My phone died this weekend (washing machine > cell phone) and that was how I planned to access this during my carpool. Maybe they will let me convince them to be late...

 

::o: Oh dear. Do you have net access at work? :ph34r: If you can't convince them to be late can you convince them to be early? <_< Do you have to convince them of anything; who's driving? :devil:

They drive. I have access at work. So, worst case scenario is I will be about 30 minutes behind the start of things. But, that could mean the difference of being there when things start and are working and then not getting in because all of you broke Kickstarter.

 

Things start at the time I get picked up. I might just pledge from home and walk out 5 minutes late with a big grin on my face, which will likely change quickly to a confused/lost look due to wonderment of what the current total/stretch goal is at and the concern that I can't hit f5.

We've all seen the smiling Bob commercials; don't do this unless you're intentionally trying to imply something very different from Kickstarter participation. ::o:

I'll be waiting to see what's on offer......the majority of my Dungeon Delving is done with GW miniatures collected over the years, and I was hoping to add more NPC and player characters with Bones 1, but the size difference was huge, with reaper people vastly smaller.

 

So I'm hoping for more creatures where size difference doesn't really apply.

I am so excited... I want to be there from the start but it begins just after my bed time and my husband will be put out with me if I stay up too late... the good news is that by the time I get up they will have hopefully settled any server crashes and I will be able to catch up!

However, i really hope they do not do Early bird deals, Reaper has always been considerate of their international customers and it would be difficult for people like me who will be asleep due to time differences.

I am also so happy that I have had the last month to put money aside, the first KS I didn't find out about it until the final 10 days and could only pledge so much and I missed out on a few add-ons that I would have loved to get. This time I have a little bit more extra cash - though not nearly as much as I would like.

I think they are going to have delivery be Dec 2014 and just have Santa bring them

Can we have Sophie in a Santa costume instead?

 

 

Is Bones the only minis project hat hasn't got a Twilight Knight yet? Twilight Sophie, anyone?

 

I can't imagine a worse fit for Reaper. The entire Kingdom Death business model is based on artificial scarcity to drive up prices. Bones are the antithesis of that, they are minis for the masses.

I was all like "whatevers... I'm gonna pledge the same amount (or basically the same amount) no matter what. No need for me to get excited until near the end. And then I'll be able to see everything I'm going to get." But I gotta admit, my F5 finger is already itching. And I'm pretty sure Tuesday morning, I may even try to sneak a peek at what the launch reveals. Even though if I wait until I get home, I'll still see the same thing, and possibly even a stretch goal or two revealed.

 

Oh, everybody's sensible at first.

 

At first, last year, I didn't even pledge. Because I had lots of minis already and didn't want plastic.

 

Then I pledged for the Sophie Liche Level.

 

Then I converted that to Vampire.

 

And then I bought ALL OF THEM.

 

And, as we know subsequently, I hate Bones very much and am totally not excited.

 

 

When this starts going and people (like me) start losing their minds, people on the fence will fall into the backyard for BBQ and pool party. Just how it is. You'll have to hate Bones to your core to resist. So if anybody's on the fence, prepare to join in!

 

I've spent the weekend using a chakra siphon. I've accumulated the collective party energy of a dozen frat houses. I am as ready as ready can be made.

Any official, semi-official, or completely fictional speculation on what the story will be with international orders and international shipping?

in an effort to alleviate the delays of international shipping, Reaper has booked space with Space-X for distribution from the international space station. the advances in global positioning satellites and orbital insertion technology means your house can now be targeted from space. with this new plan, it is expected that all international deliveries should arrive simultaneously. (you may want to consider the optional insurance)

 

Still cheaper than UPS

This time around I have little reservation about pledging the full amount, getting all the extras that I like and hopefully paint sets and a couple of mini cases (because I am lazy and now have many many miniatures)

Earmarked ~$400 for this... Probably not something I should have done with two holidays planned, a ps4 on order and big foam cutting table coming.

Next goal, save some money and then let go of it to buy a 3D printer r_r.
