The budget is in tatters. At least .. at least I can spread it out over a few months, it won't impact /quite/ as catastrophically as it would else.

 

You had to know that was the case going into this, right?

 

I knew my wallet wouldn't survive intact. I've already started flaying it, but it hasn't given up any more for pledges! 

 

I too am glad I can add to it over the next several months.

Well, I'm no longer lurking anymore.  Now to spread my lovely presence to this forum.  After backing a BUNCH of money on Bones 3, I am super excited for Bones 4!

 

Alas, I don't have access to near as much funds now as I did those years back, to the point that my pledge is under half of the average right now.  Thankfully, the Pledge Manager will be around to take our money for the next year; I wouldn't want to miss out on the dinosaur models!

 

(Also thankfully, my wife and step-daughter are excited for many of the new models, particularly the female giants and the "cute" models, so was will be painting some models together.)

[Baugi]

Mine is currently one dollar.  I'm sure you'll do just fine, man!

[Brennor]

Today is now the 4th best day of the kickstarter. Only $11,011 to go until today takes over the 3rd spot, so that'll happen this next hour. Currently sitting at the point where we were at between 2100-2200 yesterday. Amazing gains with the latest reveal.

 

Need 13 more backers today to push today up another slot.

I'm hopeful that there will be extra translucent options this time. I guess there's no chance of getting the two large dino options as translucents? It would be really cool though!
 

Others that would be interested in translucent, would be the tree (imagine a ghostly tree!) and the 2 rulers of hell. Even the skeletal monsters would be fun as translucents. :D

 

Guess I'll have to wait and see, and hope!

I'd guess DoD would be around $200-300 given similar size resin dragons.. but I'm not holding my breath..  

 

I would bet on the higher side, but yeah, that sounds plausible.

 

Nethyrmaul was $300 in resin.

Welcome to the insanity! Hold on and enjoy the ride!

I want the pillar toppers in translucent..  and I'd love to get the oozes in clear once they hit retail

Extra translucent figures would be great this time. Not sure that'll happen to figures that have already been revealed though, though possible if enough people request a translucent T-Rex.

Dang.  That is exactly what Glitterwolf would want, but he so wrapped in the double VAT issues that he isn't going to enjoy it like he should... 

 

 

It's allright.

I will put my trust in Reaper to help resolve problems if they occur.

I actually got more annoyed by the fact that someone attacked me for asking questions.

 

WTH would someone attack you for asking RELEVANT questions, this is your money we are talking about:( What, you were infringing on their gazebos questions or their "nothing to do whatsoever" comments in the KS comments? Was the attack on KS? I hate we cannot get that modded:(

boneheads, that's one I've not heard before. I like it! 

You have never seen Babylon 5?

Do you have to have the 100$ pledge level to receive core set? Can I be at the 1$ pledge level and just increase my pledge when the pledges are being finalized in years time or whenever and receive the core set still?

Yes, that's exactly how it works. As a matter of fact, you do not even have to get the core set at the 100 buck level. they just did it to give people options. I am currently on the buck or more, and will eventually before PM closes get the core set.

@ladystorm can you move this to the information thread:)

[Cranky Dog]

I'm amazed that Dance of Death is out, that it's only $30, and that it is *not* the capstone of Bones IV.

 

I believe pledges have jumped in *many* multiples of $30.

Hmm, spring 2017...Just one season off:)

Ah, but if we're talking about southern hemisphere seasons. Then we're early!

 

Hey, I'm *in* that picture! Second red shirt from the right. The unshaved one.

 

Wait... I'm a Red Shirt?!
