We need more Roderics and Glitters in the Pledge Manager!    😎

[kristof65]

Have there been any previews yet of the Blacktallow Lighthouse sculpt beyond the concept art? 

[Ziggy]

Shot Jon a message on Discord. You think they'd put it on their calendars.

Doubly so since it's a schedule they themselves set 😛

Who has good photos of the Accidental Angel? I hope she gets added to the pledge manager, hopefully as an add-on. 

[Blip]

Whoopsiel the Accidental Angel has a nice ring to it.

So, this is from ReaperCon - I posted it in the Discord, but this was up on screen at Jason Weibe's table. I didn't go by when he was at his table, but looks like he was working on it during the con.

 

Started with the important part - the walrus

[Minsky07]

Some screenshots from last night Reaper Live
As far as I can tell those are sculpts for items shown on the KS as concept art only

Alicorn from Briarwood Vale expansion (sculpt by Julie Guthrie?) either whole piece or wings might be translucent plastic (TBD)


Demilich from Denizens of the Dungeon expansion (sculpt by Julie Guthrie?) 


Desert Barbarian from Lost Tombs of Hakir expansion (sculpt by Bobby Jackson)

It's a shame the various adventurer minis are all locked into bigger sets, I want most of them but it'll probably be years before they get a retail release (If they get one at all).

[Sirithiliel]

it's a shame how many things from past kickstarters haven't hit retail

 

i wanted, for example, the eastern asian dragon but not the whole set. don't think i'm going to ever see that one released

 

I wanted another blacktooth terror, but again don't think that'll ever be back

 

i wanted another pack of the little raptor pack, but they've been out of stock for 3 years. A nice forumite sent me some so that's a bit less of a want, but 3 years? really? /sigh

That’s why it’s always better to get what you want in the KS, and sell the parts you don’t want.

There's a few of us waiting for more raptors.  At least those were released to retail.  The Bones 5.5 shipment was supposed to include many of the items that have been out of stock for the past year.

KS is always a gamble, but it's annoying when they won't let you buy the single item you want, and then don't release it to retail.  And on top of that, they don't seem interested in using KS to produce items for which there is limited demand (cough, Chronoscope), items which could essentially be pre-orders aimed at a targeted audience willing to put money down in advance.  

 

[Sirithiliel]

i was very selective this time around, and probably still got some things i shouldn't have

 

i honestly haven't been painting much anymore. My minis sit unpainted, my finished ones sit unused. We haven't had in-person game or reason to use miniatures in over a year, so my painting desire has also dwindled to pretty much nothing

 

this may be my last kickstarter for Reaper, honestly. Or at least, the last one where i get anything but one or two dragons
