Now, as I said, they obviously have a 3d-renderer designed to recreate the look of plastic minis, which makes sense given their business, but they're actual minis don't look that good.  For instance, take a look at the bigger version of the Green Lantern set ad that <a href="http://www.enworld.org/forum/pathfinder-rpg-discussion/306409-pathfinder-mini-set-wizkids.html#post5572234" target="_blank">Cergorach</a> posted.  You'll see the same sort of excellent quality as the Kyra pic.  Now look at either of the links <a href="http://wizkidsgames.com/blog/2011/05/16/no-evil-shall-escape-their-sight-a-green-lantern-fast-forces-preview/" target="_blank">frank</a> <a href="http://wizkidsgames.com/blog/2011/05/18/beware-their-power-a-green-lantern-fast-forces-preview/" target="_blank">thedm</a> posted and click on any pic of the minis on those pages.  Those are obviously the actual minis as compared to the 3d renders in the ad.  While the minis are still pretty good, they don't compare to the renders.</blockquote>
