Ideally, tiny minis should have a 12.5mm (1/2") base, because you need to be able to fit four of them in a 25mm (1") square. Like I said, I got some 12.5mm bases from Litko and they're perfect for owls, cats, imps and things like that, but I prefer Reaper RPG bases.

I'd also like to see 1/2" RPG bases. I bought 1/2" bases from Litko to use for tiny creature minis, like familiars, and they work fine (no problems toppling over), but my OCD dictates that all my bases should look the same, and I already use Reaper's 1", 2", and 3" RPG bases for all my other minis.

I play a lot of Dungeons and Dragons, which is what I use my miniatures for. In D&D 5th edition there are two main things that people polymorph their allies into: a T-Rex or a Giant Ape. The T-Rex is covered by Reaper and others, but the only Giant Ape I can find is Kabaka Kwana, Ape Lord (03052), which is available in metal but too expensive. I'd really like a Bones version of that mini.

I know I've seen some people saying that Dance of Death is smaller than they were expecting. Is that just based on the price (the same as the humongous Barge) or was it scaled down, like Argent? Is Dance of Death still slightly more than 12" tall from the bottom of the base to the top of the upper dragon's wingtip?

Well, yay for me! I just got my shipping notification! I was a 9/10/17 lock-in but mine didn't ship until a few minutes ago. I was worried I'd been set aside until the last container arrived because my order contained multiple of everything on the List of Doom (I ordered for everyone at my FLGS' gaming and painting group, because I had a Wave 1 slot).

I think they're currently shipping 9/12 lock-ins. Has anyone with an earlier lock-in not had their order shipped yet? (Besides me.)

From Reaper Live: Ron says there probably aren't enough Baba Yaga's Huts to get through Wave 1. :(

From Facebook 1 minute ago: Matthew Clark: "Here's official as it gets. Today and yesterday we shipped a chunk of rewards to test the system and find any bugs. We'll start for real tomorrow. I don't know if the tracker will be reconnected to the data or not. I haven't heard, but I assume it will. It's currently on 16,884. I assume roughly 500 or so will come off when it starts back up."

I just created a UPS account. No deliveries scheduled for my address...

Yep. I'm refreshing it regularly, hoping that it will show that it's shipped, but if they've stopped shipping after lunch then there's probably no need.

Nobody has received tracking numbers since they returned from lunch, right? Are they done for the day? I'm Wave 1, locked in 9/10 and mine hasn't shipped yet, so I'm starting to get worried there was a problem with my order, since I know they made it to 9/11 lock-ins before they went to lunch.

Hmm, either they're just going by lock-in date and not factoring lock-in time into it, or they might have skipped me. People are getting shipping notifications that locked in hours after me, and I just logged into the pledge manager to confirm that my order definitely hasn't shipped yet. I have everything on the List of Doom, but hopefully that's not an issue already. Finger's crossed that my order hasn't been set aside.

I'm still a pretty early 9/10 lock-in and I haven't got my confirmation email yet. I locked in at 12:26pm Reaper time (so about halfway through the day). I think they'll still be on 9/10 lock-ins for awhile.

Yeah, I'm hoping to see one tomorrow, too. I know I had my first lock-in within a few minutes of lock-ins being allowed. I have everything on the List of Doom, but I don't think that will affect Wave 1. Hopefully...
