Just a guess here, but looking at that last map, it looks like Reaper might be priming us to hot a solid $3 mil.

 

My feeling is they are preparing for pie.

   This is from before the Lost Valley completed, but...

 

 

All you have to do is work out from previous KSes what the various sizes cost in retail and you should be good to go.

 

I have not gone through and attempted to take a guess at what their current retail cost would be. But I can tell you for everything, even the lost world prior to unlocking, is cheaper than it would be at retail. 

 

I was worried for a moment when I first broke apart chronoscope. But then I realized I was still dividing $100 by the total number of size units and not $50. Halved the prices immediately right there.

Raptors!

 

It is always a great feeling to see something hit the Kickstarter that you have been wanting. Raptors are one I have asked for since KS1...albeit I did specify halfling riders, but that seems overly picky at this point.

For reference, typical Bones human-sized figures seem to run about $2.79 each. Using Thes's calculations, medium-sized figures in Core are running on the order of $0.53 each, which is to say, just under 20% of retail. Even the Chronoscope expansion is running at right about 40% of eventual retail price.

 

Money spent today is worth more than money spent in 18 months (because if you've spent it, you can't earn anything with it). But there's a fair chance that figures in 18 months will be more expensive as well.

 

I make this as a rockin' deal, which isn't a surprise to anyone who has gone in on the previous projects, but might not be so apparent to a new backer.

 

YMMV, obviously.

 

NB: Other assumptions result in somewhat different numbers, btw. If you don't like these, you can certainly use your own.

Alright, who's going to be the first to put googly eyes on the Gazebo?

 

Pfft, I'm going to sculpt a whole scary face that I can whip out and tack on after it turns out to be a mimic! 

 

Huzzah!

So with less then 2 days left, the core set broke out and NO NEW reveal (which should have been core), is core set done? And just add-ons at this point?

No, they will still add to Core from the hints dropped.

 

But Reaper only reveals what they expect to unlock. So they scale it back until they are only showing 2 stretch goals ahead. Saturday they'll probably be down to showing only one stretch goal at a time.

So, my little 2-year old niece is just CRAZY about dinosaurs. 

 

I showed her the pictures of the Triceratops and the dinos in the Lost Valley expansion, and she got SUPER excited! 

 

...Yeah, I'm going to be adding all of the dinosaurs now. I couldn't resist! NieceBoot used Adorable Excited Face! It's super effective! :lol:

 

Huzzah!
