Most paper minis go together like sandwich boards. Being made of paper¸ they collapse and scatter to the wind too easily. Vector Heroes are something different. Each figure is then the perfect size to put around a d6. You can put it around a die¸ making it stable when you stand it up on the map. You can remove the die at the end of the evening and store the figures flat between sessions. [Thx to UncleBear.com]
