I do hope you will be pleased with the book Do not hesitate to drop me a PM if you have some troubles with your order

It's hard to believe that Reaper is preparing to kickoff its fifth Bones Miniatures Kickstarter today! If you've never participated in a Reaper Bones Kickstarter, I can tell you that I've participated in all four previous Bones Kickstarters and been pleased everytime. Be aware that the fulfillment time is lengthy, and they've always been a little late, but not terribly late, usually a month or two. And if you are not familiar with Bones miniatures, they are 28mm, don't require priming (I do recommend washing), and are much more difficult to destroy than metal minis. They are also much lighter than metal minis. And by the time the Kickstarter is over, all the stretch goals usually make the cost per mini less than $1.00, including some larger minis like dragons and giants!

The Bones 5 campaign is now live!

The overall campaign looks great!  Everything is fantasy so far, just like I hoped.  The entry price has jumped to $120.00 whereas all previous campaigns began at $100.00.

Sure!  The deadline is 30 days away.  You have plenty of time to decide.

You click on the link above and it takes you to the Bones 5 Kickstarter campaign.  There's a large green button that says, "Back this Project."  You click on that and pick which "wave" you want to participate in.  You want to pick a wave that represents where you live.  If you are from New Hampshire, USA, then you want to pick a "America, Europe (NOT UK)" wave.  Pick the lowest wave number available because the lowest number waves ship first.  You also have a choice to pick a $1 wave or a $120 wave for your geographical location.  The advantage of the $120 waves are that they get all the additional stretch goals, but the $1 waves do not.  Once you pick the wave, you enter your credit card and address data, and once the campaign closes, your card is charged.  Once the campaign is over, you'll have six to nine months (they'll let you know), to lock in and pay for what you want.  You can add more money to your pledge, but you can't reduce your pledge after the campaign is over.   As time goes by, Reaper will send you e-mails, at least once a month to provide updates.   Around April of 2021, you get your minis.   I'd read the FAQ section of the campaign page as it has lots of answers to the questions most people ask.  

I've participated in all four previous Bones Kickstarters this is worth backing. Bones minis are the best minis available in my opinion. Some advantages of Bones figures are; no priming necessary, they are hard to damage, of lighter weight than metal, and most important, the low cost. We're at about $1 per figure, including giants and dragons! This cost will go down as more and more figures are added to the Core Set. Most important, there are numerous Kickstarters where there is no fulfillment. They take your money and ship you nothing. This is as close to a sure thing as it gets. And, if you end up not wanting or liking your minis, you can turn around and double your money on ebay. Look at the selling price for Bones 4 Core sets on eBay right now. Some sold for over $200!  This campaign is worth it.  

Deadlord wrote in Kickstarter projects:So they have 1.5 MILLION that people are already going to pay? I'm in the wrong business.
Thanks, Ben, I may just do it!

Glad to help.  And, for what it's worth, these Bones minis are supposed to be better than previous sets because they are mostly done in a different formula of plastic which supposedly holds detail better than ever.  They were done in a white plastic and now all the smaller minis will be done in black/dark plastic, called "Bones Black." There is speculation that this change is the primary reason this campaign has taken off stronger than most previous campaigns.  Maybe, maybe not.

To each their own, I’ve decided rule sets and toolkits are officially out of scope for me

I’ve pretty much laid off settings too.

Minis and adventures, that’s my thing these days

Howdy all, did you k ow that Board Ent is still alive and they are on KS?

...i am tempted but i am almost sure to have issues with that "for US only"...

Not for me, moral puzzles are pointless as I have none. However, Aia, if you want to get one you can have it shipped to me and I'd be happy to send it to you. I'm not sure what overseas postage costs now, though........
