Hi all,
I've already got the following pawns:
- Bestiary I
- Rise of the Runelords
- Pre-ordered Curse of the Crimson Throne
Now I'm wondering, which pawn box should I get to be able to fill in as many of the RotRL and CotCT encounters as possible? Inner Sea Pawn Box? Pathfinder Society Pawn box? Something else?
~I'm sure one of you has made a spreadsheet.. Betting on it! ;D

I'd suggest avoiding the Pathfinder Society set at this point as it was geared toward the card game more than for those of us trying to use PFS in our tabletop games. You should be able to run the bulk of the encounters using the sets you have purchased. If you want to add more Golarion specific factions - which does include Pathfinder Society pawns, then you should add the Inner Sea Pawn Box. If you just want a wide variety of NPCs to fill in the blanks on your table, then the NPC Box is the way to go. In the long run, both are useful in Golarion based games.

It's been a point of contention amongst those of us that were looking forward to the PFS set. Apparently, they do use pawns in the ACG sometimes and this set was meant to appeal to them. Many classic scenarios and NPCs for PFS were ignored all in an effort to make a set for the card game. It's a simple choice really. You can look at the pawn list and decide if it works for you or not. If you're just starting to build your pawn sets, it is a good set to buy, but you'll see repeats from Bestiary 1 and the NPC Codex Box.

If you're into do-it-yourself and have a color printer, you might want to check out the Paper Minis for RotRL and CotCT. I have the Sandpoint set and the Edge of Anarchy set.
You print the Paper Minis onto cardstock and then fold and glue them together.
Alternatively, you can print them onto paper, glue them to a piece of 3mm white foam sheet, and use standard pawn bases for them. Instructions for making pawns like that are at this link.
