Hey thread, I have a Wave 1 Shipping pledge I'ma back out of. I can't justify spending $100 on more unpainted minis when I still have most of Bones I and II unpainted, and while some of Bones III are cool and the paints are a good deal, I can also just buy stuff later. So, hey, shortly after this gets posted, I'm canceling. Maybe one of you can grab it?

Oh, that is a sweet looking cannon. Not terribly excited by the second part of the expansion, but it was already fifty bucks worth of minis to me, so I'll just call 'em extra. I'd like to see more angles of the kaiju titan thing. That looks like it might be kind of cool.

Let's be honest, I don't think that people have a plan for 95% of their Bones haul. It's just marginally easier to convince yourself you'll find uses for $30 worth of completely random stuff compared to a single enormous cannon. Also, you can obviously use that cannon as the centerpiece of the RPG villains master plan to shoot the moon out of the sky.

I guess I'm in the minority but I'm completely unexcited about the artillery piece. I bet I can walk into pretty much any hobby shop that sells plastic model kits and there will be at least a couple scale models of artillery pieces to choose from, probably for like $25-$30 bucks or so, and probably at various different scales. A 1/35 scale model might look outsized, or maybe just look extra big and impressive for 28mm minis; at the other end, 1/72 probably looks dinky. But anything in between should work. I suppose it's cool that Reaper is dipping into modern-era historicals like this, but it seems out of place compared to the fantasy/sci-fi focus of everything else in Bones. Maybe it makes sense that it's actually a Victoria Miniatures thing.

My Orcs could loot the hell outta that thing, but I'm not likely to ever play 40k again so I think I'll pass.

If I suddenly found myself with an excess of cash I'd probably get one of them, but as it stands with the groups I currently game with I'm much more likely to find a use for Dragon #284 than Artillery Piece #1.

Even more than the cannon itself, I'm pretty psyched by the military ladies on it. They're pretty rad looking.

I'm actually more interested now that I see it from more angles. I'm a huge sucker for weird monsters, though. I love the feathers. Definitely going with some nice rainbow feathers on his head.

As others have said, you do also get a neat crew with this, but really for me the tiebreaker is that Victoria is awesome so even if the GW product had parity with hers in every other way, she'd still have the advantage.

Ok the pledge manager is a little uninformative. Right now I have my pledge at $1 if I want to get, lets say, invisable heroes, do i uncheck the $1 and just check the $7?
