It's, uh... it's pretty big.

That looks great.
I probably have to shorten that tail, to use it as CSM Dragon-flyer thing. Is that easily convertable material,
or is it more like D&D miniatures, that are pain to cut straight.

Tbh I know very little about minis (not even going to paint these :() but yeah they feel almost exactly the same as the D&D minis. Maybe a touch softer?

This might not be the thread for it but: dude, try painting them. At least some simple ones like zombies or skeletons. I don't know if you've tried mini painting at all before, but you can get surprisingly good-looking results from applying a few simple areas of color and then hitting them with a wash, if nothing else. There are plenty of people here who can help you.

Oh, yeah, that should've read "Despite my best efforts, I know very little about minis :v:" I own an embarrassing amount of D&D minis and now these (Gave away my WH40k stuff in college), but I am utterly useless at painting/sculpting/etc., I dunno what it is. Besides, I shouldn't have even spent the $100 on minis I'm never going to use, I definitely shouldn't be spending $50 on paint I'm never going to use/gently caress up :allears:

I have 16 line items and no notice of shipping yet. :(

Reaper Brian posted:

Also, orders escalate quickly from here. Before 5 lines or 6 lines took over a day. The next US book of 1500 orders starts partway through 8 items, and closes out 9 and 10, and begins 11!
Rest Of World Book currently scheduled for Thursday if nothing else goes kablooie.

Based on what's been said in the kickstarter thread, and with them taking the weekend to do the big 40+ line item orders, I'd guess yours is going to go out mid to late next week. Depending on their Canadian shipping problem, whether something similar happens with doing rest of the world on thursday/friday.

Edit: Forgot July 4th, so might slip into the week after.

What do you mean by each unit? That line by line is how my order has been recorded every time they checked it in the pledge manager or wherever.

Each individual vampire box, Kaladrax, etc. The tracker shows 154179 line items for 9626 orders. That works out to slightly greater than 16. Given we're still in single digits, I tend to think we're going to see them get into the thirties or forties by the end (on the assumption that lower numbers account for more orders than higher numbers). This also includes the assumption that most people had ten or fewer extra sets (that is, extras from the Vampire set; since once you got to a certain point, it was cheaper to just get another Vampire box and trade in Sophie).

I'm making some assumptions here, of course. We'll see as we get further along.

So after a year of waiting and then tracking my package UPS decides to say they "Delivered it to my front door" yet nothing is loving here.

Of course they probably delivered it to the wrong address. Now they tell me I have to contact Reaper to put a track on the package. Lame.

So I guess I was drunk when I ordered or something because one of these entries is in a slightly more than I thought I ordered quantity:

Fire Giant Warriors x1
Kaladrax Reborn x1
NOVA x6
vampire x1

Were the extra NOVA squads really cheap or something? I guess I have the basis for a cool new IG army!

Each NOVA squad is five guys and you could add them for $5 each. So at $1 per, that's a pretty good deal for your new imperial guard army. Note that you also get a squad with your Vampire level (assuming you went in for vampire), so that's a total of 35 NOVA dudes.

I think he means if you ordered 36 kaladraxen that'd count as 36 line items.

I've got 20 things in my order, and multiples of several, so I expect it'll be a while.

There's also a NOVA hero in the Chronoscope stretch goal, for a total of thirty-six NOVA soldiers.

I think in retrospect I wanted to use them for corporate security guards in Shadowrun or maybe Arbites in Necromunda. It was a long time ago.

They are close in scale, it really depends. GW has poo poo for scale when it comes to female models so those probably fall somewhere in the acceptable range. A lot of Reaper stuff is very thin compared to GW.

Thanks both of you, looks like it will fit. Worst case I'll have to scratch build a new scrying pool.

Definitely waiting for the bones version, balancing 3 inches of metal on top of the throne would probably be a nightmare.

I got a tracking number! I am much more excited about this than I should be.

Also it looks like a lot of the stuff I passed on didn't get much more expensive. But C'thulhu, Kaladrax, and Nethyrmaul all ballooned to a price I probably wouldn't get them at. (No real use for, but they'd be nice to have.) But I got them! Cheap!

That's what I tell myself every time the "why do I need 2 huge-rear end undead dragons for?" issue comes up. My only Reaper regret is not getting the 4th paint set (funnily enough, the undead one) because "no, I have those colors".
