[QUOTE="Scott Christian, post: 8106138, member: 6901101"] Started collecting Ral Partha. We don't use those anymore, but we do love to look at our old paint jobs. Nothing beats a 14 year old's perspective on what is cool - a blue and orange gloss painted bulette? ;) Now I use the plastic pre-painted minis. I buy them based off whether I like the set or I will buy individuals based on need. If I have a specific adventure that needs harpies, I am going to go buy as many as I need.
