Usually, this sort of thing would have no relevance here, but I was browsing gamespy and came across the following article.

Its not uncommon for special editions of game to come with a model or action figure of a character. However I though this was noteworthy, as Reaper is the company making the miniatures.

**Shellfishguy**

Thats pretty cool. Looking forward to Civ 5, depending on cost, that might be neat to pick up.

**Scottywan82**

Do want. Wanted anyways, but want MORE now.

I like the part where someone says, "I could do without the toys".

After losing a good part of my 20s to Civs 1-3 I resisted installing Civ 4.

And now this!

I must be strong...

And gunpowder gives you diplomatic leverage.

Reaper also did the Doom 3 preorder figures(you got either a Mancubus or a Pinky Demon), albeit they were simply re-releases of their older Doom line.

**Commander Endova**

Good to know. Seems like Reaper has some experience in the videogame department then.

Hmm... Now how do we get them to make some pewter Halo: Reach Spartans for me to paint?

Dude speaking as someone who nearly gave themselves carpal tunnel syndrome and bedsores playing CIV 1-3 I can say that IMHO Civ 4 is the best of the bunch......

Go on install it ........BWHa Haha ha

I concur, Excellency.

**don_mondo**

We should build Barracks...........

Looking forward to this even more now.

Very nice! It would make a nice aegis defense line for a Tyranid bastion in planet strike... Now I just need to find the bastion.

**RandyMcStab**

Fail

They're bring advisors back for Civ5, hopefully the Domestic advisor is still Elvis.....

**filbert**

I wonder if they will still have the 'build your own palace' bit, like they did a la civ 2
