It would be nice to have some sense of scale on that set. Just how big is the splashy water guy gonna be?

The crystals are totally throw-away, you can carve crystals out of foam or balsa in like two minutes, but I kinda dig the watery thing coming out of a bucket.

I got two cases last time and really regret not having spent that money on add-on minis instead. They really are not great. I am not even sure why you need foam to protect plastic minis, and they have so many dudes with staves and swords upraised that you'd have to do a lot of work to get Bones to fit.

I assume they'll be translucent like their ghosts and fire elementals and goopcube. The picture there is undoubtedly of the metal version of that mini.

Oh god drat it.

I should stop paying attention to this, it would be less annoying to bump up my pledge by large amounts a few times rather than $10 every time something I can't pass up shows up.

Interesting that they're estimating delivery for September next year at the earliest. It seems that're learned their lessons about how long fulfilment is likely to take... And I find it very weird that some people have pledged wave 3 when wave 2s are still available o_O

Yeah I suspect some people are just clicking the first $100 tier they see without reading it.

The guy on the top right looks a lot like Mr. Hyde from that terrible League of Extraordinary Gentlemen movie.

THE RESERVED LIST! THE RESERVED LIST! I CANNOT SHUT UP ABOUT THE RESERVED LIST!
I'm considering getting the heroes and villains thing and clipping the bases off the bottom of the figures to use as basing fodder for special characters. Then you've still got the figures that you can put on normal bases. It seems like it might be a pretty competitive deal for $10 given that some places you'd pay that much straight up for 5-6 equivalent resin bases.

Those are removable bases. It says so in the update for it. They have their normal sized bases which 'click' into the huge ridiculous base. It's even easier than what you're saying.

You can see the lines easily on the lower right, and upper left ones.

Welp I didn't see that part of the update, just the graphic. Silly me.

Ironically the castle is probably the one base I couldn't use (or would have to modify) because the tiny door would just be goofy.

Ehh, it's not like there's a big (projected) gap between individual waves. Heck, two of them are listed for the same month. So you're looking at, say, two weeks per wave. Missing out on one and going to the next one out shouldn't be too big a deal, since it's a year out anyhow.

E: Can I just pledge $1,000,000 to see the stretch goals then back out? (I am kidding but I'd love to do it.)

I suspect they'll post instructions on that once things start to die down a little, along with how to get things from the core set as add ons. People can make multiple accounts to grab multiple sets, might as well make it so they can add it on one account.

So I pledged 1 dollar, just in case (and because $100 is way beyond my kickstarter budget). Now, does that mean I can pledge whatever amount is needed for the additional things that are being revealed? As in, I can pledge $10 for the Water Elemental, and $10 for the Heroes and Villains, for a total of $21, right?

I like how the demon on the right's wings are cutout pieces of paper, unless I'm seeing things.
