Sixteen pre-painted miniatures come with the boxed set: four "heroes" (party members) and a dozen monsters. Scale is unstated, but the "human"-sized figures vary from 28mm to 30mm from foot to top of the head. The figures are made of a "rubbery" plastic, which is stiff enough (and the weapons sculpted thick enough) that things like swords and spears don't curl (as some other pre-painted figures do...). Bases are soft plastic, with names on the bottom.
The four Heroes are the 1st-level player characters for whom character sheets are provided:
Since this is a basic game, the monsters are - of course - of the less threatening kind. The Dire Rat has a worm-like tail, while the Wolf Skeleton has a separate "chain" around its neck.
Also among the smaller dangers are four Kobolds - two identical figures with crossbows, and two with spears. They stand about 15mm tall.
Getting into man-sized threats, there are five more monsters - a lizardly Troglodyte, a pair of identical, heavyset Orc Warriors, and a pair of Skeleton Warriors.
Finally, there's the Black Dragon - largest figure in this set at 46mm tall, though small for a dragon.
The full assortment (and some color map tiles) allows starting players to experience their first D&D adventure entirely in miniature.
