Wave 5 for me.

 

I had Shav, rune wights, and dragonfolk.

 

United States, no word yet.

For my miniatures, I use six Akro-Mils storage drawer bins. They're excellent, and there are a variety of different styles/sizes so that you can somewhat customize your storage space. Here's one of my favorites:

I use the same! Thought its a no brainer myself.

Same, but Wave 3.  I fully expect to not get a shipping notification the first day of post-container fulfillment.

Wave 2 with Shav and the busts.  Wasn't sure about the dragonfolk so I just went and looked and I had NOT ordered them,  I'm sure my boxes (I got the regular ship) will show up next week while I'm out of town, and I will have to explain to the wife (who will be home)  that it's stuff I ordered a couple of years back...

Update we just received is that they are now expecting the last US container to arrive at the factory tomorrow.

Thats weird...Im wave 6 and got my shipping notice.  While my order is pretty small, I did have dragonfolk...

They started using the retail allotment to fill KS orders that are only missing Dragonfolk and/or Rune Wights. 

[Marvin]

They were sending out some number of orders with dragonfolk (and something else?) with merch that had been packaged for retail or some such, add I understood it.

 

 

Wave 1, dragonfolk and what's her face dragon, and ship depending how that's working out, still no shipping notice here.

[lexomatic]

Got my delivery but no Fan Favourites box. So now to check if anything  else is missing  before emailing.

 

To my horror I discovered I must have taken it out of my cart at some point because it's not in any of my orders. Not prepared to wait  Or deal with pledge manager again. Especially seeing how many tiny bits need gluing. I cannot get enough sustained time or space to assemble stuff.  This seems way worse than Bones 4 to me, which I havent gotten to because of assembly issues. pretty disappointed  really. Hope i get over that soon

Man, I gotta say, these past few weeks have not been good for someone with my anxiety.

 

Not to get too personal, but we put in an offer on a house in April and are still waiting.  Our original closing date was in June, but things happened and it was moved back to a week ago.  That obviously was delayed too, and now it's tomorrow- but it looks like it'll get delayed again (and to top it all off, the bank's communication on these delays has been absolutely abysmal, it's like I'm dealing with three toddlers in a trenchcoat).

 

Between that and this Bones V massive delay... man, I just really could use a win soon.  Every day feels like a hidden camera show, where someone will walk out and explain that this has all just been a joke.

 

I get that everyone is doing the best they can in a pretty unprecedented climate, but I really hope good things start happening soon.

I totally empathize with your anxiety issues.  I know the feeling of needing a win right now.

Seeing a toddler get excited over Arakoth and the Dwarf crypt was good.Glad my terrainy expansion sets are not too huge  Dwarf set is nice. Arakoth is going to be a pain to figure out the legs. I haven't looked at anything else yet.

Wave 5 with the same two missing items. I thought townsfolk were not that popular, guess I was wrong. And apparently busts are NOT popular:( Ah well, plenty of patreons that offer them, so there is that.

Wow, since April, I am sorry to hear that. I know what a pain it was for my mother when she was simultaneously selling her house WHILE buying a house closer to me and my sister. Not sure when (or if) I will ever be at the point of buying, but from what I have seen, not looking forward to the experience.

My giant box of shame hasn’t arrived yet, but someone in the KS comments pointed out that Arakoth’s legs are labeled in some way, on the sprue each leg is attached to, much like a sprue kit would be.
