With the show's second season drawing to a close, may we interest you with some Critical Role miniatures in this trying time? We now know when we can get our claws on the new D&D minis, and it's days away - they launch this June 2, 2021. The full set is available to pre-order now.

Minis bring any D&D session to life, but the new Critical Role miniatures (the first batch in an official partnership with WizKids) go one better. Besides being pre-painted and ready to play right off the bat, the range features some properly colossal models to ruin your party's day. Is that a foot-tall Udaak? Yes. Yes, it is.
The current range includes groups and monsters from across the world of Wildemount (the Critical Role podcast's setting), and many of the figures are inspired by artwork seen throughout the Explorer's Guide to Wildemount sourcebook. We've listed the full set below, but you can choose from the continent's three factions (there are separate packs for the Dwendalian Empire, Kryn Dynasty, and Clovis Concord), two monster bundles, or the premium Udaak figure.
I managed to go hands-on with each set, and the monsters in particular are standouts. Intricate and well-painted with a clear love for their inspiring source material. Especially the Udaak - as you'd expect from a premium figure costing $79.99, it's hugely detailed and has an impressive presence on the table. Which isn't any wonder, considering the fact that it's the size of a small cat.
