[@VincentDeMontmirel]

As a foreigner, I am slowly realising just how much the U.S. market is interesting for miniatures. I am more of a theater of the mind person myself, but I will definitly share this video with friends.

[@VVVHHHSSS]

There's a few shops with whole miniatures sections near me, haha. It's def a big hobby for some.

[@PurifyWithLight]

I play theater of the mind as well and also collect and paint miniatures. I use them occasionally in game but not very often. Its like eating the chocolate crust off of your candy bar first. They go together perfectly but are just as enjoyable consumed separately.

[@nobody342]

I have many miniatures now, but as a kid in the 70's and 80's we only had a couple miniatures, used lots of everything else for miniatures, ( we used Cast Lead bullets) but many people used coins, or candy or anything else that they had. we would often draw the dungeon room on paper, or the "Map" we had been drawing. I occasionally use theater of the mind, but anything you can do visually is better.

[@nobody342]

@@PurifyWithLight if you use Miniatures and terrain, when possible, its much better! Im 3d printing now, which I wish I had as a kid!!!!!

[@RogaineForEwoks]

I have too much bad experiences with theater of mind. Thinks like, "I run up to the enemies." DM nods, next round I say, "I take my axe and swing it low, hoping to put the monster on the ground." and the DM saying, "Oh you'll be there next round." TLDR Even if unintentional you get screwed too much if nothing is tracking where you're at.

[@CrowHollow]

The ad at the beginning made me laugh. I'm not into online play but the animation of Deathbringer was really great! Thank you for all you do and Huzzah! .

[@sherizaahd]

Yes, we all need a Deathbringer in our lives to bring us the hard-hitting information about how to get half of things.

[@terratorment2940]

I saw this come up and while I was too busy to watch it right this second, I made sure to play it on mute in the background so that the algorithm likes it more and doesn't assume I am rejecting it.

[@DUNGEONCRAFT1]

Thanks for that!

[@EcowarriorII]

Until I learn how to 3d print I still find Reaper bones a happy medium. And btw they have some good pig faced orcs. Otherwise known as ORCS.

[@colynrobinson212]

Learning to 3D print is easy. Just don't expect top tier master production quality without time, but good enough, solid to function, and can be painted is easy.

[@backcountry164]

There's basically nothing to learn. You just buy the printer and start downloading stl files

[@circlingoverland4364]

​@@backcountry164 there is a bit of learning curve for getting good results from random STLs you download, but there are also plenty of quality pre-supported files that can be purchased that are pretty much foolproof.

[@antongunther3977]

The barrier to entry is actually quite low. I got started by just poping a model into a slicer and hitting auto support. There are a ton of communities that are really welcoming to newbie printers. There are some elitists out there, but dont pay attention to them.

[@MrAndyPuppy]

Miniature Market had Altar Quest for $45 a few weeks ago, and the Stretch Goals box for $35. They have 76 and 135 minis respectively. Next Level Miniatures do Kickstarters for just minis and you're usually getting them for less than $1/mini. Their most recent one had them organized into little scenario sets so you could easily do one for a D&D session without needing to figure out what you need. A Song of Ice and Fire miniature boxes are often on sale for $20-22/box. Slightly more pricy for the per mini cost but again, great collections of similar minis. Oh, you want some sea priests? Grab some Drowned Men. Epic Encounters is a great reco and some of their sets go for $25 or less on sale. Darkest Dungeon board game is around $135 which means it's about $1/mini.

[@DUNGEONCRAFT1]

Thanks for the info! Thanks for commenting.

[@baronvonswankenstein]

When you mentioned D&D Campaign Cases in another video a few months ago, I immediately went to Ollie’s looking for them. I can attest that they have been picked clean at the locations here in Wichita. They had plenty of copies of the Dragonlance game no one wanted, but no Campaign Cases. And for the algorithm: I love ALL Dungeon Craft videos!

[@pierowmania2775]

They never made it to the Ollie's near me. 😢

[@imayb1]

My whole region sold out of campaign cases within a day of hitting the shelves at Ollie's.

[@kalendraf]

They are all sold out at the Iowa City store as well.

[@andrewshears2077]

I appreciate all the content Prof Dungeonmaster (with permission by Deathbringer) puts out. Industry news, mini stealing tips, dm advice, and clickbait scandals. I love it all.

[@keithkannenberg7414]

I've never needed to say that I love all Dungeon Craft videos to get them in my feed but I do love them. I'm not really into minis - the last time I painted one was about 30 years ago - but PDM still manages to make a vid that keeps me interested. It reminds me that I really need to look into local cons, even if I'm not looking to buy minis.

[@MemphiStig]

You say "crab people" and I get haunted again by the South Park song. Oh what I wouldn't give for a 3d printer... except money of course. That's out of the question. Great video!

[@marcclement6597]

Don't be like Prof Dungeonmaster, don't throw miniatures at your players. Some of them have pointy bits and can hurt.

[@WayneBraack]

Yeah that's why I throw them. Also why I use heavy metal dice.

[@AeciusthePhilosopher]

I usually play theater of the mind, but great advice for getting less expensive minis. Collecting and painting is a hobby all it's own, even if they are never used at a table.

[@DUNGEONCRAFT1]

I have many I nevr use at the table. Still love painting them!

[@nobody342]

Using minis is usually much better the ToTM. if you cant afford them, use pennies or jelly beans or what ever, Get a white board and draw your rooms out, have your players use the minis to indicate their marching order, a very important thing is you can understand that!

[@1776huckleberry]

This video was a work of art, loving the beginning and ending with model/terrain shots even if it's just for a skit. I love DungeonCraft videos! Also really exciting information seeing so many bargains I've overlooked.

[@georgelaiacona111]

I love ALL Dungeon Craft videos! That said, a few years ago I bought a 3D printer to print my own minis. Worked with it a few weeks to get it calibrated, then put in a box to move. And haven't taken it back out. On my radar. But, with the proliferation of manufacturers selling minis now it's far cheaper to buy online or drive to Ollies. Thanks for this.

[@DUNGEONCRAFT1]

Thanks for sharing!

[@emessar]

One of the conventions I used to go to was Recruits in Lee's Summit, MO. It was hosted by a high school club and only cost $5 for the whole weekend. There were always some great deals there between the cheap vendor stalls and the silent auction where attendees could sell and buy all kinds of games, minis, and terrain. Unfortunately, the convention has been discontinued, so I'm going to have to start looking around again.

[@DavidHooverJr]

Great information and video, PDM. My kids cleaned out the local game store during a sale recently on Song of Fire and Ice expansion packs that were all under $6. They are already painting them.

[@trynda1701]

Thanks for another great Dungeon Craft miniatures recommendation video! 👍👍👍👍😎😎😎😎 You got lucky with those D&D prepaints! Ive picked up small groups of the same figure for enemies if the paintjob is not bad the last couple of years off eBay, for a couple of GBP each figure. But you definitely stuck paydirt at the bring and buy! 😃😃😃😃 And kudos for donating them to your local youth group. 👍👍👍👍😎😎😎😎

[@DUNGEONCRAFT1]

Thanks for your kind words.

[@nobody342]

I am a 1e player, back in the late 70's we all started with miniatures as kids as soon as we could afford some ( and find some) . Now, I have a 3d printer, and I am printing most of the useful monsters in the Monster Manual in numbers that I can do the encounter sizes also!!! Nothing like the visual appeal of 200 giant rats coming at your player characters!1 all you Theater of the Mind Players will never be able to visualize that, you player turn you out as soon as you start talking, but you know the saying, "A picture is worth a 1000 words" and placing 20 or 50 goblin miniatures on the table really gets the point across, way better then any words I can say!!!!!

[@maciejmazur2622]

I love all Dungeoncraft videos! In 2024 there really is no reason NOT to have a 3d printer - i still buy sets of miniatures and collect older ones but the ability to knock out an encounter monsters a day before the sessions for literally pennies, or just giving one of your friends set of miniatures so he can play your favourite skirmish games with you is invaluable - apart of "i cant be asked" there is no argument left against owning a printer if you are into this hobby and intend to stay

[@DUNGEONCRAFT1]

Good tip!

[@codyhilton3142]

Hey prof. I recently came across your videos and I’ve gotta say, it’s been a pleasure listening in. Thanks for putting the content out there and thanks for all you do for the community. You’re making a positive difference in people’s lives and that’s for sure.

[@benjaminhayward5921]

If you're into the steampunk vibe, Privateer Press board games (Undercity and Widower's Wood) have a ton of minis and are usually pretty affordable. The minis are a soft plastic and paint up nice. I couldn't get my rattle can primer to stick, but just putting acrylic paint straight on worked just fine.

[@baronvonswankenstein]

A great alternative for miniatures is ArcKnight’s Flat Plastic Minis. They’re 2D miniature standees with full color art. Not only do you not have to paint them, you can store an entire army in the space of a hardcover book with a trading card binder. This also makes transporting your minis to conventions and other public gaming spaces a breeze. ArcKnight has great deals on bundles and starter packs. For myself, I bought the Fantasy Core Set and filled out the collection with a few extra packs of demons and undead. In one fell swoop, I acquired about 400 minis and have no need to buy any more minis for the rest of my life.

[@Kalizal]

Not sure if the Professor has mentioned them yet, but the Frostgrave minis are a great value for multi part minis. You get enough to build 20 generic fantasy minis for around $30.

[@DUNGEONCRAFT1]

Thanks for sharing.

[@gunnarrobinson5554]

The dark souls character expansion was my first real set of fantasy miniatures. I pretty much dry brushed the whole box, layer by layer with craft paints and love how they hold up with minis I've painted with more finessed techniques. I think they are selling a lot of the minis from the board game in smaller packs now for the rpg version. I'd also rec the phantoms expansion for more dark souls awesomeness. Great recommendation professor!

[@ericjensen7580]

Tainted Grail Monsters of Avalon (1 or 2). I have purchased one. You get 20 monsters (3 bucks per) that require no assemly and are high quality. I had a ton of fun painting them. I posted some completed minis in your discord last year. The dark souls set is great! Friend bought that for me for my bday last year. I still have smough and the dancer of the boreal valley to paint. If you watch for reaper kickstarter you can usually get a discount per mini by pledging. Reaper is my personal favorite mini brand (they just have that nice old school vibe).

[@DUNGEONCRAFT1]

Thanks for the info!

[@510newguy]

Wow, those resin ones really look sharp! I'm a big fan of the card-stock style minis because they store flat like you mentioned.

[@jakestaples8498]

I bought Magic the Gathering: Arena of the Planewalkers a few years ago just for the miniatures. I also bought some sets of Wrath of Kings and A Song of Ice and Fire miniatures when I found them on sale (Miniature Market or Amazon). The detail is excellent and the cost was good if I watched for sales. Last fall, I bought a 3D filament printer during a Black Friday sale. It was a large upfront cost but I can print miniatures with a lot of detail depending on the image file

[@donnieinman8049]

This is tangential, but I also love getting plastic standees, especially from ArcKnight. They call them "flat, plastic miniatures". Saw these in a video by Kelsey Dionne talking about her DM kits. Nice to fill out your collection quickly and doesn't have to be painted/assembled. I was getting into 5 Parsecs from Home and didn't have any sci-fi minis, so I grabbed a couple of their sets and I now have more than I'll ever need. Then if I want to replace them with actual minis I'm not under any pressure to get it done now.

I love all Dungeoncraft videos. Love picking up minis from small companies at conventions.

[@kalendraf]

Great video! I can really relate to it since I'm always on the lookout for cheap miniatures. There are a lot of low-quality and questionable miniature sets for sale on Amazon, but I've picked up a couple that turned out to be a decent value for the price: - Guards set by Drunk'n Dragon which features 5 copies of 5 figures (total of 25 miniatures) for just under $1 per mini. Thre are 3 human guard poses (sword, crossbow, spear), 1 dwarf and 1 half-orc - Mythical Heroes Forest/Swamp edition by House of Bodian which includes 90 figures (6 copies of several small/medium figures and 3 copies of some large-sized ones) - the detail isn't great, but the set has many has useful figures such as ankhegs, giant spiders, owlbears, blights (needle, twig, vine), shriekers, ettercaps, hags, dryads, lizardfolk, etc. Price works out to less than 50 cents per figure.

Best part of Monday is Dungeon Craft. I watch them all and then some of the older videos too while I paint and sculpt. My LFGS hosts an annual games swap meet. Loads of cheap minis from all across the hobbysphere and most vendors will trade too. If you're just looking for odd ball monsters, though, the Dollar Stores and 99cent Centers are great for cheap beasts and dinos and they're all over the US.

Love all the Dungeon craft videos. Im lucky to belong to a great local gaming club. So I have access to all manner of minis, terrain, etc. As a Christmas gift the DMs got the terrain tiles and monster tokens. It was so awesome. Any avenue to get inexpensive minis is nice. I have a couple of the D&D board games and will be using the Strahd one for running my Curse of Strahd adventure. Now to find time to paint them.

[@maxdoughty4213]

My alternative mini solution for small/medium creatures is to bulk buy common MTG cards, 1in plastic single coin display cases and a 1in punch. Never had such attractive or cheap tokens for my table. Amazing value if you can stand defacing tcg cards, there's some lovely art on some... Know that's not exactly a "mini" but thought I'd share!

[@mathewblaine1109]

That's a great idea

[@kgoblin5084]

Could also do the Runehammer thing, & just draw on index cards... no stress from defacing cards but maybe stress from lacking art skills :D

[@rocketinitiative8004]

I started doing this a few years ago and it is a really great alternative.

[@LeonardAndHisBiscuit]

Can confirm, did this to an old MTG card I had with a black/blue flower on it, made for a very nice setpiece token before it 'blossomed' into the big bad mini. Had the whole table just staring at it the whole time, even when I tossed it aside. Kind of cool.

Man I genuinely love this video. It's comeback from an old school video where I got some of my minis. It is also helping out players get cheaper minis while exposing some smaller companies and cons.

[@Karlmakesstuff]

I have Blood rage, highly second the recommendation! Depending on how cheap qualifies as cheap, some of the Song of Ice and Fire starter sets could come in clutch - the wildling set gives you 48 minis (including 2 giants) for just over $2/mini. Monolith's Conan boardgame is also a great source for miniatures - it's currently out of print but they have done at least a second print run so it might show up again. I admit I never played the boardgame but I *have* used the miniatures a lot :) Edit: The SOIAF are slightly larger scale than Blood rage so worth checking first if that's the kind of thing that bothers you.

I realize it's not a feasible option for everyone, but if you can play out about $300 for a resin 3d printer and curing station it will save you a bundle in the long run. I used to spend a lot on miniatures. Then I got a Mars 2 Pro printer for about $250 and I can print miniatures and small terrain for literally pennies each. It sounds like a lot but you can easily drop that much on a single Kickstarter project.

I've never used one, so I don't think I'm qualified to recommend it. Thanks for commenting.

Perhaps cries of “Deathbringer!” will become the new “Freebird!” at metal concerts. 😆

That'd be awesome!

I highly recommend North Star Military Figures to anyone looking for a good value on multi-part kits. It's UK-based, but if you're in the US you can find most of their range online at Badger Games and Brigade Games.
