Gale Force Nine has announced it will make its high-end D&D Collector's Series Miniatures available to game retailers beginning next week.
The limited edition premium 30 mm, unpainted resin miniatures were first teased at Gen Con 2012, and began shipping last year (see "'Dungeons & Dragons' Miniatures"). Until now, they have only been available to "a select few specialist D&D stores, 60 in the USA," GF9 parent Battlefront Group CEO John-Paul Brisigotti explained. GF9 has now opened the range to all distributors and stores.
The figures have limited print runs from 1000 – 2000 pieces, and come in three main product configurations: Monsters (large figures), Duels (two creatures), and Adventuring Parties (groups). The figures are often tied to the current D&D Adventure Path (see "Exclusive Interview on 'D&D: The Sundering,' Part 2"), and GF9 releases two SKUs a month.
Making the current line of figures widely available will prep the channel for figures tied to the new version of Dungeons and Dragons, due out this summer (see "'D&D Next' Release Dates Leaked”).
