So, Reaper has released a retro-style iOS game. I cannot comment on its quality as I do not have an iOS device.

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?

Correct. Keep in mind that the pledge calculator doesn't actually change your pledge on Kickstarter. This isn't a huge problem (you'll just end up paying the extra later on when it changes to the pledge manager proper), but any extra over $1 won't count towards achieving pledge goals.

I'm also really impressed that the first expansion has thus far managed not to have anything in it that I don't want. I may well wind up getting it.

Oh, goddammit. New add-on includes a dwarf with hand puppets. Hand puppets, people. How am I supposed to say no to that?

Also, here's a list of ReaperCon Preview minis that haven't appeared yet, via Dai-Mongar on the Reaper boards:

Huge purple worm
IMEF Bulldog armour
Female frost giant
Large grub
Horned turtle
Another bear
All Bonesylvanians
Gothic archway
Cemetery golem
Coral golem
Farmers with cart
Orba Sinhan
Iron cobra
Dragonette
Chaos warrior
Tianot

However, not all of these will make it to bones. At least the dragonette was confirmed as impractical in Bones due to how thin the tail is (this was the old dragonette figure).

Yeah, I can see how the Dragonette couldn't be made out of standard bones.

Those of you who wanted lizardfolk can now order the two new ones. Five bucks gets you two each for a total of four.

4 creepy crawlies for $3 too. I need some centipedes, those things are fun in 2e.

Also, check the 28th update for conspiracy nuts. Shub-Niggurath was incorrectly marked as $10 and has been bumped up to $15. WHY IS REAPER CONSPIRING AGAINST US?

Wait... That was update #28... #29 was the one that allowed the bonus minis to be purchased. Eldritch monsters... and lizard people! It all makes sense! 28 is 7X4. 7+4=11. There are eleven letters in ReaperBryan. ReaperBryan's grandfather killed Alfalfa of the Little Rascals. Alfalfa is used to feed livestock, like mules! There's a mule in the first thirty miniatures! Look at the strings I have placed by pictures and newspaper clippings on a corkboard, clearly showing that ReaperBryan is working for the Lizard People to procure livestock to feed to the Great Old Ones!

Yep, that's the lion. Here's the pewter version. I would've liked to see more leonine features myself, but outside the context of Wizard of Oz, it's still a cool looking mini.

Well, Bones 2 funded October 2013, and then fulfilled February 2015. About a month after that, they started releasing waves of miniatures into retail. They've got between a third and half of them out now.

I would expect it to go the same way for this one. The length of fulfillment will be determined by a number of factors, many of which are outside of Reaper's control (did the molds produce good miniatures? did the ship get on the water in time? did the Chinese factory understand their request properly?) Once they have the miniatures shipped, expect a month and then they'll be released to retail for individual sale.

Also there was a dock workers strike at the time here in America that delayed things further.

Hoping the third expansion won't be scifi, but it probably will be. They have a 4th one planned in case things explode, and Reaper Bryan said they have goals out to $5.16mil planned, though they have no real hope of getting that far.

Best to be prepared though.

That 3rd bit of the expansion looks amazing.

It's funny, because in the comments section earlier today I said that we really need a mountain man that has too poor a grasp of English to properly convey the sight of a UFO, which slowly drives him mad.

And lookee there. A mountain man.

The bones Learn to Paint kit is pretty good. I want to say it runs thirty-five bucks and comes with 11 paints, three bones minis (an orc, a skeleton and a guy in armor) and two brushes.

They're not on the exhibitor hall map, but they are running a number of painting events so that's weird. Maybe they'll have a booth outside the exhibit hall.

I don't think Reaper is going, but sometimes they'll let other people run paint-and-takes at cons, supplying them with minis.
