If you have an AC Moore or other craft type store they usually have pvc figures that would be about the right size. I picked up a white dragon there for about 11 bucks. Haven't had a chance to use it yet though.

I played 2nd ed back in the early 90's and thoroughly enjoyed it. Our group broke up and that was the end of my roleplaying, until 4E came out. 4E brought me back into the fold and it's been great. I didn't like essentials and I'm not looking forward to 5E but hey whatever. They're in the...
