funded Reaper Bones 5: Enthusiasm and Commentary thread

[Adrift]

Broke away at clinical with my nursing students to pick up a wave 5 which is what I average; dropped in a $600 pledge bc I am honest with myself.

I didnt know him.  But I heard good things...

Dibs on his mini hoard!

 

Admit it, we all have one. We're like dragons, it's never big enough.

Up to 110 minis in the Core Set.  Will soon be at the $1 a mini for your $120 buy-in.  :)

Aaaand... we have the third and final wave of dungeon dwellers with some more old friends. A big disappointment of an expansion, let's see what follows. Dreadmere expansion II?

I don't understand that Dungeon Dwellers expansion ... it seem there are a number of minis in there that are already available (even in Bones material?), I believe even I have a couple of them.

Maybe that expansion is meant for the "beginner" because it looks like a good entry level for table top RPG minis.

I've got about a third of the minis from the Dungeon Dweller expansion, but I'll probably end up picking up the set anyway. That little dragon is adorable

I'm trying to understand the Mouseling pricing.  $10 for five small miniatures, versus $10 for six human-sized dragonborn miniatures...can anyone explain why it works that way?

Me: <post link to kickstarter on facebook>
Wife (sees post): "Wait...what you dont need any more minis. YOU got 50+ lbs of minis last time"

Me: "Ooops, too late already pledged, can't take it back now"

Wife: "How much?"

Me: "Not that much.... $750"

:D

 

Rookie mistake - don't post on FB!  Only here where the muggle spouses don't see.

I wonder if they won't have an encounter for the DD expansion.  But yes it is great, for someone who hasn't been collecting for years.

Yes, I agree; I think it is totally intended for new folks.  I think they have correctly assumed that there will be a lot of new people in this Kickstarter.  (Their Facebook page, for one, is bringing in a lot of new blood.)

To be honest it feels like a rapid way to include a full expansion which has almost all its models already sculpted and aviable, so I guess it will be easier to produce. It does look like a starter pack, since it doesn't have a lot of thematic cohesion, but a bit of everything. And the models... except Owl Bear and the plague doctors, the rest feels pretty basic to me.

Apparently the Mouslings have grown to be the size of the Chibi minis
