Questions About the Kickstarter, now that it is over

[NomadZeke]

I'm working on locking in my pledge...but do we have a list of how many minis in the core are considered to fit on the various base sizes? I know (for example) the Hill Giants would need the 3" bases...but trying to build my pledge to have as many base-less as possible. Edit: Even approximations would help...though the more I know the higher my pledge goes

Nobody here has, to the best of my knowledge, tried to count bases sizes needed for a one of everything.

I remember a spreadsheet going around during the KS, but I can't remember who made it.

I recall that as well... It was in the VERY large KS discussion thread right around the time the first set of bases was released on the kickstarter... I'm wanting to say it was OG who was doing it, but I could be wrong.

[NomadZeke]

This is the full sheet me and a friend cobbled together, I can't promise its 100% accurate but if you were to get one of everything, it tells you how many you'd need for bases of each size...assuming you based just about everything, a few pieces of scenery excepted...yup my pledge is gonna add another 200 likely.

EDIT: I seem to have botched where the Burrowing Horror, Sophie, Barbarians, and Basilisk went...I'll try to fix it soon

What time tomorrow does the pledge manager close?

[Reaperbryan]

We encourage people to submit by midnight Central Time so we can finalize our numbers, but will not be turning off the pledge manager - it would be quite shady to prevent the stragglers from submitting a pledge at all.  If your pledge is not locked in by midnight, we will still honor your pledge, but your pledge will most likely end up at the back of the respective wave you are a part of.

So, do we have an update incoming today?

[Reaperbryan]

Today is the last Friday of January.  We are planning an Update for 1st Friday and 3rd Friday of February, as previously announced.

So, do we have an update incoming today?

No.

From the Kickstarter FAQ

We will be making an Update on the 1st and 3rd Friday of each month until we have completed fulfillment. We will make this update, even if it is to report nothing has changed.

Hi Bryan

 

Can I have a better resolution picture from the newest models of the core 30?

Especially the miniatures 92618 and 92604?

 

Thanks

A curiosity question (not sure if you're prepared to answer it for business secrecy reasons but what the hey I'll throw it out there):

 

Now that the Kickstarter pledges are all presumably locked in, are you able to share how many of each item was pledged for?  For example, 5,000 of the core set, 1,000 of expansion 1, etc etc.

 

Just asking out of curiosity as to what the popular items were, or how that will then tie in to your order of production (if you had any thoughts on that?)

We currently consider the statistical data to be proprietary knowledge, but will probably release some sales statistics as things move forward.  Right now the best I can do is be vague.

 

Order of production is definitely Core first, as there were far more of that than anything, and those models also come in extra kits that adds to a given molds' run. 

 

I can tell you that there were a few surprises in which options (especially among the Orange graphic sets) outperformed other sets (and consequently, some sets underperformed their predictions and surprised us greatly), but the popularity of Expansions 1, 2 and 3 was not far from our predictive models.

I came in way late on this, having been away from the hobby for too long and am confused about the pledge calculator and the wording about "if you missed this project" - I am assuming from this thread and dates mentioned that it is not possible to get in on this anymore, but that makes it sound like I can still pledge, although I will surely be in Wave 222 for delivery. Can a dim barbarian ask for clarification? lol

[naponatom]

I think I can clarify this one.

 

The Kickstarter ended in October 26th, but if someone missed she could enter directly in the Pledge Calculator and get to pledge and get some miniatures. But the Pledge Calculator closed in January 15th. Now you can only change your shipping address and contact information on it.

 

Sadly you will have to wait until the BONES II hit the store.

(or ask VERY nice to a friend who will get more than one...)
