[QUOTE="satori01, post: 927363, member: 7859"] I'm still not sold on this product, some of the sculpts looked nice, and some were bleh. A lot of the paintjobs looked subpar, some looked alright. Admitedly I am a minatures freak and not being able to assemble and paint is a huge turn off to me. That being said a cheap pack of 16 pre painted minatures for $20 would be very appealing to me if they were sold in theme packs. I would easily buy 16 pre painted orcs or goblins or hobgoblins etc, 16 pre painted mooks would be very nice. I am less inclined to buy 16 randomized figures some of which might duplicate monsters I already have in abundance, or add more character figures to my already bloated collection. As a player only intrested in a model for my character I would think going the single minature route would be more satisfying and cost effective. Of course a good secondary market might alleviate this some of my concerns and induce me to purchase some resale singles, but this potential is contigent on so many uncontrollable variables,(price, a FLGS willing to do it, etc etc), I wouldnt tout this as the sole good spot for this product.
