Bones Kickstarter #3 Discussion

[GentleGiant]

 

 

I guess I just worry about needing to get my foot in the door to avoid a price increase like with Bones 1.

I got the same deal with Bones 2, but I don't remember if latecomers had to pay more or not.

If you do not back this project through Kickstarter before it ends, you are considered a Late Backer and WILL pay a higher price.

We did this with every one of our previous three Kickstarters.

The only way to get these bargain prices is to back this project through Kickstarter.

 

 

Oh, I'm already registered as a backer. I guess it keeps you in the system.

I added a $15 option. That should cover it.  :D

 

Remember to also add any increases on Kickstarter itself. Just adding something to the pledge manager doesn't increase your pledge on Kickstarter.

$1.73M goal achieved! Armory of Vice and Mythos part III unlocked.

 

It has been a busy night.

 

New goals revealed at $1.9M

 

Back by popular demand, everyone's shockingly favorite lighting rod sponsor:

 

I wouldn't have thought it possible, but after Bones 3, I believe I will have entered the "I have enough dragons" category.

 

I'm just as surprised as you! But seeing Bryan's latest pictures of Ma'al and Co. makes me realize even more that I have to store all of those beautiful beasties.

I think Stormwing was the last "classic" dragon we were waiting for from the Reaper catalog.  I'm very happy that it has made an appearance.

 

This KS has really added a lot of variety to their Bones line.  My only hope is that some more of those great sci-fi figures from ReaerCon make it to the stage.  What I'm REALLY glad for is that we can add more money after the KS is over.  I'm in for over $400 already but don't think it is wise to add more at this time.  I have a convention this weekend and GenCon next week.  Considering how poor the exchange rate is with the USD, I think I will wait to contribute more in a few months.  I don't feel too bad since my pledge is currently more than double the average.

Ahem, Gauth and T'Raukzul. Maybe classic Kaladrax.

 

And I also realized the $CAN is not in our favor these days. Enough to make me reconsider Ma'al (heresy, I know) and its huge shipping cost.

 

Once it hits full price retail, assuming we still have free shipping to Canada, it may be cheaper to wait.

Man, shipping math can be really interesting...

Unless I missed something, I think that Gauth remains un-bonesified.

So, Kaladrax the Ginormous is $75 dollars retail. Think about how expensive Tianot is going to be. I realize that $60 seems like a lot to a lot of people, but it seems to me that it's a pretty substantial deal. I guess I better go ahead and start shopping around for a new airbrush.

For ROW pledgers, it's another ballgame.

 

Including shipping, current exchange rate, taxes/duties, Ma'al will cost me over $150CND. It is quite possible I'll get if for cheaper by paying full price during a visit to RCon.

Possibly, but not for sure.

 

Yes, our Pledge Manager tool does retain information from one project to the next, but that does not make you a Backer for this project.

If you do not make a pledge on Kickstarter, not with our Pledge Manager tool, but through the actual Kickstarter Site back this project button, you are not a Project Backer.

 

Using our Pledge Manager (Pledge Calculator) alone does not back the project.  If you haven't backed the project with the the actual Kickstarter Site back this project button, you are not a Project Backer.

Oh my word...!  Graveyard expansion, Hobgbageddon, Colossal Worm, and Tianot all in the same reveal?!?!!

 

Is the world shaking?!  Is it just me?!?!  Can the internet handle this?!!?

 

*passes out*

They need to get all those visible before Thursday 5:00 RTZ (reaper time zone) when the 48 hour emails go out.  Don't want anyone checking back and not seeing the wowwtfhsfmitewac!!!!! minis to grab their attention.

[redambrosia]

All the beautiful dragons! Yay! *happy dance!*

 

Oh yes, by the time the boats hit the water, Hubby and I plan on having bought everything we want. Starting with the 5-Headed Goddess (you can say what you want, in our house, she's a she).

There is still time...

 

(Although it's also possible that Gauth is simply too big to Bonesify with only two feet in contact with the base. To my knowledge, Reaper has never said.)

When adding to a pledge after the kickstarter has ended, will I need to do a new pledge calculation or will my current pledge be counted as credit on an updated pledge calculation? I am tapped out for now, but before first wave is shipped I should be able to buy more bones. Actually I am tapped out because I want to buy more bones when the July release of bones 2 stuff hits retail.
