the miniatures problem

[alsih2o]

been doing some research on some comments i heard here on the board and believe i might be able to create some of the plastic minis people have said they wanted, and wish to dip my toe in the marketing pool first..

would 20 prepainted orcs for $22 dollars be a "buy" for those of you who use minis.

skip the question of aesthetics, assume they were 'attractive'. is this a valuable enuf product to add to your stash?

5 giants for $12?

a dragon for $15?

all thoughts and comments are appreciated

I would go for the orcs in a heartbeat.

At 15 bucks I would also get the dragon if it looked good (equivalent to the mageknight dragons at least at that price)

The giants - depended on what they looked like but most likely the answer would be yea.

The Orc, HELL YEAH, one pack at least at first, a second later on. The Giants probably not, don't remember ever using Giants, and the dragon. Depends on the look, but maybe...

Orcs? yes.

Everything else? Probably not.

Since I use mage knight figs for my villians, if you could do as good or better, I would buy them.

have a mage knight link you care to share?

Orcs and other massed units.

Venemous Dragon

The venemous dragon is the one I have, though I keep a lookout for the others. I got it off of e-bay and it was about 15 dollars counting shipping. The pictures not great but it gives you the idea.

Actualy, a while ago, under a thread called I believe "Cheap miniature solutions" or something similar, someone uncovered a company that sold bags of orcs... a good bit cheaper than that too, if I recall.
