Hunger Games Miniatures!
Posted February 23rd, 2012 at 11:09 AM by Mossman
Just stumbled across some Hunger Games miniatures put out by Wizkids. There are 27 in the collection: each tribute, plus 3 "bonus" minis (extra poses of Katniss, Peeta and Gale, I think.)
The good: They are comparable in size to the D&D 'Scape minis. Paint jobs are not bad at all- better than almost any D&D mini- though I'll give them a wash to bring out facial details.
The bad: Most of the poses are lame- just the tribute standing there. They're all mounted on pedestals, perhaps to represent the platforms that lift the tributes into the arena, so they'll have to be removed to use in 'Scape. There are no names on them and no roster in the package. Each base has the district number on the front so you'll have to look up the tributes' names on your own. (Those that even have names.) They're also blind purchase.
Here's a pic of Cato and Glimmer along with a Pathfinder mini and 'Scape mini. Sorry for the low-quality pic. In a hurry.
Haven't found much online about them, but here's a link:

Some people just like to put their heroes up on a pedestal!
