[QUOTE="Olaf the Stout, post: 6206958, member: 13703"] I own a couple of thousand pre-painted D&D minis, but don’t own any of the Pathfinder pre-painted minis. I think I’ve never bought any Pathfinder pre-painted minis for a few reasons: [LIST=1][*]The higher price point of the minis. By the time the D&D pre-painted minis line ended the cost per box and/or case was getting close to the most I was willing to pay. [*]I already owned several thousand pre-painted D&D minis. This factor also impacted on how much I was willing to pay per box/case. As I got more minis, I got to the point where I didn’t need more goblins, skeletons, zombies, whatever. I also generally had minis for most of the monsters in my game (or close substitutes). Yes, having a greater variety of sculpts was nice, but I didn’t need 40 zombie minis. So getting more zombies just meant that I’d be selling some of the older ones. [*]The number of Pathfinder-specific monsters in each set. I play 3.5E, not Pathfinder, so getting minis for some of the Pathfinder monsters was often not of much value to me (this same thing happened when the D&D minis switched over to 4E and started including quite a few 4E-specific monsters). I do own the Rise of the Runelords AP, so a few of the monsters specific to that AP were of interest to me, but that was about all. [*]Possibly a fall in the Australian dollar. I can’t be sure of this, but it was possible that the Australian dollar started to decline in value compared to the US dollar, making the minis (and all things from the US) more expensive for me.
