Starfinder RPG: Pawn Collection - Core Rulebook

Got these for Stargrave because I'm too lazy to paint my mini backlog. Sometimes the picture is a little cut off, but they really serve the purpose nicely. No bases. I know it says that in the description, but be aware.

First and only thing I am bothered by is the lack of stands for this collection compared to Alien Archives. Otherwise, this is an absolutely stupendous buy on my part, and I would recommend this to any and all people who wish to have a big collection of figures to cover for your players as well as NPCs, especially when any potential duplicate characters can be identified via the little symbol on them.

While it's listed (and bolded) in the description now, I'm going to reemphasize this -- there are no bases with this product. Considering it's the first release of pawns for Starfinder, I think that was a mistake on Paizo's part, but so it goes. That aside, you get a lot of great pawns in this collection -- you get two pawns (duplicates with a color coded label, not one male, one female) of most classes, plus quite a few different ships and potential adversaries/allies from the core book. The pawns are a sturdy cardboard, and the characters are sized appropriately to fit into a single grid square on a battlemat -- the ships are drawn in profile, so that's generally not the case for them, but being pawns rather than minis, that's not likely to cause any issues even when ships are facing each other. Overall, this is a great set of pawns that has been very useful as I've been running Starfinder for my group, and I'm looking forward to the Alien Archive pawn release next month.

As to be expected from paizo, the pawns are fantastic. However, there is something very important missing from the package. The bases of the pawns are not included. Instead, in the fine print on the back of the packaging, they invite you to purchase them separately or use the existing bases from the Pathfinder sets. That helps if you purchase them at a store so you have a chance to look at the packaging, but online, you're at the mercy of the online retailer to mention this in their description. Miniaturemarket.com made no mention of this, so now I have to make another order to buy bases. The Pathfinder Core Rulebook collection came with bases, why not this collection?
