A fresh batch of pre-painted Critical Role miniatures is on the way, and it includes some of the show's biggest villains. Alongside monsters and NPCs, the Briarwoods (who were the antagonists of Amazon's The Legend of Vox Machina) feature in an upcoming Wave 3 from the WizKids miniatures line. These figures will launch during "Q2 2022" and are available to pre-order now.
In addition to classic foes, guest stars from the series are also getting their own Critical Role miniatures in this wave. These range from campaign one's Lionel (a cheerful half-orc 'bardbarian' with a love of ducks) to the druid Riani from campaign two. Even Kiri, a kenku kid the Mighty Nein saved during their adventures, is included.
You can see some renders of the new Critical Role miniatures below, allowing you to compare them to other models from Critical Role Wave 2 or last year's Wave 1. We've also included a list of figures and prices further down the page if you want to see exactly what's coming later this year.
Because these models arrive pre-painted and fully assembled, there's no need to break out the brushes; they're table-ready and already fixed to clear plastic bases. It's difficult to say exactly what they'll look like in person seeing as there's always a difference between renders and reality, but promo shots showing the Critical Role miniatures in action should land at some point before release (they traditionally appear on the WizKids website ahead of launch).
While these Critical Role miniatures are designed to be used in games from Tal'Dorei Reborn, they can obviously be commandeered for other Dungeons and Dragons books as well. Indeed, most of the monsters would fit in with many of the best tabletop RPGs.
