Is there anyway to get the # of each figure yet? For example "Big-Assed Gnome [Blood War 16/60]"?

I need more space... or a box to put all my minis in... plus my TV set's top already looks like dragon country, but with that blue bugger coming up I'll soon have to figure out where to place more Icons...

Wizards have stuck the stat cards (Both DDM & RPG)for the Harbinger set up on the website

http://www.wizards.com/default.asp?x=dnd/mi/20061019c

Next week should be Dragoneye

Incidently for those who want 3.5 stats for Drizzt you should look out for the Archfiends Pdf when it comes out 2 weeks from now

Ill probably go through and pick out all the cards that detail creatures that appear in the Summon Monster/NAtures ally spell lists and give them to my players (It will save a lot of hassle with players having to drudge through the MM for the monster stats every time they cast a Summon Spell)

Did you get lucky and pull a Medium Black or Large Red Dragon?

By the way if you want a gurranteed Large Blue Dragon mini then I suggest you buy this

Hello-

Just a general question aboutthe minis.

How many are collecting them - and has anyone managed to acquire a complete set from any of the expansions? I know I spend quite a lot on them - and have yet to manage to get a full set for any of the expansions.

It also seems to me that there may be some sub-rarities that ra enot listed - because some of the rares are Rare! and some of the commons are Common!.

I know that trading/buying is a great method of working on ones collection - butit only gets me so far! :) I have also at some points in the past bought some singles - but they were mostly commons and uncommons that were for the first and second sets, which was about when I started buying them in earnest.

Just mainly wondering what other's thoughts were on the topic.

Dhomal

I am collecting the D&D Minis. I would be more than willing to trade with people. You can send me a PM here with your email listed - and I can send you my minis list. Thanks!

Successfully traded with Xysma!

I normally buy 2 cases (24 Boosters) which almost always gives me at least 1 of each common and Uncommon. 2 Cases ussually gives me around 16-17 of each of the sets 24 Rares

After buying my 2 cases I hit gamesrocket.com and buy singles (Ussually rares) to make up for anything I didnt get from my 2 cases

I believe its now impossible to pull 2 rares of the same type from same case ie you could only pull 1 Horned devil/Ice Devil/Storm Silverhand from a case you wont get 2

Alright...I am confused.

More than usual!

When is the release date for BW? My FLGS says December 1st, Amazon.com says November 7th (or so) and WotC says November...what gives?

For everywhere outside of Europe 3rd of November ie this friday

From what Ive been hearing

Apparently the bloated nanny state in Brussels has introduced some new directive for what chemicals can be used in plastics in the EU and the D&D minis dont meet the requirements so theyve got to redo the minis for the European market hence the delay
