We’re just a month or so away from the release of the first set of prepainted plastic miniatures in WizKids Games’s Starfinder Battles line, and I couldn’t be more excited to show them off to you today! In much the same way we launched the Pathfinder Battles line with Beginner Box Heroes—a non-randomized set of four Iconic heroes—way back in 2011, we’re kicking Starfinder Battles off with two non-randomized sets of six figures each: Starfinder Battles: Galactic Villains and Starfinder Battles: Galactic Heroes!
One of the greatest aspects of Starfinder is that player characters can just as easily be members of strange alien races as those central to the Pact Worlds’ core, and we made sure that even this alien-centric set had a few potential PC figures in it. Whether you need a cybernetic villain to challenge your players to mining rights on a remote asteroid or a malevolent brain with an atrophied body to really test the heroes’ mental resolve, the Diasporan Space Pirate and Contemplative have you covered.
Game Masters running the Against the Aeon Throne Adventure Path will likely want to grab a few of the Aeon Guard figure, which represents a soldier in the vast legions of the Azlanti Star Empire.
And for challenges closer to home, we have the Patrol-Class Security Robot, Necrovite, and Space Goblin Zaperator, each ready to bring your adventures in the Pact Worlds to three-dimensional life—or unlife, er, undeath? You know what I mean!
Starfinder Battles: Galactic Villains is currently on schedule for a late July release, so make sure to secure yours from your local game store (they need your business in these tough times!) or right here on paizo.com. Next week, we’ll look at the six figures that make up the Galactic Heroes set. Until then, Starfinders, don’t Drift too far from home!
