Short and Sweet

This week's figures come from The Rusty Dragon Inn set of prepainted fantasy Pathfinder Battles miniatures. With amazing paint masters, great digital sculpts, and lots of creatures and NPC types not previously available in prepainted plastic, The Rusty Dragon Inn is shaping up to be one of my favorite sets ever!

This week, I'm previewing a few of the set's "shorter" figures, to account for this week's relatively short blog!

Up first is the Dwarf Wizard, a stalwart who appears on the cover and interior of the Pathfinder RPG NPC Codex. Quite a mustache on this guy, who is showing off some elemental power by turning his hand to stone. I think it's safe to say... he packs on HELL of a punch! (Ahem.) The Dwarf Wizard is a Medium, uncommon figure.

It's long been a goal of mine to provide male and female figures for all of the primary Pathfinder class types (arcane spellcaster, rogue, warrior, cleric, roughly speaking). The Rusty Dragon Inn has proven very helpful in that regard, allowing us to grab some of the coolest images from the NPC Codex and bring them to you in prepainted plastic. Here we have the Gnome Wizard from that volume. Honestly I think she also works well as a gnome rogue, if you want to play it that way. The Gnome Wizard is a Small, uncommon figure.

Like the NPC Codex, the Pathfinder RPG Monster Codex has likewise been a great resource for this set, and from its pages come this week's monster, the Kobold Trapmaker, a Small, uncommon figure. This guy is a good example of a figure that I think looks even better in hand than in its 3D render, and I can't wait to add him to my kobold army.

That's it for this week! As one of my favorite Doctors once famously said:

"Sorry, must dash."
