Does anyone know some good places to look for pre-painted minis besides the WOTC and Reaper lines? I'm interested in either factory-painted or hand-painted.

1How could this question be fixed? Finding pre-painted minis is a challenge for anyone in the hobby. – F. Randall Farmer Apr 02 '13 at 18:40

Agree - needs to not turn into a list question or be too localized are the challenges. – mxyzplk Apr 03 '13 at 00:07

em4 do some pre-painted minatures. Here's a few examples.
Available in the USA from Crystal Caste or direct from em4 in the UK.

MageKnight figures can usually be found on eBay fairly cheap. The bases are a bit too large, but can easily be replaced with wood, cardboard, or scrap plastic.

Hasbro's Heroscape includes pre-painted miniatures with many that would work very well with D&D. From the first 2 sets I have Vikings, Samurai, and an Elf as well as various other Fantasy and Sci-Fi type figures. You can get booster packs with Orcs, Romans, and other things as well.

But the bases don't it well on a standard battle mat. My son has a ton of heroscape and we use a lot of the figures but there are sometimes sizing issues. – Aug 20 '10 at 23:06

Rackham has the really nice confrontation line, but the minis are bit larger than wotcs and reapers. Noticeably.

I normally like the Kickstarters but this one doesn't look like a very good deal. Sad b/c if there were any good ones i would back them..I wish that I could have gotten in on the Reapers Kickstarter it was Very Impressive – Ben-Jamin Apr 02 '13 at 16:54
