[QUOTE="Stormonu, post: 5154078, member: 52734"] I was taking a trip down memory lane last night when I (finally) ran across some pictures of the first two sets of (metal) miniatures I ever had. It was the [url=http://www.dndlead.com/Grenadier/5000s.htm]Grenadier[/url] 5004 Tome of Spells (2nd version) and the Grenadier 5003 Woodland Adventurer's set. Both sets had about 20 minis in it. If WotC could present a mixed set of monsters (and possibly heroes) like this, where the monsters are visible, perhaps - and of modern miniature quality prepainted plastic, I'd really love it. I think it would make a great "starter set", as that was essentially what it turned out to be for me. [SIZE=1]Now, if I could find the (Revel?) D&D model sets, I'd be in heaven. There were two model sets - one an above ground castle under siege and the second a multi-room dungeon filled with creatures (the dungeon reminded me of the layout in Descent into the Depths, with a big central area and many side caverns. I think it the castle was supposed to represent the upper works of Castle Greyhawk). The two connected to create a pretty big diorama. It had scads of plastic "model" minis and was great as a diorama/play set/mini set.[/SIZE] [/QUOTE]
