The Walmart packs arrived to my friend. Just to show you all this is how they are packed, just styrofoam-wrapped together. In Hungary we call this the "TESCO economy solution" which I guess is fitting as Walmart is like the US Tesco, no? :mrgreen:

Got 2 Rares in the Avernus boosters, one being the Red Abishai. Nothing in the Staircase ones, though one booster had 2 Uncommons!
Interesting to see the BG-DiA minis on clear bases. I think the original set still had black bases.

I just bought a set of waspnettle lizardfolk from reaper bones 6 and I believe they are resin 3dprinted. they have the telltale marks of resin printing such as many support gates. does anyone know why this is? I had previously bought the 30th anniversary dragon and that was made of normal bones plastic. is it only specific items in bones 6 cast like this?

If you go read the KS updates from ~6 months ago, they’ll have lists of what material each set was made from in Bones 6.

The waspnettle lizardfolk were 3D printed, yes.
does anyone know why this is?
Reaper is unfortunately moving in the direction of 3D printing a lot of their new mini’s. It’s presumably a response to the shipping crisis since 2020. It also aligns with their stated goals since Bones 1, to develop state-side non-metal manufacturing.

some finds at a local toy show. Orga from godzilla the exclusive variant made by X-plus and Osiris from Egyptian mythology made by tbleauge. not technically miniatures but at least Orga is going to show up in at least one D&D game (probably as a cosmic horror)[attachment=2]IMG_20241027_223248773.jpg[/attachment][attachment=3]20241027_162427.jpg[/attachment][attachment=2]IMG_20241027_223248773.jpg[/attachment][attachment=3]20241027_162427.jpg[/attachment]

Nice I was actually in my local game store recently to pick up the DMG and they had a couple boosters of Vecna left.

I almost bought one on impulse but they were $22 (CAD) and that $2 more was enough that I rethought it and passed. Funny how the mind works like that.

Got a big Mage Knight lot! Funny thing was, the guy selling it had put "here's a video of how the dungeon tiles work" and linked to a video of mine! :lol:

141 miniatures, 19 pieces of scenery items, 2x 3D Dungeons Starter Sets, and 3X 3D Dungeons Floor Packs. Not pictured are also 40x chests, a dial finger ring, lots of cardstock and paper stuff, and four MK doors.

All of this was $60 + shipping.
