This is how I have seen other game companies do combined books. You do not re-do the layouts, you are just combining them into a single cover.
I see the idea of the augmentations as a Sci-Fi version of magic items. I can't imagine someone playing a Pathfinder character from level 1 to level 20 and never, ever ending up with a magic item of some sort. Same goes for a Starfinder character and augments. On top of that, I say it is not all that different from our modern society. The haves, those with money, at some point of another all turn to plastic surgery to help try and maintain their above average status. Why not augments for those who can afford them? Course that is just my take on it.

And I would also like to see more ships as well. I see lots of talk about the costly unpainted miniatures (I assume because of the KS issues) but unlike PFBattles where you hear things over time, I have not heard anything and I hope this does not mean they are only going to do the unpainted miniatures.
I fell into the Starfinder game recently. I picked up most of the "Planets of Peril" miniatures (a few are hard to find) and love the ones I have. I tried to find any conversation regarding a new set and do not see anything. Now maybe my search skills just suck, so please forgive it I missed the obvious, but is there a new pre-painted set in the works? Thank You
Picked up a couple of boosters from the local store. I received the Juggernaut, now that is a beast. One of the figures I received, the Zorbo, looks like a large pile of horse manure. Worst paintjob ever. You can't even see what it is. I had to go to the internet for pictures of the monster to find out what it is.

I will go check the Frost out. As for the others, I must confess the idea of Beer as a domain just brings to mind an image of a "temple" with Clerics acting like a bunch of drunk frat bros. LOL

It was assumed that most party's would become stuck and not make it through the entire dungeon. This is a very important point to keep in mind. Often the winner was the party that made it the furthest before they died. TPKs for many of Gygax's early stuff was normal. His idea of success in an adventure and mine didn't always align. LOL

I looked at this new Kick Starter and just couldn't get into the minis. A few would be nice to won, but most are just out of my personal taste range. But I wish them the best of luck!

I agree, it does look nice. I am curious about it's real size though. The old one is quite large. I hope this one is similar size. :-)
Furdinand wrote: To me, none of these would be as awesome as some/more of the uncommon player races: ratfolk, kitsune, tengu, wayang, etc. A mini that could be used throughout an entire campaign vs maybe once around 1st/2nd level. So you only use your familiar or pet companion for one or two levels? Let's just accept that you have a different idea of what is useful then I do. I have never used or seen used at my table a kitsune or tengu. The ones I already own just sit on the shelf unused. But the dog, monkey, and cat minis are used quite a bit. I can accept you see things differently than I do. So for your sake I hope you get everything you want.
Furdinand wrote: It's cool to want to have a mule, but it isn't fair to act like non-combatants are not being made. Not sure why you felt the need to read into my post more than was there. All I said was I would love a mule with supplies as it is a staple in almost every game I have ever played. To be real clear; I love all my Paizo miniatures. I buy a full case every time and yes, I love my non-combatants as well as the NPCs, monsters, and other fun things. It is because I love the quality of their work that I suggested it would be cool if they made a mule. Nothing more. No slam to anyone.

Have a look through the Heroclix line and you would be happy to find lots of cheap "Modern" figures. I rebased quite a few to use in a near future SciFi setting.
While I like these Minotaurs, I do have to ask when will we get some of the simple things like a mule with supplies on it? I mean there has been a mule in almost every adventure I have ever played and yet it has not showed up at all in PPM. I love the quality and work Paizo puts into the PPM line so I would love to see them do a mule.
Hello; I just wanted to share a change I made to my Angelkin Paladin from Deadly Foes. I didn't really like the way the cloak was so I tore it off. I replaced it with some wings. Here is a photo of how he turned out. Let me know what you think..... :-)
I finally got to sit down and break out my case. Some nice looking figures in this set. Overall I am happy with them. Couple of issues though: 1) I have bought a case of every set from the beginning. This is the first time I have not gotten a full set of figures. It is also the first time they have not seemed to be distributed evenly in the case. It is almost like I didn't get a complete case but rather two of the same brick. Please note I buy my case as a subscriber from Paizo so I know I received a case as it came from the factory. 2) I find this set had quite a few flimsy overly thin weapons. I would rather have had the swords look a little large than like they were whips rather than swords. I think I will try the superglue coating method to make them a little stiffer, but in the end, I would have liked them to be sculpted a little thicker. 3) Lastly, I also didn't get a well. I received three stockades. Like I will ever be able to sell off the extras of those to buy the well. Figures I was the most impressed with? 1) Giant Scorpion. Much better than I expected. Great looking figure. 2) Death. Didn't need two of him, but I like the figure a lot. 3) Grey Maiden Dragon Rider. Wish I had been able to keep her longer, but the son put claim to the figure and so she flew away to his room. 4) I was shocked at how much I liked the Geist. What I will do with six of them, I don't know. But I do like the figure. Anyway, off to see if I can score the rare figures I am missing.
Ok, now this was a great shot. They posted some photos over on the Kick Starter. Look how big this beast is... I can't wait to place this baby out on the table and watch the fear in their eyes. LOL
Just saw and backed a great Kick Starter for those who love super large miniatures. They call it
I hope it looks as good as the digital sculpt shown. :-)

I get the Iconics are higher price and quality. I will give you that, but what is WizKids excuse when you look at how many human faces they do in their Heroclix lines and we don't see the melted faces there like we do in the Pathfinder sets? Just saying, it seems like a problem that should be resolved by now. I realize this is not a Paizo problem, but it does not mean the question is not a valid one.
