These are great looking figs, but almost all are geared towards dungeon crawls because they are almost all carrying torches or lanterns. |

Torches are used for more than dungeons. Anytime your characters are in the dark (night time for example.) If the figure doesn't have a torch or lantern does that mean the DM/GM is going to say, "You can't light a torch because the figure doesn't have one," during a game? You pretend the figure has a torch/lantern This is just a flip side to that scenario. Or how about, "You cannot drop your shield and use the Two-handed sword because the figure has a cast-on shield!" Seems a bit… nit-picky… (yeah that's a nicer word) at best. I like the figures and against my budget and intention supported this KS. Perfect figures? Probably not, but I think they are excellent figures. |

Thanks guys! I know lanterns and torches aren't ideal for every situation, but we needed some for our current D&D campaign… As we expand the range, there won't be the same emphasis on light sources. Although I may sneak the odd one or two in there… ;) |

Sadly I did not have the cash to support this wheile it was running. Surely these figures will be available for purchase by the general public eventually? |

I went for all the figures. The torches can always be considered a weapon (toss the oil, toss the torch)…or used for intimidating prisoners. |

I'm not saying that they aren't great figures. I'm happy to see some women figs that aren't wearing the infamous chain mail bikini. Just from a visual point of view I don't mind a couple with torches or lanterns, but I would like to see more that aren't geared for dark fighting. |

Thanks everyone! IronMike, yep, they'll find their way into our webstore once we've delivered the KS… |
