We haven’t shared some of our favorite out-of-the-box prepainted miniatures in a while so 3D RPG was definitely due here.
DM Ben is on this kick lately where he just loves to open up an RPG item after a long day at the office. So, when he doesn’t have a Kickstarter or a freshly painted print from Kimmy Utah, he’s been opening up a WizKids booster pack. Besides, celebrating another dollar from that work 401k just doesn’t carry the same happiness weight.
The best economical move is to just snag a booster brick and then fill out any remaining favorites by purchasing those singles from sites like MiniatureMarket. DM Ben bought a brick of Seas and Shores and a brick of Sands and Stone. It’s a horse race on which set is better but today we’re sharing a great mini pull from Seas and Shores.
This is a Crab Folk miniature (#29) and it’s only an uncommon (when it clearly should be a rare). All the boxes are checked here: great pose, claws, vibrant colors, all sorts of textures for the paint job…and on and on and on.
Turns out there’s no D&D Monster Manual official 5e entry for Crab Folk. BlackJackRants.com explains they were actually “Crabmen” in the original 1E Fiend Folio which is puzzling why a mini in 2023 would be released with no official 5e stat block. Thankfully, DMDave Publishing cracked open a swell stat summary as did the DnD Wiki.
He’s only going for about $9.50 on eBay right now so do yourself a favor and this surf to your mini turf ASAP!
