| Star Wars Miniatures | The Star Wars Miniatures collection offers a great board game that doesn't require too much time or space to play. The miniatures are also exactly the right size for use with the Star Wars Roleplaying Game, which I would highly recommend. The old roleplaying system was made by West End Games, which I haven't tried.

 Neat product! October 14, 2007
1 out of 1 found this review helpful
My nephew (10)was very excited to receive this SW product for his birthday as an accompaniement to his Revenge of the Sith board game. He especially liked the "big piece" in the box (a giant crab droid, I believe). I'm a Star Wars purist (Episodes IV - VI), but he likes the prequels and this was a nice mix of characters from the entire series.

BE CAREFUL!. The first review says there are 60 figurines and the picture associated with this item shows 3 boxes. you get only 1 box with only 6 miniature figurines and 1 large ship. we like the item though.
Great Expansion Set January 15, 2007
8 out of 8 found this review helpful
"Bounty Hunters" is the sixth expansion set in the Star Wars Miniatures Universe, which started with the Rebel Storm Starter set back in September, 2004 (see more about the minis game itself in my addendum below). There are 60 different figures in this set. These are "huge packs," so each booster comes with seven durable, pre-painted figures (including one rare OR one very rare figure), one of which will be a large OR very large figure.
The first thing I look for in any expansion set are how many characters I recognize from the movies (vs. those that appeared only in the books). I am particularly interested in figures from the original trilogy, and am happy to say there are at lest 25 figures from the original trilogy in this set. Some are very interesting variations of figures released in previous sets (for example, Luke Skywalker, Dagobah and Princess Leia, Hoth Commander), some are simply more powerful versions of earlier figures (for example, Chewbacca with C-3PO, Han Solo Scoundrel, Boba Fett and most of the other bounty hunters), but some have never been released before (for example, Bib Fortuna, Garindan, and Zuckuss just to name a few). Notably, there are even a few great new common and uncommon figures from the original trilogy in this set (for example, Rebel Captain, Rebel Heavy Trooper, Snowspeeder, Gamorrean Thug, Tusken Raider Sniper, and Weequay Leader)
Further, though I am not a big fan of the prequel, there are several figures from these movies as well (say +/-10 - with one of the best being the new version of Jango Fett). The rest are either from the books, or generic/minor characters that I have never seen or heard of before.
In sum, this is perhaps the best expansion set for those interested in the original trilogy since Rebel Storm was first released in 2004 (with the Universe expansion set being a close second in this regard). Those who like the Star Wars minis game and those who use the figures for the Star Wars RPG will likely be very happy with this set.
ADDENDUM: (Please note that I include this addendum at the end of all my Star Wars minis reviews, so if you've read it before, there is no need to read it again.) If you want to play the Star Wars minis game as it was designed to be played, it is best to have at least one starter (each starter comes with game instructions, a map, a D20, terrain tiles that are very helpful and add great variety to the game, and more). I like the Rebel Storm Starter the best because it's from the classic era/trilogy, but the Clone Strike and Revenge of the Sith starters from the newer movies will also work. If you don't want to invest in a starter, you can also get one of the three "Ultimate Missions" books, as each comes with a double sided map and a few smaller terrain tiles (again, I like the Rebel Strom Ultimate Missions book the best because it is also from the classic era/trilogy). Or, you can buy the "Attack on Endor" scenario pack, which comes with TWO double sided maps (in addition to a scaled AT-ST that is fully usable in play). The main point here is that you'll need some type of map/grid. If you don't want to buy a Star Wars one, generic ones are also available at most gaming stores (you can use your imagination to set the scene, or draw terrain with an erasable marker right on the grid). Of course, the minis are also useful for the roleplaying game (RPG) - in which case you may not need a starter or map, but will likely need the "Core Rulebook" instead. Finally, they are just fun to collect for those who like all things Star Wars!

Not suggesting any change in the current lines here, but it was mentioned elsewhere by Insaniak that it would be cool to see resin or pewter one-offs. as in miniatures that you put together and paint yourself.
