WotC announced non-randomized minis

They should follow the trend in action figures and have a build-a-mini figure, made up of several parts. Each non-random pack would contain a part of the build-a-mini. Solves the problem of needing huge packaging for huge minis.
You know, I bought quite a few of the random minis, mainly because I liked getting oddball ones that forced me to be creative in order to use them. I would have preferred to get non-randomized minis, so I could get all the ones I wanted, but that was not possible from WotC. I bought a few singles, but then I started running out of room and spending money. Now I look for minis that fit my need. That means I am looking at non-random packs. I also prefer them pre-painted, mainly because I am allergic to the paints I would need to use to paint them. Reaper has started a good line, and I am hoping that the WotC line will work well too. I am not running 4e (though I will be possibly playing some), so my needs are mostly for older editions of D&D and other non-D&D games.
So, there are my thoughts on the topic. I look forward to seeing what they do. I hope it will be something I will want to get.

I like this as well. I've come up with several fun, creative encounters simply because I had a weird mini and no other way to use it.

Perhaps also to get the thread back on track, I've been someone who hasn't purchased the earlier random minis, specifically because they're random.
If fixed sets were to come out, I'd be interested in both sets of generic monsters, and sets for the modules. I'd also like to see sets of party miniatures, or minis based on race or even class.
I'd love to purchase the product, and I know I'm not alone.
Edit: add terrain and tiles for the modules to that list and I'm also onboard. In fact, "Keep on the Shadowfell in a box" would greatly interest me.

Back when Races & Classes and Worlds & Monsters was released, they talked about some of the iconic locations (Fane of the Drow, Temple of Elemental Evil, etc) showing up in the future, possibly in the form of adventures.
If they did go Dwarven Forge-style and made terrain, it'd be cool if they released sets geared towards those iconic locations.

Hi,
Thanks for the link!
Is it me, or is the forthcoming DemonWeb set hands over better than Against the Giants? (Or are those preproduction masters, and therefore giving me a false sense of what the set will look like?) It's like they rediscovered the rest of the color wheel for this set. Also, not too too many clear figures, from what I can see so far.

That makes me happy.
