Board game company WizKids has apologised for its recent line of Baldur’s Gate 3 miniatures, acknowledging the melty faced monstrosities „missed the mark“ and offeringfull refunds.
WizKids announced the range – officially known as Dungeons & Dragons: Icons Of The Realms: Baldur’s Gate 3 – at the end of last year, and US customers began receiving their £50/$49.99, seven-character sets earlier this month. However, rather than the crisply detailed renditions of Astarion, Karlach, Gale, Shadowheart, Wyll, Lae’zel and Withers featured in WizKids promotional material, customers instead received pre-painted miniatures that wouldn’t have looked out of place on a Borja church fresco – and complaints were swift.
And now, with more and more images of the squishy faced disappointments online, WizKids has been forced to concede that, yes, their Baldur’s Gate 3 miniatures are in fact rubbish. „As a company, WizKids seeks to create products that enhance and add to the enjoyment of game play“, it wrote in a statement on its website.
