Jasper_the_2nd Posted July 19, 2013 Share Posted July 19, 2013 Well, took all night to open all those little baggies.. Only two issues, which is pretty amazing considering we're talking somewhere over 900 minis. One kaladrax still managed to have a leg issue. Two left rears and no right rear. And one copy of agramon is missing his left arm. Wow that's a lot of figures... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ahayford Posted July 19, 2013 Share Posted July 19, 2013 So.....I started painstakingly counting each and every figure and in my 3 Vampire boxes, ticking them off on the spreadsheet.....and then decided I just didn't care. I had so many for so cheap that I wouldn't sweat it if I was missing a few. They will be available at retail for cheap, and I have checked all my big figures and the parts all seem to be there. I got such a good deal on these I think I'm just going to call me and Reaper even. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

After spending 6 hours last night going through 3 Vampires and a lot of extras, I gotta say that if they are all for you, that sounds like an excellent plan. I had to go through mine as parts were going to two friends....so many little baggies... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ahayford Posted July 19, 2013 Share Posted July 19, 2013 I'll be sharing them in the sense that I'm planning on letting my kids use some and hand them out to people to use as characters....but I don't need every single one to be there.

I got such a good deal on these I think I'm just going to call me and Reaper even. I think that is a very healthy attitude. I went through my Vampire box to see what was in it, but I did not check all that carefully for missing parts or miscasts, except on my large add-ons. At the end of my count, I was missing one halfling (from the "half-sized heroes" set), but I had a duplicate of another mini in the set. I also had a few extra Nova Corp troopers. I call that a net win. If I suddenly have a desperate need for the missing halfling, I can just buy it retail. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unless its part of a big guy that's now expensive or or a large piece, I kind of have the same attitude. If its a piece or two (from the Vampire box especially) I probably won't much care and just buy it retail. I bought a large set of MSP's off ebay and had a few double ups, thus missing a few colours (I had the right amount of bottles), but it was also such a good deal I just decided it wasn't worth the trouble and to call it even. I have the three missing colours sitting in my Reaper cart for my next purchase. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
littledragon Posted July 19, 2013 Share Posted July 19, 2013 What would you do? Just got my bonsies. I opted to order a C'thulhu instead of the 25$ Nethyrmaul. I then spent the good part of a year kicking myself for not ordering Nethyrmaul. Then to my simultaneous delight and chagrin I opened the box and discovered the packers had sent me a Nethy and no C'thulhu! Now I was really looking forward to the C'thulhu and had it earmarked as a gift for a friend. So that part was disappointing. But - bonus Nethy! Woot. So the question: would you bring this up and try to chisel for the missing elder god? Don't want to be a greedy jerk. Do want to keep Nethy. Do want a C'thulhu. What would you do? Other than that the Vamp box and extras are all looking great and I'm super happy I backed this one! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doug Sundseth Posted July 19, 2013 Share Posted July 19, 2013 I would probably follow the instructions on the packing list, though I might feel a bit guilty. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Offer to pay the KS price of Nethy and keep it, if you feel better 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It may not be worth it for you to send the mini (or maxi in this case) back. However, I'm sure that they will correct the shipping error. I had an issue with a part missing from one of my figs. They got back to me right away and said it will be fixed once they get the final orders out - very reasonable answer. Most businesses, not just Reaper(though they have exceptional customer service), will make good with an error. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
littledragon Posted July 19, 2013 Share Posted July 19, 2013 Thanks for the input. I'll email Reaper and explain the situation. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Klingbeil Posted July 20, 2013 Share Posted July 20, 2013 has reaper given an official word on what to do if you're missing pieces? i haven't seen anything about it in the KS updates. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kimbers Posted July 21, 2013 Share Posted July 21, 2013 has reaper given an official word on what to do if you're missing pieces? i haven't seen anything about it in the KS updates. On your invoice (or whatever you call the piece of paper you get in the box) there is an email address for where to send errors. I don't know what it says exactly, other people have mentioned it.

xombe Posted July 21, 2013 Share Posted July 21, 2013 ... except for the Zombie hunter with the two guns, she's bent completely over at the ankles. .. mine was like that too... I used the trick about submerging the fig in boiling water, then quickly moved it into the pose I wanted and submerged in icewater. That worked for me. she's standing fine now. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Laoke Posted July 22, 2013 Share Posted July 22, 2013 has reaper given an official word on what to do if you're missing pieces? i haven't seen anything about it in the KS updates. Yup. Errors: send an e-mail to [email protected] and we will do everything we can to resolve the issue - either issue a credit if the figure cannot be salvaged, or replace it, or something. We are unlikely to replace it until we are done shipping, however, as the people who would normally be doing that are shipping rewards at the moment. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
