Hmmm. The minis look good for humans, but there's gotta be something
better for the the other meta-races. They have lots of potential,
though.

Are you refering to any particular set of figures, or to the Ral Partha SR
line in general?

IMHO that last set of ten figures, the one that came in a box instead of a
blister pack, was pretty good except that the sculptors seem to have gone
for the cartoonish look of the recent SR artwork. But at least the troll
was finally the right size.

I was talking about the ones on the link sent by Mongoose the other
day. I've only checked out the Ral Partha mini's once, and that was
for a 8 foot tall alien cyberpunk engineer I played in AD&D for a while
:).

BTW, maybe the idea of the corps selling BTLs isn't as absurd as it
sounds. Who cares if their illegal; the corps wouldn't. Selling
addictive 'substances' isn't unheard of, even legally.
