However, except for the glaring lack of spaceships (x-wings, Tie fighters, carriers, etc.), the miniature line fills MANY of the needs for related miniatures. My players actually pay a dues (~$3 each) every game towards purchasing miniatures and the like. We play a Rebellion based game, so I focused on the Rebel Storm & Universe sets because of the severe lack of Jedi. If you play at a time Jedi are around, then you can pretty much grab any set or booster and get something useful.I even went so far as to purchase cases of boosters and then sell some of the Ultra Rares to pay for the box. Sometimes you can get 20-50 bucks for a highly prized mini. Half a case cost right there!As to the parts bending, that's just a limit to the materials used to make them. In my opinion, it's better to bend then break (which more rigid materials would), and without those I would be using cardboard cut outs or printed flat tokens.... which looks a lot more stupid than a jedi with a slightly bent blade against an ocean of storm troopers (which is chock full of awesome!)</blockquote>
