JediJohnson Posted August 13, 2014 Share Posted August 13, 2014 Worst thing is, that every 2-pack has one "character" and one army builder. So if you want to make an army of, say, Cultists and Ghouls for your Marvel Hell display, you can't. Worst thing is, that every 2-pack has one character and one "army builder." So if you want to get all of the characters, you probably can't, because you'll have to fight all of the people who want to army build Cultists and Ghouls for their Marvel Hell display for a limited supply of leftovers on the website.

Yeah, that'll be a problem as well. I myself won't buy more than 1 wave (if I manage to buy even 1), since this is so unexpected that I didn't gather any extra cash. But even then, it'd be kind of a dick move to buy more than one when the supplies are so limited. If individual figures show up on ebay though down the line I'll try to buy a couple more. Besides, I doubt this'll be the only time we see these figures. They'll probably change some colours, expressions,etc and release them again down the line so that everyone can buy them.TBH, on one hand I'm really happy that they'll be available now, but on the other hand I'm worried that I won't manage to get them. Oh well, that's collecting for you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mystery Man Posted August 14, 2014 Share Posted August 14, 2014 (edited) I want all those figures N-O-W. Where will they go on sale online at? So many neat things I can use for my monsters display!

youbastards Posted August 14, 2014 Share Posted August 14, 2014 Information seems to be trickling out through several sources. http://www.enworld.org/forum/content.php?1816-Final-Pathfinder-Minimate!#.U-t0f1a50qk http://www.enworld.org/forum/content.php?1793-Exlcusive!-23-Pages-of-D-D-5E-List-of-Specializations-plus-a-new-PATHFINDER-Goblin-Minimate!#.U-t0Ila50qk http://paizo.com/paizo/blog/v5748dyo5lgds&page=3?Friday-Publisher-Preview-Iconic-Heroes-Return http://www.crittohit.com/fantasy/paizo-pathfinder-battles-lost-coast-iconics-minimates So... sounds like lots of exclusives to track down. Zach - can you please confirm if this is the full list? I've got a buddy who said he will do his best to get them for me, but I need to get him the specifics.

youbastards Posted August 14, 2014 Share Posted August 14, 2014 So...according to all of the info Lobby posted above, there are going to be 4 2-packs ($10 each) and 4 individual Goblins. Some of the Goblins will only be available as giveaways during the show, but all should be available in limited quantities on the website after the convention.

Kostisfire Posted August 14, 2014 Author Share Posted August 14, 2014 (edited) I think that's the problem I have with the availability these, they all look too good to be this limited. Exactly. Everyone is both a potential army builder and custom fodder. Their site has the 2-packs marked as "Back-Order". Maybe they'll put the remaining ones up after the show?

youbastards Posted August 14, 2014 Share Posted August 14, 2014 My buddy just emailed me from GenCon... "I'll take a look, but the Paizo booth was swamped. There was a line out the door just to GET IN the merchandise area..." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kostisfire Posted August 14, 2014 Author Share Posted August 14, 2014 Well, poop. Guess that means either pay ridiculous after market prices on ebay, or miss out an entire wave. Crap. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lobsterman Posted August 14, 2014 Share Posted August 14, 2014 From the chatter I've been seeing on Paizo's board/blog, it seems people are mostly interested in the exclusive gaming miniatures. I don't know if I would rush to the conclusions that 1) these were produced in quantities any lower than normal exclusives, 2) there's a run on them, and 3) we're going to be locked out of getting these completely. Of course, I could be wrong, like usual. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CBMM1 Posted August 14, 2014 Share Posted August 14, 2014 (edited) At this point, the availability of these figures makes or breaks the line for me. I'm not a fan of Pathfinder, but I love the designs of these. Missing a single box set from a convention is something I can handle and afford to buy at a higher price on ebay. An entire wave plus four singles is just ridiculous. I don't think I could rationalize buying future box sets if I'm missing 12 characters from the get go. It would be much simpler just to skip the line if I can't get these set affordably. I'm not pointing fingers or jumping to conclusions, I just hope I'll be able to get these figures. Also a question for Zach: Who decided on having so many exclusives for this event? Edited August 14, 2014 by CBMM1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JediJohnson Posted August 14, 2014 Share Posted August 14, 2014 I think this will be a case of being disgruntled with Paizo, and not DST. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CBMM1 Posted August 14, 2014 Share Posted August 14, 2014 (edited) Oh yeah I totally agree. I'm not blaming DST. I'm just curious about who made the call. Edited August 14, 2014 by CBMM1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hellpop Posted August 14, 2014 Share Posted August 14, 2014 I think Lobby's right, there's no need to start panicking until AFTER this convention is over. We don't even know if they are going to be hard to get and we're already casting blame around. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CBMM1 Posted August 14, 2014 Share Posted August 14, 2014 Oh I hope my post didn't come off as panicked. I was just stating my stance as of now, not knowing all the details. I'm hoping for the best like everyone else. I just find the number of exclusives for a convention of this sort strange. It's not like we're talking about SDCC here! It seems excessive.

youbastards Posted August 14, 2014 Share Posted August 14, 2014 I would say GenCon is actually a bigger venue than SDCC, in terms of tabletop gaming aficionados. DST product getting a big presence at Paizo is great for the brand. Hopefully these will be easily available to order after the show.

CBMM1 Posted August 14, 2014 Share Posted August 14, 2014 That's true. I guess I'm just not used to seeing so many exclusives from the same line at one convention. I too hope this expands the brand, just as long as they don't sell out before I get to them! Haha! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
