![]() ![]() The uneven quality of the painting across the line brings up another question I have with the Tyranny of Dragons line. Why are some figures painted nicely, while others in the line look like my 4-year-old hit them with her water colors? It’s inexplicable. The problem is that you’ll occasionally pull a figure that is a dud. But this isn’t because the painting is bad across all the figures, as some are painted up quite nicely, with a level of precision and detail, with strong colors. I can’t say I’m as impressed by the paint jobs on the figures however. I pulled a green dragon from a booster and I just stared at it like I was a little kid, noticing the sculped scales on it’s belly, the spikes on it’s back, and it’s broad outstretched wings. Kudos +1 to the artists who sculpted the figures, as it’s not just the dragons that look great, but the smaller figures look great as well. They are highly detailed, well posed, and molded very accurately. Figures are securely and individually bubble wrapped, so I’ve never had a figure be damaged. Each booster box contains 4 random miniatures, typically a couple small figures, plus a medium and large figure. There are 44 miniatures in the set and they come randomized in booster boxes. The miniatures are a sturdy plastic and come pre-painted. But while Wizards of the Coast makes the Dungeons & Dragons tabletop role playing products, they licensed their miniatures production to Wizkids. ![]() Tyranny of Dragons miniatures are meant to serve as companions for the latest D&D 5e storyline. What is D&D Icons of the Realms: Tyranny of Dragons? So…I won’t follow the anonymous internet commenter and describe the D&D Icons of the Realms: Tyranny of Dragons miniatures as blisteringly sexy, but I will spend the next 700 words giving you a quick review of the new D&D miniatures. To be honest, that’s not my idea of sexy. Ever since Charlotte Gray, it’s been trendy to refer to people and things as ‘blisteringly sexy.’ In fact, I saw that same phrase used as I was browsing through the comment section of a post announcing the Dungeons and Dragons Icons of the Realms: Tyranny of Dragons miniatures. ![]()
