[QUOTE="Jor-El, post: 5279264, member: 93132"] yeah, I'm not a big fan of "Very Rare", but then again, I'm not a big fan of randomized packaging of any sort. But, I realize the issues with selling minis. I wish they'd try selling minis in packs with the commons and uncommons visible, and one hidden rare (or very rare). That way you pretty much know what you're getting, and you're driven to buy more of the common figures to see what the hidden rare is. Especially if the hidden figures end up being the large or huge minis. Anyhoo, as to what I'd like to see more of...I'd love to see the rarity based on the qty of the critter you're likely to encounter in a game. Since the skirmish game is no longer supported, and the minis are purely produced for the RPG, the figure's rarity should reflect how many you're likely to encounter. I also want to second the notion that the RPG division and the Mini division should work together to make sure that the minis in development will match the RPG releases. I find it baffling that Dark Sun is the big release this summer, but there aren't any Dark Sun minis other than the Thri-Kreen...which isn't even Dark Sun specific. I mean, c'mon! Folks have been complaining about the disconnect between the two divisions for years...it just seems like a no-brainer. And I know that release schedules can make it difficult to release at the same time. They don't have to, but they should be fairly close. [/QUOTE]
