Dofus' Miniature MMO Terrors

dofus.jpg One of the more notable multi-nominated titles at this year's Independent Games Festival is French strategy-RPG MMO Dofus, which has startlingly pretty character designs and graphics throughout its Flash-utilizing video game incarnation.

However, we only just noticed the Dofus Shop, which, in a similar way to the Alien Hominid action figure bundles, allows the independent developer to feed the fan community with cool merchandise, but still keep game development (and funding!) humming along.

We particularly like the lovingly designed miniatures, which include unpainted and painted variants of The Treechnid, The Crackler, and The Wa Wabbit - wonderfully out-there Franco-Japanese designs. The special artbook looks pretty neat, too - hopefully they will show some or all of these off at Game Developers Conference this year.
