[QUOTE="Aluvial, post: 5337587, member: 6862"] [b]Bad Distribution for LoM[/b] I cannot stand this set of miniatures!!! Mainly it is the distribution. The very rares make it VERY HARD to collect all of the miniatures. I have every single DnD mini from Harbinger on, in nearly every purchase, I've bought around 2 cases. In those, I've come short 1 to 3 rares. I bought two cases of LoM. I received 6 Very Rares out of 16 boxes, that's only 3 per case! Two of these are duplicates, so I have 4 of the 12 very rares, missing 8, 3 of which are the Very Rare Huge figures (including both dragons). I am short 6 of the 22 rares, only one of which was a Rare Huge. To complete the set, by buying cases, I figure I would need at least 4 more. I bought cases pre-ordered for around $90 a piece. Now, I see that low prices for cases are $110. That's about 6 cases to get a complete set from scratch. I would think that 4, and picking up the others in the secondary market would be best. The rest of the distribution is nearly as bad. There are 22 rares. That makes over half of the set (36 out of the 60) Rare or Very Rare. All of this makes the secondary market explode. Very Rares in the set are very expensive. I've seen the Elder Blue @ Augies for $49 already. If this is going to be the distribution for the future, I will absolutely stop buying this product line. As for the good, the sculpts are nice, but again, the paint... whatever on the paint. By the way, some might like one of the miniatures being a TINY chest, or a TINY Brain in a Jar. For me, including items is a bad idea.... but again, others might like that type of thing (I do like the Trebuchet) waaaaa! cry! waaaaa! [/QUOTE]
