| I've never seen the Mialee DVD promo for sale, but I remember there was a thread asking if it even existed. I'm guessing you could get a lot for it if you had one. Not from me though.
The Elminster repaint is the only promo/repaint that I'm really interested in. I'm probably going to get it eventually. I've seen it for sale for $75 which seems extreme to me. So I would guess that I'd probably pay about $50 for it if I had the opportunity. I'll probably show my girlfriend the picture and a link to it next time there's a major gift giving holiday and get it that way.
If they make a Raistlin repaint I'll be all over that and will pay good money for it.
The other repaints and promos? I have no idea. Not interested so I haven't really paid attention. | |

| | I would also say the mialee DVD1 is the rarest and hardest to find. there is a member that is offering $250 for one and so far no takers. | |
Thanks, realmaster. Let's split up!!!!!

| I would say the rarest promo miniature is indeed Mialee DVD1... maybe followed by the UK Nats Small Fire Elemental and the UK Bronze Wyrmling. Some of the Pref Store Frenchy promos too?
Elminster pops up pretty regularly on eBay. I got mine I recall for around $40 MIB.
Zhentarim Warrior... I don't believe it's a D&DC repaint (http://www.users.bigpond.com/shadows.lotus/dnd/promo/) however an Archfiends release promo and is kinda rare. | |

| Have to agree about the Mialee DVD1. Bronze Wyrmling is pretty scarce but shows up from time to time.
I only know of two people for sure who have a UK Nats Fire Elemental. (myself, Zenako)
I think I saw one or two up for trade though. | |

| I have several promo minis that I've obtained over the last year. I only collect repaints (1 of each) so I have several promos that I don't need and have thought about selling. The thing is, I don't know much about promo minis & I have absolutely no idea what to ask for them if I do decide to sell them. I assume these are worth more than other promo minis just because I never see them listed on Ebay, but I see other promo minis listed all the time.
Off the top of my head, some that I have are the Zhentarim Fighter, Bronze Wyrmling, Dragon Blade Ninja, Dread Guard, & Elminster.
Then I have 2 different kinds of Orc Raider promos & 2 different kinds of Guenhwyvar promos. I don't know if there's a price difference on these.

| I should mention, the Elminster & Dread Guard I have are for my personal collection. I'm not actually selling those 2, I'm just wondering how much they are worth.
I don't know much about promo stuff. I didn't even realize there were 2 Guenwyvar promos until today

| | Another one that might rival Mialee DVD1, Cultist Retailer, and Small Fire UK Nats is a Chainmail mini (if you are a completist in that area too). Apparently there might be a few pre-production Chainmail Orc Ragers in existence (looks like DDM Eye of Gruumsh). I would like to get hold of the Orc Rager if anybody knows where one might be. | |

That is certainly one of the ten hardest to get things out there from what I have heard. Probably one of the five hardest to get things for DDM.

3 years ago, there was promo mini for PC gamer to commemorate the 30th anniversary of D&D. It wasn't hard to get, it was rather costly for s&h, IIRC. They did it later for Hill giant barbarian as well. It's the exact same paint, IIRC, just a different base stamp and you get it before the set releases.
