[QUOTE="wingsandsword, post: 5602707, member: 14159"] I'll definitely agree with this. I've had good experience shopping with them for miniatures. Mage Knight minis work great for D&D. That's actually most of what I use. When MK first came out, I bought them up for use in D&D games, transplanting them to 1-inch bases. By the time DDM came out, I was pretty satisfied with what I already had. Yeah, they do have a certain amount of steampunk that's not useful, and no gnomes or halflings, but it's a pretty good selection overall. If you hunt and pick and choose, you can find some really nice ones. Silver Samurai is easy to repaint into a samurai of your choice. The Hand Ninjas are good for ninja mooks. Several minis make good monks. Definitely shop around and pick and choose and you can get ones for character types you wouldn't find with Mage Knight minis. I'll also agree with this. Some gamorrean thug miniatures are workable as orcs, but yeah, too easily recognizable or iconic to Star Wars. Unless you're running Expedition to the Barrier Peaks, you probably won't need many Star Wars minis. Also agree, grab bags from vendors are that way because they are the unsalable stuff nobody wanted. You likely won't want them either. Maybe one just for some variety and stuff you might not buy otherwise, but don't count on them to fill out your collection. [/QUOTE]
