completed Reaper Bones 4: Enthusiasm and Commentary Thread

[Nunae]

Brexit will be in 13 days, so it's getting tight, even with them starting now. 

It's also very possible that the points of entry and exit in the UK are pretty overworked right now, with lots of people trying to get their stuff through before Brexit hits.

 

Also: it's saturday and the ticker is ticking up at full speed. I don't remember how they did that the last time around, but I kinda thought they had the weekends off.

The Brexit will be postponed, nobody knows by how much (weeks or months), but it will not happen at the end of March as far as I know. As Reaper are shipping to the UK Hub right now, everything might well be delivered by the time the Brexit actually happens.

 

And ... wow ... they 're shipping. I thought they were waiting for a container ... so shipping now comes as a total surprise. I had accepted the idea of having to wait until June ... but this looks good now.

Indeed, it seems the new deadline is end of May for the Brexit. ( if this will also be the end of May herself remains to be seen)

So maybe Reaper will be able to get it in time.

I hope so, not just for us but also for Reaper, they might have to jump through hoops to keep it all reasonable.

I'm happy with the actions taken so far.

oThe ticker is moving!

Seems like they're going through the EU orders right now, not the AU ones. And it's going up pretty quickly.

 

Interested to note that the total number of planned shipments is 22366. As the original number of backers was 16,000 that means an extra 6 thousand late pledges since the close of the kickstarter. Pretty good going.

[ttuckerman]

In Reaper Live they stated that the new number was 18,000 something, a new record.

[Kro]

The 22000 number may be referencing multiple orders people placed while the pledge manager was open. I know I placed 3 myself. I'm a little surprised it's not higher if that is the case.

[MiniDungeonMaster]

Interesting, this is my first reaper KS so it’s totally new to me this shipping page, I see Bristol is the most recent shipping destination is there a way to see other shipping destinations that have already been listed?

I also got multiple orders, I believe 4 or 5.

Agree, the vast majority of people would have ordered just once, if there are 18.000 people (as said in Reaper live).

[Ratmaster2000]

Just looked at my pledge manager, I have 11 orders, and they are counting orders, so I would say that's why the count is off. Either way, they are moving at a great clip, cannot wait!

[Nunae]

Do we know when they started with fulfillment? Wasn't Ed away at a convention at the end of this week and they prerecorded Reaper live for that reason?

I thought my 10 orders was a lot.

 

That being said, we should all remember that people that post on the forums are likely much more of an outlier than the typical backer. Most people placing one order would not surprise me.

I only did 3 orders. The initial pledge, then several months later I got an argent, and a week after that I placed my last order which was my largest order.

 

I may have done one more just for bases had the PM stayed open longer, but had already spent way too much. This was my largest kickstarter. I think I doubled my Bones 3 total.

 

I could have used the portal last night.

[Sirithiliel]

I did 2, my main one and then Rulers of Hell and Hill Giants in a 2nd order

[haldir]

I did 2 orders. The initial pledge & then a final order right before ReaperCon last year. It would have spaced it out more but I procrastinated on my ordering. I did intend to place a order during RCon as I got to see the figures in person but nothing confirmed what I was debating on getting in said #3 order.
