[QUOTE="wedgeski, post: 3756057, member: 16212"] I could probably be described as a strong proponent of Wizards' Digital Initiative, and have collected over a thousand plastic D&D minis, but no way in the 54 levels of hell's kitchen will I buy randomized virtual mini's. Please, whomsoever from Wizards of the Coast is listening. I. Will. Not. Buy. Randomised. Virtual. Minis. The way I see it you guys have only two options to keep me, personally, happy. I'm not talking about the D&D throng at large, or considering any notion of business sense here... just talking about my own personal expectations. 1. Plastic mini boosters come with stat cards including scratch-off codes which unlock that virtual mini on the game table. Therefore my virtual collection matches my real 4ed collection. Scratch-off codes prevent unscrupulous resellers from getting half of my product, but I understand how this will increase the cost of a single mini. This is okay. You want to add a dollar to the price of a booster pack? I wouldn't complain. 2. Booster packs come with a scratch-off code which unlocks a set of completely different randomised virtuals. This would be okay... second place to number [1] above, but okay, and a strong value-add to getting physical boosters. It would be a pain to have to effectively manage two collections though. I can see your, Wizards', attraction to a second market for randomised minis, but you must RESIST. You're doing so many things right with the new edition, don't make such a huge mistake now!!
