Picked up a batch of the HP (and some Guardians of the Galaxy) "Nano Metalfigs" from WalMart last week.

Despite some shortcomings and a scale of 38mm sole-to-eye, there's alot to be said for these cheap little figs. This is epecially true considering the dearth of other affordable Harry Potter miniatures.

Did I mention they're only one buck each!

Continuing my preocupation with these cheap little metal figures I finally got my review of the 20 pack posted.
Full review here:

Great deal and very convenient. I'm most pleased about these 4 figures, as Ginny, Neville, Moody and Hagrid  are currently not available outside this set.


Particularly interesting to me was that the back of the box has some pictures that clearly deliniate which figures are availble singly now and which will be part of wave 2. Still looking for the ideal set of rules for Harry Potter wargaming but I've got some solid leads from THW, Ganesha and others.

I also reviewed the "Gryffindor Tower" playset a while back but didn't post it here.
