It's cool how you can't click on any of the site until tomorrow.

But wait, my gear doesn't match! Can I get them to toss me into some mighty fine T5 gear for a couple of extra bucks?

It sounds like they'll only put on gear you can show you have in the armory.

OK, so I'm reading the FAQ on this and:
How big are FigurePrints?
We create the figures at 1:18 scale. In the game a human warrior is about 6 feet tall. At 1:18 scale that means the corresponding FigurePrint would be about 4 inches tall, not counting the base it is standing on.
4 inches? WTF dude? Thats tiny!
I mean, I was thinking at least action figure size, around 8" but this is crazy...

On the site there is a link to a YouTube video of a guy checking out the gnome model.
Its small but not so small that you can't see all the detail in it. And its a gnome, so the others are bigger.

If you're a hunter do they include you're pet? I'd only get one if it included my pet.

That is an excellent question Oriole. I think you should ask, I bet they don't and really that's a bit silly. I would think a lot of the hunters who are dedicated enough to the character that they would want a figurine would want the pet included.
Four inches is pretty good, that's about the size of a GI Joe action figure, as I recall. Not the size of He-Man, which given the steroidy physique of the male avatars would probably be more appropriate, but hey, can't have everything.

Here is an amazing interview with the guy that started Figureprints.
I imagine Blizzard's new fondness for gear featuring floating crystal bits is the thorn in these people's side.

I wonder what they do for gear enchants like mongoose....
They don't show up on your character selection screen either, so I imagine they don't show up on your figurine.
I wonder if they could get Shadian in his dancing outfit holding his tentacle staff.

I have to decide if I want my dress outfit or my real outfit... I guess I'll have to get two.

I still find the idea of a rogue with healing gear hilarious!
