Reaper Miniatures Bones 3: The Search for Mr. Bones! by Reaper Miniatures — Kickstarter

By the way, I participated in the first two Bones Kickstarters, primarily just getting the core sets each time at $100.00.  And each time I sold that core set for $150.00 the day after I received it.  Some individuals sold the first core set for over $200.00.  I should also add that both of these Kickstarters were late, about four or five months each time.  I know most people here are not into minis, but their combination of light-weight, indestructibility, price, and quality make them the best minis out there in my opinion, and I own a huge set of 25mm metal minis.   8)


This project is off to a good start, already approaching $1,000,000.00.  Here's the direct link:

Reaper Miniatures Bones 3: The Search for Mr. Bones! by Reaper Miniatures — Kickstarter

:)


This project is now in its last two days ending this Saturday at 6:00 PM EST, I believe.  The bottom line is that this is a good way to get a variety of about 135 miniatures for $100 meaning they'll be about 75 cents each.  While I personally have an old-school metal mini collection, if I was doing it all over again, I go with these minis.  They are lighter, less expensive, and are difficult to damage.  And while most plastic minis don't show good detail, these do, and you don't even have to prime them.  If you have ever considered making the leap to minis, this is the way to go.   8)


Truth is worth finding and life is too short to work for money.

Any updates to the Ken Whitman / d20 fiasco from first hand attendees at GenCon?  Did he pull through or did things flop as expected?

Just curious, following the thread of unbelievable nonsense.

From what I read following on Facebook and Google+, it was sheer lunacy.  Both Ken and Jolly had after parties since Ken had cancelled his but then re-instated it when Jolly announced his (with help from ZOE).  However, Ken cancelled everything past the first showing by saying he had "death threats" and Gencon told him to stay in his room to be safe and thus cancelled everything, but no proof of course.  His rep has to be toilet water at this point, but amazingly he still has defenders.

Seany,

I agree this one looks good.  I'm just beginning to get irritated by the massive spamming being done.  I'm getting too many messages or posts about it everywhere I turn.

I don't think it is correct to call it spamming. I find I am not interested in most of the updates but I think Benoist and Ernie Gygax are enthusiastic about their project and have been told that they should communicate as much as possible.

Just an update on this project. It is currently 92% funded with 26 days to go.
A backer level (Aruba) has been added which gives Print On Demand options to backers in the UK, Europe, and Australia. This should save them money on shipping costs.
This also means that for collectors there will be variant editions out there.
