No.  Don't go back on the 5.5 PM.  I do not need more.  I do NOT need more.  Don't do it... Resist temptation. 

Oh, that reminds me... we have to pay for getting more stuff.

 

[Logs into pledge manager. Momentary hesitation. Do I really *need* more stuff? A slow cartoon villain laughter comes out of me. Clicks "PAY"]

I'm safe from 5.5. I didn't feel like it was worth the hassle of getting a 2nd email account just to order a few things I didn't originally get.

@haldir

Did you try the trick where you add +XXX to your email name?  So like [email protected]?  I found out that would work on my email account, and that was a new idea to me when I heard about it.

I didn't, but I'm not worried, about the only thing I didn't get was the villagers. I told myself when the original PM closed I was happy & I needed things for retail, thou with some of the recent releases, I'm not sure I'll even get them as I'd rather have them in singles & not box sets (see beastmen for example).

The paints are still a good deal so I jumped on a couple of those. Also some of the less expensive dragons for gifts next year.

I'm of the same mind.

5.5 isn't for me, I had gotten the models i wanted in bones 4, and bones 5. I did splurge when I accidentally misclicked the forums though, ended up on the website and saw the reapercon brush holder was in stock for EU. The ball rolled down the hill at that point, catching a few triads, some neat figures and 2 learn-to-paint kits for a friend along the way.

Friendly reminder:

 

Bones 5.5 closes on Sunday October 31st at midnight CDT.

Thank you for reminding me.

I'll gonna get the ghost ship. I was very concerned about ordering it before seeing it in customers' hands, since it's such a large piece in translucent plastic and I couldn't really imagine it not seeming blobby around the connecting points. I quite like what I've seen so far and I'll try to paint it halfway, so it looks as if some planks have rotten away/broken off, revealing the glowy bits in their place. Fingers crossed it'll work out I guess.

It was not that difficult to resist (with the Euro being weaker than usual, the VAT/Customs thingy etc.) Me backing the next big Bones Kickstarter will depend a lot on Reaper being able to clearly state in advance how continental Europe will be handled.

[WhiteWulfe]

Clearly stating which carriers will be used for which regions will be on my list as well for whether or not I back the next one.

The pledge manager is now closed. 
 

I fell victim to a ghost ship last night; the pirates robbed $155 from my wallet, and threatened to return to my home sometime next year. 

[R2ED]

Big thanks for doing another round of the PM. it helped me deal with feeling like i missed something.  Not to mention it was great to see more items once the first delivery was made.  I really, really appreciate the opportunity to spend more with this company.  Woo hoooo!

 

Now more nail biting until delivery.  January, right?

I got a 2nd Rocky. A friend is gonna get the first one when she goes in for surgery, since she loves to knit/plans to do that during recovery and he should look really cute throwing needles. Should at least keep unfriendly room mates in check.

Excluding several items I didn't go with on my initial pledge, the only extra item I selected was the finger of disapproval.

 

It just felt like one was never enough.
