[QUOTE="Zinovia, post: 4824505, member: 57373"] I have bought individual minis from [url=http://trollandtoad.com]Troll and Toad[/url] and had good luck with them. I like the fact that they have them [url=http://www.trollandtoad.com/Collectible-Miniatures-Games/4415-1285-1324p1n10.html]sorted by creature type[/url] as well as by set. They also sell bundles of random figures, or themed figures (orcs, or goblins, or whatever). Unfortunately their pictures leave something to be desired, but once you have found a mini you like, you can find a better pic on the official WotC [url=http://www.wizards.com/default.asp?x=dnd/mix/gallery]D&D minis gallery[/url]. As for dragonborn, because WotC wanted them to look good (have more paint steps) all the initial dragonborn minis were rare. This means they are now expensive. A dragonborn in one of my games is using the [url=http://www.trollandtoad.com/p114664.html]Baaz draconian figure[/url] from the Dragoneye series, which is fairly cheap. I use a battle mat (with a hex grid), but add props from Worldworks, Fat Dragon, and other sites that produce fold-up paper models. I like the fact that the WorldWorks tiles can be printed with a hex grid rather than square. Good luck in your quest to collect minis and tiles! [/QUOTE]
