Is there a list of what standees are included in each set?
Can we get a pic of what a standee looks like?
Are these just the legeless torsos shown in the product page or are these full-view (like Pathfinder Minis or SJG Cardboard Heroes) standees?
What is the scale? Are they 25mm? 35mm?
For the most part you get a full figure pose. As for a list, that we don't have, although (I hate to do this here), you can see a flash preview of the set on RPGNow.
If you like, drop me an email and we will send you a free copy of the first set.

Well, I got the free set of 3-d counters from Avalon. Thanks.
If you're looking for some inexpensive character counters, this has some good variety.
You get:
Warrior with gold mail and sword
Female hooded archer with sword
Emo Mage with white hair, weapon, spell, and big, brooding hat
Blonde Sorceress
Bearded Mage with multicolored pants
Female rogue
Dwarf with two hammers (large and small)
Female Elf mage with blouse and skirt
Dwarf mage
Female redheaded mage with full dress and staff
Female Dwarf
Male halfelf rogue with two blades
OK, the pros:
1) The figures have some interesting detail and look like adventurers, not just "guy with sword"
2) The women, while...obviously female...are not topheavy or endowed with rediculous breasts like many of the other paper mis you see these days...these look like adventuresses, not extras on a porn set...
3) They're colorful, and while the counters are a little bit bigger than standard 25mm. it will be no geat effort to print them at the correct scale
Now, a few cons:
1) The counters are oval shaped, or mostly so, not the standard square/rectangular or outlines. A minor quip, but something that will need a little work to fit in with other collections
2) They are a bit bigger than standard 25mm...I'd say these were more like 40 or 50 mm at 100%. But that's easy enough to fix, just be sure to scale it properly before you print.
3) My biggest complaint: these are not full character pictures. All of the minis are from about the knees up...so, you don't get the feet...so they'll look a little odd next to tradtional cardboard standups.
OK, but wth that being said, you're looking at 12 mins for $1.00. And you get some good variety. So, I still think its a good del if you need more player characters.
After seeing some of the monster sets, many of them ARE full pictures, so thats a nice improvement.
