[QUOTE="JustKim, post: 3427588, member: 5478"] Huh? Not true. WotC said they couldn't individually sell the prepainted miniatures and make a profit- not even Reaper makes 60-80 figures in a run (at least, I don't think so); it would be market saturization and it would crash. There are many good reasons why, and it's all in a thread somewhere. But WotC started selling individual minis with the Iconics series. They're discovering what works and what doesn't. There are plans to release a 3-figure set later in the year. There probably won't be terrain, and since one of the figures is a dragon it'll probably be more than $30, but they are working on ways to do what Pinnacle is proposing. This isn't what they're saying can't be done. Depending on where you buy, the prices of individual DDM pieces aren't that bad. Paizo's prices are pretty outrageous, but at Miniature Market the high end figures usually don't go above $30. For a large monster figure and the equipment to paint it from Reaper, you can expect to pay at least $30. It won't be as durable and it won't look as good the first few dozen times you try it either.
