completed Reaper Bones 4: Enthusiasm and Commentary Thread

[MarvnMartian]

my Current list, Will likely find an excuse to go past my 300 dollar limit

 

Core Set

Extra Monster Set x2 (I always have my monsters come in packs and 3x owlbear, griffon and wyvern is a nice encounter)

Extra Apes (I just really like the sculpts on these and want to paint one set as yetis and the other as traditional apes)

Narglauth

Fire Giant Huntsman (Might swap him out with the frost giants if I can see their sculpts before finalizing)

Rocky

Dragon Turtle

Zombie dragon

Roc -cough pheonix cough-

Agramon (Again might swap him out for the lords of hell if sculpts appear)

Thunderfoot Behemoth

Dance of Death (I talked my self into getting it even though I wont be able to rebase the dragons)

Argent x2 (Im thinking Gold/Silver for one and Red/Black for the other)

 

At 296.95 currently under my budget

 

Likely when I give in and increase my pledge later

Blacksting (another one i cant rebase but looks cool enough that I could figure him in as an appearance peice then use one of the wyverns as a stand in)

Blacktooth Terror

Mossbeard (really iffy on him cant judge his size in my head for some reason)

 

so an extra 48 is in my future i can tell

[Limey72]

it was indeed a great KS, I think I will be incorporating the barge, shark and dragon turtle into one diorama

[Sirithiliel]

My Argent is going to be my ancient red dragon Hezikiabadadia, who was immensely clever and rich before he began to go senile

 

he has hoards of kobolds that serve him, and as he went senile he began valuing shiny over actual quality, and traded all his gold coins away for their worth in copper

 

he then had his kobold minions paint all the copper with gold paint

In the Bones III Kickstarter I got two extras of the ape sets and yeti sets (three sets total each) so as to paint one set of each white as yetis, one set as black apes, and one set as red-orange apes.

The only thing I'm sad about is missing out on the third part of the boat reveal.  Otherwise, totally happy with my acquisitions.  Another very good run, Reaper folks. Thank you.

I love the concept!

[Evilhalfling]

Im still torn between dance of dragons and the boat. 

right now my minimalst KS includes: 

 

Fire Giant Hunter 

undead dragon 

Lost Valley Expansion (to share with Mini-spawn, assuming she is still in a dino phase in 18 months. (it has lasted  5 months so far) 

- hmm if I don't lock it in, and she does lose interest it may get switched to Dreadmere. 

 

no mammoth for me.  guess I'm waiting for retail. 

Villagers and or Female Giants will probably sneak into the order in a few months. 

If I don't get dance of dragons, ill keep Argent and Gauth in mind, as adds over time.

My dino phase has lasted a solid 30 years, so there's hope.

Before his descent into old age he had several fake treasure rooms of cursed treasure set up too

 

now he lives his life happily protected by all the insidious traps and cursed treasure rooms while living in a MASSIVE hoard of gold-painted Copper coins

Gotta name him "Old Pyrite"!!

 

Players may think he's a old Gold dragon....

I'm now wondering if Argent is going to be a 25th anniversary issue in resin instead of DoD.  If need to get good enough to be an artist. 

[LittleBluberry]

I haven't worked out exactly what we're getting with the original pledge.  Might hold off on core set extras for a bit just in case we decide to spring for the whole thing.  Also haven't decided exactly how much stuff we'll add on later.  I figure I've got two weeks to sort that out, and a good long while to add stuff. 

[haldir]

I can't decide if I'm gonna go Core set. I haven't done Core since B1. The core just has so many goodies in this time around. I'll go in & see what I want the next few days. If anything the Core set would take care of my initial pledge when the PM opens up.

[Argentee]

I have to get Argent. Because reasons. 

[ScaleyBob]

I nearly managed to resist this time, but the last minute reveal of the Flail Snail got me. Sorry ,Thrasher Snail. 

Between that, the Chuul, and the Slaad, it's almost as if the Fan Favourites was aimed directly at me. Well played Reaper. 

 

So I had to get that, the Core Set, Dreadmere, and the Lost Valley as well.

Only disappointment was there wasn't a giant Ape in the Lost Valley set.
