gamerrev 16 Report post Posted July 19, 2013 Opening a recently ordered Learn to Paint #1 Kit, I was blown away to discover that rather than the samplers of the six paints, all the paints in the kit were full sized bottles. Some days are just good like that. Thank you, Reaper! 9 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Goblyn 2731 Report post Posted July 19, 2013 (edited) the LTPK used to have complete bottles, then the "sample" mini pots and now they come with complete bottles again Edited July 19, 2013 by Goblyn 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
gamerrev 16 Report post Posted July 19, 2013 Given that the web store showed samples, I was pleasantly surprised. 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Pingo 109314 Report post Posted July 22, 2013 It's like Reaper's best-kept secret. It's why the regulars keep recommending the kits to the newbies. They are a really good deal. 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
gamerrev 16 Report post Posted July 22, 2013 I thought it was a good deal with the sample sizes. Now, even better. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Arkady 1238 Report post Posted July 23, 2013 I think it's a good call they did away with sample sizes. Maybe it was just me, but those small pots seemed to have the colors dry up fairly quickly. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
zoroaster100 4787 Report post Posted July 24, 2013 I too think the full bottles are what makes these a good deal. I bought all the Kits after pledging to the Bones Kickstarter last year, and learned to paint minis using those Kits. I bought them from various online retailers and brick and mortar retailers. All but one of the Kits came with full bottles. One Kit came with some full bottles plus sample pots. The sample pots were not only less paint but were partially dried out. But the full bottles from the rest of the Kits filled out my early start on Reaper paints. I went on to buy a ton more Reaper paints after learning to love using them from the full bottles in the Kits. It would have been a very different experience if all the Kits had only the half dried sample pots. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JackMann 5670 Report post Posted July 30, 2013 As I recall, the decision was largely driven by economics. It got to the point where it was cheaper just to use full bottles, presumably due to the bulk in which they order them, compared to the relatively small number of sample pots they would buy for the LTP kits.

papadage 99 Report post Posted August 13, 2013 OK, so where can one get L2PK2? Not in stock on Reaper, and I just completed the first kit. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
