    Wow, that 100 dollar set includes over 200 miniatures. You'd be set for life trying to paint all those. Tempting, but they'd just sit around if I bought them

    I have never painted before and am purchasing them. I am at $100 now (and switching out the stupid female biker for $25 worth of useful stuff).

    I believe that the count is current 211 minis for $100. (assuming they hit $2.24m)

    Check this out for a comparison to metal. They are up over $1k in value for the $100 pledge level.

    how do you switchout the female biker? I'm considering going with a vampire level contribution.


    EDIT: Just saw the FAQ video. The bones reward manager sounds neat. i might also want to switch out some other things like the choronoscope and the marine sets. Hmmm...really on the fence with this. If I got this it would totally be an impulse purchase and something I'm not sure I would even ever use.

    I'd say you can't go wrong. Even if you never use them, they would be a great set to pass down to children in the future. I'm on the fence too. I've never painted fantasy style guys.

    Edit: I noticed these won't ship until march 2013. That makes it harder to purchase.

    Only part of it. The first part ships in Semptember of this year. The rest is in early 2013.


    Vampire Level = Zombie Level + Ghast Level + Wraith Level + Mummy Level - (Zombie and Wraith Levels will ship in September 2012. The Ghast amd Mummy Levels are expected to ship in March 2013) USA and Canada Free Shipping; all other countries please add $25.00 for shipping.
    I do like the thought of being able to customize the order if I don't want certain pieces. That 7" clockwork dragon looks sweet and I rather have that then some of the other items in the bundle. I might just have that as a desk toy or something.

    So tempted...I think this would have me set for pretty much life. Ugg... chances are I will get it.

    EDIT: Just noticed that the zombie and wraith items are not much. So yeah, no minis until MArch 2013

    So went ahead with a vampire level donation. I figure if I change my mind later today I can just cancel. I really would love to get into the figures aspect so I'll see if I change my mind by later tonight.

    I'm on the fence about with the reaper minis... If they shipped some this year, I would totally jump as it would give me a great winter hobby project. Hard to have 100 dollars floating around for 6 months before I see any return on it and the return is in terms of plastic miniatures that I've never seen in person. I noticed some were metal, which are 2x harder to paint than the plastic ones.

    IIRC, the only metal ones are the biker chick variations. As for the plastic quality, I have heard great things about it. Here is a youtube search result for a review: http://youtu.be/7Tb1otMRZbk
