I am very glad to see the announcement Pathfinder Minis. I hope that they are the same quality as the wonderful Ptolus minis. I also hope that they do not flop like the Ptolus ones did. I like that the large selection of villains presented by the line so far. As a DM, it always seems hard to find just the right mini to express a monster. It always seem a little bit easier to find minis to represent PC's and NPC's.
For future releases, I would like to see some Ogres and Giants from Pathfinder #3. Some of the re-imagined dragons would be cool too, but due to their size, may be a little too costly to sell well. I'm not in a financial position to justify more than 15.00 per mini right now and I live in a two income house with no kids, which probably gives me more disposable income than most of your customers.
Thanks for planning these minis,

Mostly because I have enough on my plate without having to assemble and paint miniatures... was the idea of pre-painted plastic miniatures thought about or would that violate something Wizards has tried to trademark?
Just curious

As I've said in a couple of other threads, prepainted plastic miniatures require quite a large amount of money to get started, and Paizo just doesn't have that kind of money to get it off the ground. Secondly, it takes a BUNCH of time (up to half a year or more) to get them made, and we wanted to get the miniatures out sooner rather than later. Thirdly, Paizo doesn't have the expertise in making prepainted plastic miniatures. I wish we did. I personally only buy prepainted plastic miniatures for the most part (because my painting sucks and I don't have any time to paint anyway). So I wish these were prepainted plastics. But I don't expect that Paizo will be able to do prepainted plastic miniatures anytime soon.
