jdw1710 Posted February 19, 2016 Report Share Posted February 19, 2016 Hello, Looking into playing some of the new Osprey games (Dragon Rampant, Lion Rampant, and/or Frost Grave), however, before I take the plunge I want to make sure I can find miniatures for these games. I understand that you can use any fantasy/medieval miniatures for these games, but I'm having trouble finding a good, affordable, source here in the US. North Star which supports Osprey with miniatures cost a chunk of change to ship the mini's from the UK to the US. Are there any good fantasy/medieval miniature manufactures in the US or do you know if any FLGS carry the North Star miniatures here in the Portland area? Thank you!

jesselowe Posted February 19, 2016 Report Share Posted February 19, 2016 Try the Warstore and look at Perry miniatures for starters. You can also use Reaper for a lot of the Frost grave and Dragon Rampant stuff. Not to mention Mantic... oh, and Old Glory has a huge amount of historical figures available. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PourSpelur Posted February 19, 2016 Report Share Posted February 19, 2016 Oh Frostgrave, what a lovely lady you are. Besides being easy to learn, fun to play and quick it's crazy easy to get miniatures for. I'll second the recommendation for Perry Bros, beautiful minis and the plastics are affordable. Almost any fantasy miniatures can find a place in Frostgrave. I really enjoyed going into my FLGS and just browsing through the Reaper Bones stuff. Found a mean Nun (quick pistol to bow and arrow conversion) an S&M dwarf, weird piranha voodoo shaman, half-naked berserker and all the creepy crawlies they'll never want to meet. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jdw1710 Posted February 21, 2016 Author Report Share Posted February 21, 2016 Awesome, thank you for the responses. I really like the North Star miniatures. Has anyone ordered from North Star, and if so, how is it (expense and timing of shipping)? I think I'm going to try out Frost Grave first, however, now I have to figure out how, or if to, build a table top representing a frozen city. fun fun fun thanks again!
