Interest piqued, interest gone. At those prices I was expecting kits or molds, not files. Printing this sort of thing takes a lot of time. The detail looks good and I wish themy luck, but I have to pass

 

That is, of course, entirely your prerogative. I'm not sure I entirely agree on the price with regards to files vs. e.g. kits, though.
If it was a kit then:

1) You'd be limited to what you got in the kit.

2) In order to expand upon a kit you'd then have to buy more parts/another kit, making the total cost rise even further.

 

With these files you can continue printing as many parts as you want, in order to make different configurations (when it comes to the castle) or to expand on e.g. a Western city.

The files are also optimized for 3D printing, without needing supports and the like (or the supports are part of the design, e.g. cross beams under a bridge).

Heck, if you print it in a high enough resolution you could make molds of the parts yourself and cast them in your choice of casting material.

 

I'm currently finishing a print of one of their former models, the Observatory (only need to print the cupola and the telescope):

The Ruined Chateau stretch goal has been unlocked and Matt has provided every combo-backer with a new bonus item.

A cool ballista model!

There's also an update on the hoarding system for the castle and this model also shows how it's compatible with the Rampage system in general by incorporating the prototype for the Rampage Heavy Wood Walls and Hoarding Roofs that will be included in this Kickstarter. You can also see the Rampage Crypt door in the tower.

I have checked with Matt and he confirms that non-backers are also welcome, so may well be a chance for those interested in the subject but not yet presently backing to get a better understanding of the subject and gather news and views from 'the horses mouth' as it were.  Just click on the link above and register to take part.

Matt at PrintableScenery.com has announced another Bonus Item, a Battering Ram!

 

814e747d45e1be9965d28a9ba165eabd_origina

 

This means that the free Bobus items now include a Ballista, a Catapult, and the new Battering Ram.

 

In Update #11 Matt also says " I think that we need one more siege engine, and this time something big ! "  The betting within the backer community in the comments is that it will be a 'Siege Tower'.  (Some glimpses of it may just have been visible over Matt's shoulder in the recent Kickstarter 'Live Feed' - viewable on replay at:  
https://live.kickstarter.com/printable-scenery/live-stream/time-warp-3d-printed-scenery-kickstarter-update .  )

 

With just under 5 days to go the 'Miners Shack' is, at the time of writing, just NZ$742 away from being unlocked. 

 

After the Miners Shack that unlocks at NZ $75,000 the remaining listed stretch goals are:

 

- NZ $80,000 'Advanced Wooden Stairways'
- NZ $85,000 'The Stone Barn'
- NZ $90,000 'Rundown Store / Jail'
- NZ $95,000 'Operational Drawbridge'

 

Also announced is that either one or both ships from previous crowdfunding campaigns will be added ('The Frigate' and the 'Viking Long Boat') as an 'add-on' for those who missed the opportunity of acquiring previously.

 

Few are doubting that all the present stretch goals will now be unlocked, and even possibly more stretch goals announced over the last few days remaining.
