The Thing – The Boardgame is an intense game experience for 1-8 players based on the 1982 cult movie directed by John Carpenter. It is a game that mixes different mechanics to create an experience that is as faithful as possible to that of the original movie. The Thing: Human miniatures expansion contains a set of eight highly detailed character miniatures, to use in place of the Characters standees you can find into the base game box. These miniatures represent the 8 main characters seen in the movie, such as Macready or Doctor Blair.
Using these Character miniatures in place of the standees enriches the game, giving it a more scenic aspect and a stronger impact to the gameplay.
