Ninja Division Publishing has announced a deal with Paizo, Inc. to produce officially licensed miniatures for the upcoming science fantasy adventure roleplaying game Starfinder (see “Paizo Aims for the Stars at Gen Con”).

Ninja Division will produce a range of pre-painted miniatures to expand the adventures found in the Starfinder RPG. The range will include both adventurers and ships used to travel through space, both scaled appropriately to use as gameplay pieces. The first miniatures are set to release with the launch of the game at Gen Con in August 2017.

“The sculpts that Ninja Division have been creating for both characters and starships have been blowing our minds with their artistry and obvious love of the genre,” Starfinder Creative Director James L. Sutter said. “I'm especially excited about the ships-I can't wait to see the looks on my players' faces the first time I pull out a bunch of the starship miniatures for a space battle!”

Starfinder is an RPG set thousands of years in the future of the Pathfinder universe. Players take the role of a ragtag starship crew exploring the galaxy. Paizo  has already announced organized play for the game (see “Starfinder Society Roleplaying Guild Unveiled”).
