For those who know about the Order of the Stick, Morland studios started to make 35mm of those glorious stick figures, starting with everyone favorite fighter, Roy.

For those curious, read the webcomic here: http://www.giantitp.com/index.html#4HKi9EL3r4A78fIyw7p

**Salacious Greed**

Yeah, looks really cool. Saw it on the OOTS site last week.

Will probably be good, WHEN they have more than just the one figure. Group miniatures, like this one, are like Pokemon. Gotta catch em all. I don't want just one of the group....

**drazz**

Interesting idea. I love the comic.

But, isn't Roy dark-skinned?

**Bobthehero**

I am rather happy they started with Roy, if only because fighters are my favorite class

Not like I have money to spare, but oh well.

As for drazz, his skin is far more dark on the picture in the OOTS website, must be the lighting.

I like OoTS, but that price is ridiculous for a 35mm 3D stick figure. That's worse than GW.

No thanks. Too big a rip off for me.

**RiTides**

Yeah... not being a reader of the comic, this obviously isn't aimed at me, but I don't see the appeal...

**djphranq**

I've never read the Order of the Stick. But that miniature looks great.

But it's got a choice of eyebrows! Howe many other minis have a CHOICE OF EYEBROWS?

Damn.
Thanks for pointing that out. Now, I'm going to have to give it a second look. LOL

@ those who haven't read the comic
If you're a pen & paper RPGer, or ever have been -especially D&D/AD&D, then you REALLY need to read the comic. IMO, it's one of the bes online.

**The Dwarf Wolf**

Im fan of the comic, but dont liked it.

The sculpt is just bare simple, and the price is just to high...

To me it looks like lazy way to gain some money (and it have not come from the author).

**Cryonicleech**

If I played D&D or something like it regularly I'd buy it, I liked the comic.

But meh.

**Kroothawk**

Even if the legs are metal (description is not specific), this stick man balancing on his toe seems prone to get broken fast.

**lord_blackfang**

I like the comic but this is some serious gak. They're asking Privateer Press level prices for something that looks like it was made by a kid out of play-doh.

**Bolognesus**

...OTOH how do you want to 3D model a fethin' stick figure? it's really rather true to the comic, and I like it - though at that price really I'll just make it myself (the downside of trying to sell something made to look like a 3D stick figure

)

**Kilkrazy**

They should go the whole hog and make the figures as 2D flats.

**Genosaurer**

I like OotS as much as the next guy, but when I picture Roy I always think of this:

Now that, I might buy a miniature of.

The body/head and sword are resin pieces while the legs, arms and eyebrows are metal so that, if you want to, you could bend the other leg so the foot is on the base for a bit more stability as in this picture....

**Balance**

I am glad these exist int he world, but feel no particular need to purchase them.

I did contribute to OotS Kickstarter to get books reprinted, though!

**Ouze**

1.) I love the comic, but won't buy these since I made my own out of sculpey a while ago.

2.) If you guys do not read the comic, you should start doing so. It's a great comic, seriously.

**Tannhauser42**

Got mine in the mail today! I've been reading OotS for years now, since sometime before strip #100.

**heartserenade**

I am in love with OotS, but I don't think I'd buy this. It's too pricey for something so easy to sculpt (and paint).

I'd be interested in realistic renditions of OotS characters, though! I wish they do that. In 25-28mm.

**AlexHolker**

I like Order of the Stick despite the art, not because of it. If I was going to buy some OotS models, I'd want them to be sculpted in a more realistic art style.

**malfred**

But then they wouldn't be an order of the stick model.

I like it. I hope that they include Banjo.
