Official Hero Grips - 14 Premium Cardboard Game Stands, Pieces from Darksilver Forge

I'm a DM on a budget so these are perfect for my game! I think at some point we will switch to custom miniatures for my Player Characters but these will always be useful for monsters and NPCs or the One-Shot games I plan on running in the future. Very happy with the quality of these!

I picked up the fantastic Pathfinder Pawns to round out my "cheap" minis that I use in my Dungeons & Dragons game sessions (I also print+cut out paper minis by Trash Mob Minis and others). But one thing I found lacking was blanks that I could either draw or write on, use as doors, or -- even better -- steal the multi-colored bases from (Pathfinder sometimes includes differently colored bases, but only rarely, only in a couple colors, and you basically have to spend more to get a "full set"). Enter these minis! They are great for prototyping your own games, minis, stands, or whatever you need (I'll be using them for doors in a lot of dungeons!). Especially cool are the multi-colored bases: you get 7 different colors, which is perfect for me to represent either boss and lieutenant monsters for my D&D games or to use for the Player Characters' paper minis, so that they can very quickly see at a glance who is an allied character (or simply find their own character among the mobs on the table!). I shopped around on Amazon for the best set with the most differently colored bases, and this set was the cheapest with the best bang for your buck. The cardboard stands seem sturdy and hold up to dry erase use, and the stands seem equally sturdy, easy to open and close to insert the paper minis or Pathfinder Pawns I use, and the colors are very stark.

You get just what you see in the pictures, and there were no cheap surprises. The cardstock is really good quality with a thick durability and glossy coat on 1 side. The bases are totally acceptable. It's not fancy obviously, but durable and practical.

My son needed these for a school project. They were perfect for the project and arrived fast. I think they were a little over-priced though.

These are great to spice up your games. If you are like me you love to customize your experience and what's better than having your favorite superhero fly over a monopoly board. I actually had a lot of fun planning drawing and coloring my pieces and will be buying multiple sets to continue to customize my games.

Running a pathfinder campaign, and while I was years too late to purchase the pawns that came with the AP, I was able to print them out on thick card stock and use the HeroGrips to make my own standees. Really makes things that much better than using whatever mini I happened to have lying around.

Just used these this past weekend and they did a great job! Really easy to just print out the tokens and glue them to the pieces. I would definitely buy them again!

IF the cardboard pieces were dry erase, I would give these 4 stars. Besides the cardboard, I like these stands. I don't recommend the suggestion of the free downloadable and printable paper minis because they look like gameboy graphic Zelda people, but the stands are nice... I use the printable hero website and just cut down the paper to fit. Suggestion: Just do away with the cardboard and include more stands. I, for one, would be a lot more happy with this product if it was just the stands. I tell you what, make you a deal... send me more stands, and I'll give you guys back the cardboard. Seriously, gimme more stands and keep your paper products. I just want the stands.
