WotC announced non-randomized minis

33 cents for a decent orc stand in

Indeed, they make great "classic" D&D orcs...so long as the the big STAR WARS slapped on the base doesn't ruin your sense of verisimilitude. I'd probably paint over that myself.

Permanent marker or shaving off the silver paint of the StarWars with an X-acto blade works too.

Hahaha.... waaaaaaay too late. I already got all the minis I need... not to mention books.

Too late. I've got all the fantasy minis I need, both prepainted and metal. I've got all the WotC books I'll ever need. I don't see WotC getting any of my gaming dollar anytime soon.

I guess we should stop trying and close up shop then.

Or perhaps, rumors of your demise have been over exagerated!

Please, please, please make a mummy set with various poses.
Can't have enough mummies.
I love mummies.

So Scott, monster tiles, eh?

I'm not sure if the release covered this (it could be that this is in there and I'm just not comprehending what I'm reading) but I have another question.

Are the non-randomized minis going to be minis WoTC is already minting or will be minting, for the DDM game, or are they going to be a new set of miniatures made specifically for non-random production and sales?

I'd definately like to voice my hope that they will make new minis, specifically for non-random sales, that aren't designed with DDM roles or applications in mind. I'd like them to just focus on straight MM creatures, typical monsters you usually use multiples of (goblins, orcs, minion red dragons, etc), and different combinations of classes/races/weapons for PC use. I know they have a lot of good minis already that can be used for PC's, but who wants to spend $10+ for some of the really good minis? I sure don't. And they haven't covered all of the common combos PC's would want (they've covered quite a few, but there are gaps). Eventually I'd like to see a pre-painted, plastic miniature line as extensive as Reapers Dark Heaven Legends line.

That would be cool.

Seconded.
