If you are getting into Dungeons & Dragons, or have been into it for a while but are looking to take your game to the next level, figurines can be a great way to increase the immersion. Whether you are a player looking to get a representative of yourself, or a dungeon master trying to create more immersive environments for your players, D&D miniatures can be great visual touchstones for your journeys through Faerûn.

There are several to choose from, but these are the best D&D miniatures we found that aren’t too expensive to buy at the moment. Don’t forget to get some of the best D&D dice you can find right now, too.
