This is a HUGE package of paper minis (>30) and i personally like all of them as i believe they can convey a more personal / individualistic touch to the NPC and add an old School feeling to the RPG. In contrast to the other paper minis from Arion Games you won't get the triagonal version, so only flat or A-frame can be constructed and as mentioned in another review, instead of a backside image you receive only a black shadow (silhouette). Still at this price this is a fantastic offer and i am very glad i gave it a try.

I am extremely pleased with this new set. The set of villagers includes a wide range of figures all of whom have a place in most fantasy villages. The art is evocative and I have already found myself trying to find ways to incorporate the personalities I see in these figures into my upcoming fantasy campaign.

A previous review was disappointed by the shadow backs of these figures. I do not share that sentiment. Instead, I would counter that the price of $2.50 (even less right now as a part of the Arion Sale) for 32 unique figures is a very good value.

So ... being said that I think that very few authors, artists and producers read reviews and comments about their products, and even less reply ( like HermaDolph about his "Alterkine Figure Flats" product, where the pdf file is missing ) ... the rating for these beautiful paper figures is definitely higher than I estimated. Definitely 5 stars for the quality of artistic drawing and colors ( really great old school figures ) and for the product's overall quality ( but this is a common characteristic of all Arion Games products imho ).

But ... I've tried, I swear ... and the description of the product is completely correct ... In 2015 a paper mini without back art ( whatever the reason for the lack of it ) is really incomplete work imho. If a user/buyer is not interested in it, or doesn't need it, then this product is worth five stars and its price. Otherwise, as for me, this is a real shame. Because front drawings are gorgeous but the figures' back doesn't exist. And I think this is a work in half .
