D&D Miniatures Question

Hey.
Does anybody know if the new line of minatures is to scale? That is to say: If humans are 25 mm tall, are halflings 13 mm? Are trolls and umber hulks taller?

Are there gonna be any HUGE minis? I'd loooove to have a scale bullette.
:)

Humans are gonna be about 25-28 mm tall, with everything else in proportion to them. Here's a pic which demonstrates.

And no Huge minis in the immediate future. Just Small, Medium, and Large.
 


Is there a difference in the types of minis you get from the starter pack as opposed to the expansion packs, or is it just quantity?

I think somewhere there is a rarity break down but I don't know it off the top of my head. Usually, in most collectible games, the booster is the way to go for maximum rares and uncommons.

Personally, I hope WotC wises up and abandons the whole collectible aspect of this game.

It's just quantity and rarity level.

Expansion Packs ($9.99) come with:

  • 1 Rare
  • 3 Uncommons
  • 4 Commons

Entry Packs ($19.99) come with:

  • 1 Rare
  • 5 Uncommons
  • 10 Commons

Entry Packs also come with a buttload of other things, like a D20, basic skirmish rules, map grid, 8 terrain cards, a Harbinger checklist, and some other things.

As for that picture, my personal favorite from there is the Cleric of Gruumsh. That guy looks damned nice. I also like his stats in the miniature game, too. I'm already picturing an Orc horde in my head built around that guy.

From what I've seen, just ads in magazines There was a poster sized ad with a bunch of them in Dungeon (I think it was in Dungeon...I'm at work right now and I can't recall so don't quote me on that) this past month.

They look awesome. They had some labeled as common, rare, etc.

Does anyone have a link to pictures of them online?

There weren't that many female figures on the ad I saw, but hopefully as more come out, that will change. I really liked the Centaur and the Mummies will be cool for when I run my Egypt game :)

I'm sure a secondary market will pop up for trading etc.
 


The Mummy, Blackguard, and Executioner are all incredibly cool looking.
Looks like I'll be building a Lawful Evil warband :p

Dragon #312 has the poster insert with all the figs on it.
