[QUOTE="Steel_Wind, post: 3631664, member: 20741"] Two members of my gaming group buy minis in a big way every set and have since Harbinger. They buy five cases between them, open them together and equalize the rares. The last six sets they have ended up being short between two to four rares from two complete sets. Prior to that, I think there were 22 or 23 rares in a set and the five cases would be enough to make two sets. So your numbers would seem to be in accordance with their experience. After the move to 24 rares, they usually get the few missing rares from Popular Collections and call it done. I tend to get only one case which is enough for general needs. I don't need more than that gaming with guys like this. When I know I will need something I don't have, I have one of the above guys in my group (who has every mini back to Harbinger) bring a couple of mini storage cases to the game, with a broad suggestion of the critters the party will face., e.g. might be devils and demons tonight or "indead and golems please". He packs up and travels with about 250 minis on that theme with him in two plastic tool cases to the game. It's nice to have friends like this to game with :) I highly recommend finding some if you can manage it. It's much cheaper than buying the set yourself. :D [/QUOTE]
