Quick answer
The Shadowrun Savage Threats Miniatures set delivers five pre-assembled, unpainted minis—two monsters, two runners, and a ghoul—ready to drop into your Shadowrun Sixth World or Takedown games. This first look covers the box contents, mini quality, and what to expect before painting.
What makes this set different from other Shadowrun mini packs?
Unlike the Corporate Threats set, which focuses on security and corporate personnel, Savage Threats leans into the monstrous side of the shadows. You get an Oni Assassin, a Cerberus Hound, an Illusionist, a Dwarf Ghoul (The Unseen), and a Stalker Chimera. That mix gives you both player-character options and hostile NPCs in one box.
The minis come pre-assembled and unpainted, so you can start using them immediately—no glue or sprue cutting required. The trade-off is that you lose the customization of a multi-part kit. If you prefer assembling and converting your own models, this set may feel too fixed.
Are these minis compatible with the Shadowrun: Takedown board game?
Yes. The set is explicitly designed for use with Shadowrun Sixth World and the Shadowrun: Takedown board game. The bases and scale match the existing miniatures in those lines, so they'll sit right on the same hex grid or play area without looking out of place.
If you're using them with older Shadowrun tabletop editions or other skirmish games, you may need to check base sizes. The pre-assembled bases are standard for the current line, but they might differ from older metal mini bases.
Frequently asked questions
What's in the box?
The Shadowrun Savage Threats Miniatures set contains five pre-assembled, unpainted PVC miniatures: Oni Assassin, Cerberus Hound, Illusionist, The Unseen (Dwarf Ghoul), and Stalker Chimera. No glue, no sprues—just open and play.
Do the minis need painting?
Yes, they come unpainted. If you want a table-ready look, you'll need to prime and paint them yourself. The pre-assembled PVC material takes acrylic paint well after a light wash with soapy water to remove mold release. Wash the minis in mild soapy water before priming for best paint adhesion.
Can I use these minis in games other than Shadowrun?
The scale and bases are designed for Shadowrun Sixth World and Takedown, but they work in any 28-32mm skirmish game. The fantasy-cyberpunk aesthetic fits most modern or sci-fi settings. Just confirm base sizes if you're using a game with strict base requirements.
How does the price compare to other Shadowrun mini sets?
At USD 24.49 (catalog comparison price USD 34.99), the Savage Threats set is priced competitively for five pre-assembled minis. That's roughly USD 4.90 per figure, which is lower than many single-character resin minis. You sacrifice pose variety but gain immediate usability.
