[QUOTE="cyderak, post: 7648217, member: 16003"] Honest and thorough review but i wholeheartedly disagree. Pathfinder Minis blow D&D minis away! For a couple reasons. 1. The sculpts are way more intricate than D&D minis. 2. The small paint differences is where Pathfinder minis are better than D&D minis. One example is the goatee on the ranger. (Although some of the Pastel colors could have been darker.) 3. Some of the most realistic spider minis I have ever seen. The Caveweaver scared the crap out of my daughter. 4. THE GOBLINS. These creepy little bastards make PC's afraid of creatures with small hands........smell like cabbage! And that maw full of pointy teeth that crawls its way almost all the way around their heads. :eek: 5. Three words.......HUGE BLACK DRAGON!!........That......Just......Happened!! :) And as for the packaging, Quit yur whining and open your PATHFINDER BATTLES minis over a recycling bin. The cardboard and plastic sleeves are recyclable. And if you throw the packaging right into the bin there is no mess to clean up. As for why they do that, its to standardize packaging. If they did separate packaging for cases and "ready-for-sale" bricks they'd have to spend more money on logistics of moving that packaging around for changovers from one to the other and then instead of having one product to try and sell, you now have 2 different styles of packaging that your pigeon-holed into trying to sell. This way its sold one way and theirs no real surplus of one or the other. Besides that, if you weighed out the amount of cardboard used on the older Pre-painted plastic minis lines like Star wars minis or D&D minis or the LOTR minis, per mini I think they'd be about equal. As for the flimsy-ness of the packaging........I don't know about you guys but I'm not going to be displaying the packaging from my Pathfinder minis. its going in the recycling bin.:lol: [/QUOTE]
