Those Lizardkin are awesome made me pledge, the hulk is pretty cool too.

Thanks Timmy... We are so close to unlocking the Minotaur... Just a few more pledges needed!!

They look great! Does anyone from the first kickstarter have pictures of what you received? I'd love to see more photos, especially to compare to other minis.

I posted my Trollkin Kithkar with a Bugbear a while back.

Sucker went together great. Almost no need for glue. There was an issue (that was pointed out ahead of time) that on the arms they needed a little clipping on the joints to have them fit snuggly, but that wasn't a big deal.

I'll try and get a shot of the deathscale I've just put together up later,

but all the stuff was great (and well cast)

Fantastic news from the KS comments - they're going to switch up the stretch goal order and unlock more minis sooner!

So, we should see the Hook Beast just after the Minotaur and he's going to reveal the actual order tomorrow. This news got another beast pledge from me in for hopefully a Minotaur and Hook Beast now!

Edit - And official update is up:

Update #6
Apr 15 2016

Stretch Goal Three Amended - Minotaur and the Awesome Gladiator Helm will be available at £10K!!!

I have restructured the stretch goals and I have now made the new Brutes more accessible. The Hook Beast, Minotaur and Bugbear Brute will be the next miniatures unlocked!


Help to unlock this mighty beast!!

Here is the amended graphic for the next stretch goal, now less than £900 away. You will unlock, not only the Minotaur Guardian but Gladiatorial Helm as well!!!

This is awesome

Also, from the comments!

Creator Richard O'Connor wrote:Hook Beast and Brute will be next with further stretch goals focusing on additional bits for the Hulk and Minotaur primarily.

Hook Beast at £12500 and BB Brute at £15000

Super stoked about this, should make the campaign interesting for a wider range of backers and hopefully get more unlocked for everyone

I am going to package some of the parts together for each stretchgoal.

The Bugbear Brute will come with a head variant when it funds.

I wasn't originally planning on getting one of the minotaurs, but that gladiator helm has changed my mind.

I'll snap some pics of mine with some other minis tonight although unfortunately I don't know if I still have my "scale marine" for an easy reference...

Duskland - I know, right!? I wasn't planning to get it either, but will definitely be going for one now with the Gladiator helm

Just over £500 to fund the Minotaur and the Gladiator helm.

Wow, I knew they were big but the comparison chart in the kickstarter doesn't do it justice! Thanks for posting the picture. I hope some of the other miniatures are unlocked!

Yeah.. I am finding it difficult to get across just how large these guys are. I think I need some more scaling images done/ I'll see what I can come up with.

More pictures of actual models, preferably around lots of other models! I went through the gallery on your facebook page and there were some nice ones there. The artwork and renders look great but it's always difficult to trust how much that will carry over to the actual models received. Additionally, the painted products look really nice but if there's no reference in the picture you're guessing how big it actually is. Same thing with the "How big are they?" picture near the top -- I like the idea, but it's renders, pictures, artwork and outlines all together.

I upped my pledge amount from the 2 brutes (+ extra for a troll) to the 6 brutes (+ a troll). Really hoping to unlock that second bugbear. It's so close to the minotaur that I'd like to upgrade to the top pledge, but I don't have enough space for 12 guys (not that I really have space for 6 ...). Keep up the hard work, I've enjoyed watching how you're running this!

Just £43 to go till the Minotaur is unlocked! So close I can taste it...

And that's awesome, blckorder

Just one more pledge!!! I can feel the Minotaur will be unlocked tonight!!!

Soon Hooky, soon you will be mine

I hope so!!!

The Minotaur and the Gladiator Helm are now unlocked!!!!

Excellent!

I think the stretch goal map on the main page needs updating, with the Hook Beast at 12.5K, right? Will there be an in between goal for something small (just curious)?

Looking forward to it

So...what exactly does Minotaur taste like?

Chicken?

I would imagine a Minotaur to taste like some serious grade A beef.

Of course considering how big and bulky they are, the meat itself might be a little tough to chew. Finding lean meat on a Minotaur is a tough task for even the most serious of butchers.

Hook Beast hype! Unlocks at $12.5k!

Really looking forward to that one, as well as some more parts for the Hulk.

Ah yes, can't wait for the Hook Beast . Plenty of time to get there, although the early birds are over half gone now!

Not really early birds anymore... But the Hook Beast is not very far away!!

I don't know how big the Hook Beast is, but it'd make a fantastic Tzeentch chaos spawn

Its about ........ This big!!

... Its roughly 55mm to eye level but as you can see the head is stooped. It will be a big creature and might be difficult to fit on a 60mm base like the others. It might come on a 80mm base...we will see once it is printed!!
