[QUOTE="Remathilis, post: 2428006, member: 7635"] Ok, picture this (riffing on a theme) The D&D minis have been out for around 2 years now. Lots of the older ones are OOP. Time to box set them. 1.) A box contains 10 non-random minis. Each are figures from Harbinger-Archfiends or GoL. It would comprise 1-2 rare, 3-5 uncommon, rest common. Each box is centered on a theme: Goblin Horde, Bandit Attack, Orc Raiders, Underdark Terror, Champions of Light, Elven Ambush, Undead Attack, Dragon's Horde. Etc. The figures would differ in some small measure: slightly different paint jobs (such as redecos) and have a different copyright/Base/set marker. You might even want to paint a trim on the base a different color (such as a blue ring) so that someone could tell these are not originals. If your going to shoot for a pure RPG fanbase, ignore the cards and include a simple module. If you wish to keep the Mini's line, include an updated stat-card (With a couple layout changes to distingush from the originals) Sell Each Box as a "Collectors Set" and about 25.99. The Non-random element will attract those looking for specific minis and those looking to Army build. The redecos will keep the secondary market for most minis safe, and force collectors to "catch em all" to have the variants. Oh yeah, limit each set to about 5,000 productions. Raises the collectable mode and gives them a secondary life of thier own. An Example: Goblin Horde 2 Goblin Sneaks 1 Worg 1 Hobgoblin Warrior 2 Goblin Skirmishers 2 Goblin Warriors 1 Uthok the Viscious 1 Snig the Axe 10 Cards or 1 Mini Module [/QUOTE]
