Yay! Power ups! Thank you Reaper! 

And apparently the one with the pigfolk might be soon on its way as well! ❤️ That has definitely piqued my interest!

I'll probably get that power up for the dwarves. I wonder if the pelt on the stretcher thing looks like a dwarf on the other side... 

 

It would remind me of the old Warhammer Zombie musician.

 

I was excited about the Hogmen but the terrain bits seal the deal.

It certainly looks dwarf-shaped and dwarf-sized.  Not exactly a terrain piece one will find all that many uses for, but should be quite effective the first time it shows up.

I finally went and added the anniversary dragon & storm giant queen. Hoping the queen will be cast in one of the newer bones materials.

Don't get your hopes up too much.  They have said repeatedly that large minis will likely be in Bones Classic.  It seems unlikely she gets to be an exception.

It’s probably out there somewhere but I’m a bit too lazy to look but. It too lazy to ask. Are there groups that after the Kickstarter is received where you can trade minis? I’m at that moment where I like a few of the tavern set miniatures but really don’t need the furniture which is the brand majority of the set. So, trying to figure out a way to snag the dwarf waitress and the bard for example.

@72moonglum there are several on Facebook, at least one dedicated to Reaper.  A simple search on buy/trade/sell and brand name there should bring it up. 

 

Thanks Inarah, I’ll hunt them down after Bones 6 is sent out.  I can’t justify right now the whole package if I really only want 2 or 3 miniatures out of the set, but I’m going to get the Egyptian set for example and would happily trade away the terrain and scenery from that set for a few desired minis!

Last night Scarab Folk update. Love those, not enough to pick entire Lost Tombs of Hakir expansion. Egyptian theme is a bit too specific for me.

Although on second thoughts, their value alone in retail might be close to $30-40 (if not more), so I am a bit torn  😕

And some not-final renders of sculpts by Jason Wiebe: 
(apparently guy in the yellow squiggle is not part of the expansion and might be released at some point later)
(also the sand peddler mini has been refferred to as "roach-coach" by the sculptor, which seemed worth mentioning)

Coming from Jason, yah I can see that. :lol:

 

I agree about the they look great but not enough to get the entire expansion & you are most likely right about the price for just them as Reaper has a tendency to group similar items together (Brinewind sets, elemental scions, etc etc), so who knows. I think I'm pretty much 1 (maaaaybe) 2 expansions away from completing my B6 order. I'm up in the air between Shadows & Denizen. Great stuff, but stuff I can easily replicate in the printer.

These miniatures are 28mm Heroic Scale and injected in our Bones, Bones Black, or Bones USA plastics!

New! In addition to injecting in Bones Black and Bones Classic, and our Bones USA Siocast process, many of the prints for Bones 6 will be 3-D printed miniatures.

Umm...yeah...what you said ksbsnowowl.  Pretty sure I don't love that.

Bones 6 promises to offer you more variety and more amazing new miniatures! These miniatures are 28mm Heroic Scale and injected in our Bones, Bones Black, or Bones USA plastics!

I'm sure that they're print jobs of very high quality but it's definitively not the product I was expecting.  Really would like to know why this change was made, for what models, and if this is the direction Reaper plans to take the business.

I love the hogmen, that’s a winner.

 

3D printing? What’s the material and method? Definitely a surprise, and not what I pledged for. Reaper hasn’t ever done me wrong before, so I guess we’ll wait and see how this cookie crumbles.
