[QUOTE="Zaruthustran, post: 4000558, member: 1457"] Me too. Those two races are unique to D&D; players wanting to try out the new races (dare I say, the majority of 4E players?) will have no other source for a mini other than WotC. Including them in the starter set would have been a terrific way to introduce 4E players to DDM. Very odd. On the other hand, if the Dragonborn and Tiefling are released only in boosters, the secondary (or "eBay") market will have very high prices on those figs. I bet a bunch of DDM players will be able to fund their complete set solely by selling extra Dragonborn and Tieflings. Speaking of: they should probably release three figures for each new race. A figure in chain armor who can sub for a fighter, cleric, warlord, or paladin, a figure in leather armor that can sub for a rogue or ranger, and a "caster" figure that can represent a warlock or wizard. [i]EDIT: looks like Amazon has the Dungeons of Dread boosters and starters discounted to $10, and right now they're running a promotion where all book pre-orders (AMZN considers the minis a "book", since it gets them through their book distributor) are an additional 5% off. They've also got the Deluxe Edition PHB at about 50% off. I just pre-ordered it, the DMG, MM, the adventures (all discounted $10), two boosters and a starter. [/i] [/QUOTE]
