A new line of miniatures for The Witcher tabletop role-playing game debuted at Gen Con last week. They include Geralt of Rivia, Yennefer and the Bard Dandelion – better known to fans of the Netflix series as Jaskier. Five new sets of three miniatures are now available online for $20 each.
Created by Monster Fight Club, the line of plastic blister packs also includes three classes — Craftsman, Man-at-Arms, and Mage — plus more necrophages than you can shake a paint brush. The material is somewhere in between the old school, bendy type of PVC and the high-expansion rigid plastic used by Arcane Studios. It primes easily and paints well, and details are deep and razor sharp. But the material also bends easily, which should improve the durability of the miniatures. I’m still up on whether I’d prefer superglue or plastic cement, but since they’re mostly one-piece sculpts, it’s a moot point.

Magician RPG was quickly followed in 2020 Cyberpunk Raid RPG, Actual Prequel cyberpunk 2077, Including Polygon has received critical acclaim both for the action-packed style of gameplay and the incredibly rich and varied lore here.
Monster Fight Club is also producing the product under license from CD Project. its cyberpunk combat zone — which kicked off a $300,000 Kickstarter in 2021 — is expected to arrive with backers in the fall, with a retail release before the end of the year. Polygon had a practical preview of the $120 starter set at Gen Con and it was much more than the hype. Not only were the mechanics fast, fluid, and easy to understand, but the set includes a surprising assortment of scenes, including colorful MDF-style two-story buildings, a plastic shipping container and a boatload of scatter terrain. It also includes some surprisingly good chain-link fencing, which is pretty tough to 3D print at home.
