Just bought my first booster pack of the ToD miniatures. The large black shadow dragon looks awesome although I question that its considered just a large (as in 4 squares) in size...although I guess its wingspan could just be misleading.

 

I also got a bugbear, a goblin, and an invisible halfling rogue. I had read that they've inserted a number of "invisible" versions of creatures, which are just clear-ish plastic. I guess if invisibility is a big deal now? Seems weird.

 

The box for the boosters is huge, but that's only because of the one large mini you'll find in the box. The other 3 are relatively small. As a bonus, they're all wrapped in bubble-wrap so yay to popping bubble wrap!

 

One thing I'd have liked to see the boosters come with are some cards with quick stats for the creatures. The Monster Manual is less than a month away, so I guess its not a huge deal. But still, would have been a nice addition for those who want to leverage their mini creatures ahead of time.

 

Has anyone got the Golden Dragon? Shops around where I am are pitching that if you buy X cases of minis you can get the special gold dragon for a discounted price (not free, just discounted).

 

How about you? Happy with the mini's? Curious also how many are planning on using minis in their 5e campaigns.

They are out now? I will have to ask my local shop to start ordering them for me!

 

So, I haven't gotten anything, but thanks for the heads-up. :D
