Kinda disappointed there won't be any mouslings, but with all the chibis, I think my need for cuteness has been fulfilled.

 

I saw it mentioned in the KS comments the other day that there will be one or more new Mouslings at Halloween/Reapercon.

Those female frost giants seem to have been quite the hit. Let's hope we have some other female sculpts coming on after.

When I first saw the add on I miss read it and thought it said Frost Giant "Riders".  I thought it would be a giant on a woolly mammoth!

 

I was only disappointed for a second once I saw the picture and reread the title.  These Frost Giants are awesome!!

Yes, I would agree, a big hit; we're already $20,000 up from the last goal!

But this project is a complete failure and doomed!

Doomed, you say!?!?  Doomed???   We are all doomed!!!!   We were all doomed the moment the Bones 3 Kickstarter ended and the first employee at Reaper said,  "You know what? A fourth Bones Kickstarter might be a pretty good idea".      And we'll be twice doomed once the fabled Cat Dragon* shows up and seeks her vengeance upon those who mocked her!

I'm so happy to see the female giants look to be popular! Hopefully they actually are and Reaper will be able to make more types of female giants. 

As selfish as I am I wouldn't expect them to make things that won't do well in retail :)

You will all die in lakes of blood...now you will know why you fear the night!

Pay no attention to that cat dragon behind the screen!

@Ron: " If you have the male frost giants and female frost giant from Bones 3, they'll be that size."

You might want to recheck your art scaling in the image. Frost Giant Warrior #501 from Bones 3 is about 2-1/2 times the height of the Bones Anhurian Archer (83mm to 34mm from bottom of foot to top of head respectively.) I make these figures to be about 4 - 4½ times as large as the Sir Forscale in the image (100mm and 85mm to 22mm on my screen).

Which is not to say that I dislike them, I like the art quite a bit, just that your scale reference seems significantly off.

 

 Shhh don't tell them i like them big!

All our European friends should be waking up in a few hours. Hopefully they like Frost Giants too!

Just thinking of all the happy surprised faces there will be when they open those Kickstarter emails...

Ron posted on FB the new giants are about 80mm and that puts them in the same size as the giants from KS3, he put a pic with them in scale with the other Frost giants and they will go perfectly with them.
