I'm using one for another purpose, not as a bloodwiser babe, but this was mostly for those who don't paint. Of course it doesn't work as well as a properly painted barmaid mini
It's cheaper in time and money, for people who might want a mini but not care how it looks, or who like me can't paint if their life depended on them. If I want a nice mini it costs me whatever the actual metal costs, plus whatever it takes to get it painted for me, so significantly more than the few dollars one of these set me back.
I'm not advocating it for widescale replacement of all other miniatures of course. That would suck
