there was a "Gummi Wars" small-press rules set (ie it looked like it was made on a mimeograph) out in the mid-1970s. This is just monetizing the concept more effectively and aiming it at roleplayers.

I remember a game at Historicon back in the 90s where all the hidden objective markers were M&Ms, and you got random results when you collected them based on their color. Using gummi bears as civilians in Alien-style bughunt/rescue missions shows up regularly too.

Yes, but they've never had the "Lego treatment" before, like this.
