Don't know how or exactly when that happened. I think I can work with that, but I am concerned I don't do that again as I don't need 3 of each.

 

Are you sure? Three of each sounds perfect!!

Hmmm... looks like it may be a Monday update. Oh well. Hope it's something good!

[Sirithiliel]

never mind

Isn't that the upcoming metal ReaperCon release?  I know the previous ones are coming in the Dreadmere set, but that seems a bit off for the Bones 4 thread.

Indeed it is. It *is* a Friday update.... but not the Bones 4 Friday update.

too may topics with 'enthusiasm' in teh title

 

anyways there's the update

 

for Pig vs Rock with trolls: " Answer is you get *both*. But to be clear: the rock and the pig both have hands attached to them, so it’s not like you get a stone or pig by itself. The troll’s wrists are cut at the forearm. We know this might be disappointing for those of you wanting pig missiles. " that should answer that question for anyone still on the fence

Mumlak is so cool.  He's even better to see "in the flesh".  I love the fertility idol turned into a pick.

Huzzah for the HAM! 

 

Also, the elephant warrior pose just reminded me of some bad naughty pictures I saw of elephants on the internet. 

[Sirithiliel]

i'll probably sculpt some more fur on my Mumlak, i dont' really want a half-bald mammoth :P

[Suden]

Mumlak looks great, I hadn't even noticed the idol. I can't help but think Sir Forscale is safe though, that tusk will block the swing.

Honestly, I figured that thread would either be merged or locked. It took longer than I expected. Because, while reaper is a great company, and takes our input seriously, at the end of the day it's still a private business, and they're gonna make the desicions about their product in their own way. 

 

Would I like to see the giantess keep the caribou? Yes. It's a neat detail. Do I expect reaper to make alterations to an expensive product because of that neat detail that they may have had good reason to cut? No.

That MAY is important.

 

They MAY have had a good reason, or they MAY NOT.

 

Letting them know that there are people that are less happy about the change MIGHT be important.

 

I do not like here nearly ad much without the caribou. It made her a much more interesting figure, and would have made her a lot more fun to paint.

 

And we had already locked her in before the change was made.

 

So, I am making disgruntled noises, and I have REASON to be making disgruntled noises.

Okay. Let's talk about the elephant warrior in the room.

 

That's the thing with Bones kickstarter minis.

Even the ones you didn't think you'd want turn out to be really cool sculpts that are MUCH bigger than you thought.

 

Thats why you need to buy everything.

I've picked up every elephant type mini that Reaper has made. I'll be picking that one up as well.

Some things really jump up when they hit retail, too.  I was surprised to see the Shipwreck Revenant from Bones 3 for $25, but he is HUGE.  Mossbeard is another I expect to be a heavy hitter when he comes to retail.
