<p>- All humanoids (even the commons!) are as good or better than rare minis of prior sets. Their faces were especially good.</p>
<p>- The dungeon dressing was extremely well done in terms of both sculpt and paint. (Rope Trick, Book of the Damned). Most importantly, the book and pillar will be used!</p>
<p>- Minor gripe, the Invisible Guardian should have been made of clear plastic. Instead he looks like an elemental. I liked that it was common though and wished the bearded devil was common.</p>
<p>- The clockwork dragon and spawn were too specific for me to bother purchasing.</p>
<p>Great work, I look forward to the next set.</p><p><b>Pathfinder Battles—Deadly Foes</b></p><p>In terms of quality, this is the best set yet. </p>

(4 stars)Marco Massoudihttps://paizo.com/products/btpy9kcu?Pathfinder-Battles-Deadly-Foes2016-12-18T00:06:06Z<p><b>Pathfinder Battles—Deadly Foes</b></p><p>1 star minis: 1 (Keketar Protean)
<br />
2 star minis: 6
<br />
3 star minis: 10
<br />
4 star minis: 16
<br />
5 star minis: 17!</p>
<p>GOOD:
<br />
All 13 common minis get between 3 and 5 stars!
<br />
A lot of often needed monsters are in this set.
<br />
The best human faces yet, even better than the Rusty Dragon Inn set!</p>
<p>BAD:
<br />
2 minis were missing in my case.
<br />
Too dark paintjobs on quite a lot minis.
<br />
While Wizkids finally seems to have the faces nailed, the sturdiness has taken a step back in the wrong direction.</p>
<p>UGLY:
<br />
The rare Protean is the size of a medium creature on a large base, it has the wrong eye color (according to the Bestiary entry ALWAYS the same) and it doesn´t look as cool as the Bestiary 2 color-scheme.</p>
<p>This is a set where a case is recommended!</p><p><b>Pathfinder Battles—Deadly Foes</b></p><p>1 star minis: 1 (Keketar Protean)

While the paint work is impressive, it is a little bland on a few minis, holding it back from five stars (wish I could give 4.5). I can see myself using just about every mini, which is important to me. As a whole, I really love the set and think it is well worth an entire case purchase. Cheers to Wizkids and Paizo :)</p>
<p>If you do order a case, carefully consider the Clockwork Dragon & Spawn of Cthulhu add-on. They are well done, but rare/specific.</p><p><b>Pathfinder Battles—Deadly Foes</b></p><p>This set is mostly comprised of aberrations, Chelaxians, evil/good outsiders, hobgoblins and dungeon dressing.

I got at least one of every mini. Dungeon dressing was two per brick for a total of eight pieces. I got two candles and pillars (one of the rest). </p>
<p>1, 3, 4, 6, 13, 14, 16, 26, 27 and 31. 4 copies of each mini.
<br />
2, 5 and 10. 5 copies.
<br />
7, 8, 9, 11, 12, 17, 19-23, 25, and 28-30. 3 copies.
<br />
15, 18, 24 and 32. 2 copies.
<br />
Rest of minis only 1 copy. </p>
<p>Initial impressions: I really like the set and the vermin for swarms. Yes, the rope trick does look neat. Favorite would be pit demon and fire diabolist. Close is the gynosphinx. Would like next set to continue dungeon dressing and have more minis for player characters. Especially for newly allowed PFS player races.</p><p><b>Pathfinder Battles—Deadly Foes</b></p><p>Got my case today. I got at least one of every mini.

<br />
Great figure selection ( really love the Lemur)
<br />
Got a full set in a case
<br />
Pulled two rope tricks and two pillars
<br />
Paint jobs are great ( but could se a wash)
<br />
The dressing pieces are all useful to me at least.</p>
<p>Cons
<br />
Way to many unicorns although a quick snip and I had two unicorns and two white horses.
<br />
Three broken figures including my Cthulhu
<br />
Not enough crabs ( only three) nitpick
<br />
The wings on both my pit fiend and clockwork dragon didn't fit and had to be trimmed.</p><p><b>Pathfinder Battles—Deadly Foes</b></p><p>Pros

Nice variety and better sculpts than I expected. Faces were very well detailed, much better than previous sets. Only disappointment was that more depth could have been added to the minis by a quick wash. I can easily do that, but so could wizkids. I was lucky and pulled a pit devil- it is so large that it needs assembly, one wing needs to be inserted and glued on. I needed to trim the wing male portion to make it fit properly- again, easy enough for me to fix and assemble but may be a pain for others I was thinking as I fixed. Overall a very good set from what I have seen.</p><p><b>Pathfinder Battles—Deadly Foes</b></p><p>Picked up a brick yesterday. Nice variety and better sculpts than I expected.
