A girl in my dnd group got hers delivered on 12/30 so it seems like it’s really beginning to head toward conclusion. 


Mine is out for delivery today. Was supposed to be yesterday, but FedEx just decided not to. (I do realize the holiday probably played a factor.)

It showed up a day late, likely due to the holiday, as I expected.

I had also ordered a door pack, hoping they would be a good open version ‘companion’ to the Animated Door mini’s I had rebased and turned into actual doors for my tabletop. I’d say they’re a pretty darn good match.

I definitely need to do a more thorough inspection, yet, but on a quick pass I found one orc mini that didn’t fill the mould. I guess I’ll get to test that QML “see something wrong…?” customer service card they threw in with the shipment.

I wouldn't even do a weapon swap. Enough of the weapon is still there that I'd just do a quick blade resculpt in greenstuff. Or lob off the remainder of the blade and just glue a craft bead or something on the end for a heavy mace or maul.

I've gone through both the Core Set box and the Stretch Goals box, and I'm pretty darn pleased with the minis!

Despite the well-deserved controversy that surrounded this project, the actual minis are extremely well done!

 

The only bummer (although I knew this when I pledged, so this is not an actual complaint) is that a number of the minis come in multiple sets (5 skeletons, 5 mummies, etc.). That would be awesome if they were 5 different sculps or poses, but these are all 5 identical minis.

 

I decided to keep a few of each of these (I'll probably throw a couple in the next Box of Good Will round) and offer the remaining dupes on the Electronic Bay (as Ron Swanson said). I won't break forum rules by posting a link here obviously 🙂

Hello!

 

I'd forgotten that this was a place to post about it, but I got my minis as well yesterday.  I had a bit of an eye problem, so I didn't look at them in too much detail, but mine all look pretty good.  Even with having to eventually pay $115 for the lot (I just went for the base set and the stretch goals), I think it was a good deal for the money.  Now, to cross my fingers and hope that the Series 2 comes in.  (Doesn't cost me anything to hope!)  Given that I got the Altar Quest last year, that more or less comes out as one kickstarter delivered on time, one late with extra costs, and one to be determined... (musical sting goes here.)

 

I'm going to take them in to my next D&D game and show them off.

They come in sets of five to match the enemy counts in Lasting Tales, received as an apology PDF months ago. LT is a good miniature skirmish game (although I think you only need one that you're happy enough with), and I recommend playing the campaign before selling off the mini's. China shipping costs have gone down, but with China's CoVid relaxation, who knows what's going to happen. I pledged for both the Horror and FS2 campaigns, which are using SurePost (?) instead of QML, so who knows what will happen.

 

I picked up two sets. I've only opened up the base copy. and one of the spider bases is missing, and various spears are bent. Haven't tried the hot water method yet. Too many other things going on right now!

Hey, finally got mine!  I'm a little annoyed with how good it looks, will try to paint some up this month.  Fingers crossed that Lasting Tales and then I can be done with Blacklist for good.
