The shipping confirmation email (where to?)? Good for you, I hope I got mine soon. But I'm very wary of ordering ANYTHING big from them now (unless I know I can get the transfer reversed the moment they gently caress something up). That RMS paint mega set I wanted? Looking less and less likely now.

So, my FLGS had a bunch of the kickstarter bones for sale, and I grabbed a ton. But I made the mistake of priming a pack of kobolds I got. Am I hosed here or can I undo it without ruining the models?
IIRC, they dry out OK, it just takes a lot longer (like a week or two). Just don't let them get dusty in the meantime :v:

Gotta wonder how they're going to run against Kickstarter's new stretch goal advisories.
What's changed?

ed: And speaking of my package, Reaper says the shipping should be done by the end of this week, or, in human terms, "it should be shipped before the end of September, really".

What you need is a kanban. And a kanban to organize all the kanbans :v:

Yes, they are amazing, but from a miniature game standpoint. For a boardgame they're terrible, way overdetailed and they don't fit on the spaces as well as previous ones did. Most people probably gutted the boxes for 40K anyway.

Hey, I didn't shift. Yes I feel better now that I roughly know when I'll get my minis, but the ROW issue was still shittily done :colbert:

And if I do back Bones 2, I'll be doing it through someone in the US. Not worth the hassle otherwise.

So, that's shifting the hassle of fixing the error to me, but the $7 is enough to cover the cost of the figure ($2.79) plus shipping ($2.58) plus handling ($1), with sixty three cents left over, so I guess that works.
I hope they don't do the same for ROW, the shipping's gonna kill it.

(or that if they do, I'm missing the middle part of Kaladrax' tail :v:)

I just got my KS package. Huh, everything looks smaller than I thought. And I totally forgot that paint sets are 12 bottles each and not six and had a bit of a :haw: when I opened the package.

Is that what they did? Because I got a notice that they're sending my the missing parts from my two giants.
Where are you? Because gently caress them if they make me pay $15 for shipping a single missing mini.

Anyone else encountered miscast faces? Like sunken eyes, sculpt too flat where material should be in the original, that sort of thing? Did you report it to Reaper?

ed: Reaper just told me to list them too, except these minis where the whole run was ruined:

80003 Ellen Stone
80006 Dita, Steampunk Witch
77057 Juliette, Female Sorceress
77087 Townfolk: Mom & Kids
77093 Drago Voss, Male Assassin (if you can't find this one on the breakdown it's one of the drawings)

Looking kinda meh at the moment. Buy in now before it's gone!, no shipping costs for ROW specified, plus the shipping hassle last time, plus the core set isn't as bloated with stretch rewards as last time... Wake me up once they hit $1M or so.

poo poo, it does look nice now and my miniature budget's exhausted... so is the reserve budget... And I'll be damned if I'm gonna borrow money for mandollies. If they are making it limited only, that's it, otherwise I'll get in wave #935 or something and get my minis right when I paint the first :v:

There's always retail. Based on bones 1, they should be on stores before christmas 2014.
Either way I'm hosed on the shipping from the US, and there's like 1 store selling Reaper in Poland. I'll keep an eye out, but I don't have high hopes.

Sorry, the gas spore was the best. Looks like a beholder, but when you jump it, it loving explodes. It's the ultimate in "So you thought you had the upper hand!" bullshit.
Not to mention all the colored oozes and jellies that hosed you over by imitating other species with glaring weaknesses they were actually strongly resistant to.

Shelf of shame = unpainted miniatures that need *something* to get done. It could be motivation, it could be inspiration of a color scheme that doesn't make the space marine look like a mariachi, you name it; it's not done and it's way past time for it to be painted.
I'm not opening that because my Bones will fall out and damage the unfinished (for months) werecats. And if I move them I'll have to move my partially assembled Saga Vikings and then I'll never find all the parts. I think there's also some material for a never-written paper underneath.

No, that's not my shelf of shame. That's only what I need to do to reach the actual shelf.

I just ordered the bones version, I'd be pretty wary about attaching a metal part to that soft resin.
Bonesium isn't that bad, it's more of a question of the metal arm being much heavier and the model falling over every time you look at it wrong.
