WHAT THE FRAK Paizo and Ninja Division Games!!! $39.99 + shipping for 4 pre-painted miniatures. Or $79.98 + shipping for both sets. I feel like our wallets are being space hijacked. Get rid of all the extra plastic packaging if it will help cut down on the price. This is going to put a big dampener on those looking to play Starfinder.

Yeah, these may look nice but they are quite expensive, even with the discount being offered on-site (which is misbehaving when I add it to cart and not stacking with Paizo Advantage). If I got my 30% Battles discount, I'd be snapping these up as $25 for 5 minis sounds fair given lack of randomization bringing down per-unit costs, but I don't (nor do I see why I would, as this product line is completely unrelated to Battles).

These are on the same production timeline as the three other packs, so should be on sale at GenCon and should show up in retail stores later in August.
They're in manufacturing right now and we have both seen and approved minis coming off the production line. We had a full set of all 4 packs at PaizoCon for display, along with 25 minis from the unpainted Masterclass line (the Kickstarter minis) that constitute the May and June shipments to backers.

There's still nothing on the website that even hints that these will be available anytime in August. Or indeed, anytime at all.....

"Hey Marco, Yes we can confirm that the pre-paints have begun to arrive in distribution and we've received ours for Paizo.com.
Ninja Division has not set a uniform street date for these so the next step for us is to try and find the best date to begin shipping them out to those that pre-ordered from us. Most likely this will begin later this week so get your pre-orders in while supplies last (or go to your local FLGS and grab/order them)."

Actually if you play anything in your FLGS, there is a large inventive to buy your gaming materials there even if you're paying a few extra bucks to do so. Without your FLGS, you wouldn't have a play many of the games available today. You might not get exposed to many of the non-main stream games. FLGS often have demo events to try out new games. They often provide the opportunity to thumb through a game product before you actually decide to buy it. Plus, most FLGS do have discount programs for people who frequent their store. It might not be 25%, but for most game products the difference between 10%, 15%, 25% is usually just a few dollars. Not enough to get overly excited about.
tl;dr there is almost always good reasons to pay extra to buy from your FLGS.
