No money for kickstarters now, will they go retail?

Probably in due course, but if that happens, it will be late 2015 or 2016 I would guess.

Just over one week left to go!

With over £4k pledged to date, this means we can start planning a second wave of figures. Happily Will Beck is already scribbling furiously on some more concepts, while Michael Anderson has booked us a slot in his sculpting diary for October. In the meantime, feel free to head over to the Kickstarter and make suggestions on figures you think we should include in Wave 2.

This is a cool project so kudos, special interest award goes to mr croak and the Heir to the estate AKA the ugly baby for uniqueness, cant wait to do a scenario in which the baby and mother must escape the battle before they are annihilated..

Sounds excellent! I can't wait to use the nobles as fleeing high-ranking VIPs who have to be escorted to safety

Hi all, there's now less than 24 hours left on the Colony 87 Kickstarter. The project is fully funded, and it is likely that the figures won't see full retail release until next year, so if you want to pick a set up, now's the time to take a look!

I received the master casts earlier today, so we're all set for full production once the Kickstarter ends.

I'm in.

Looking forward to getting my toys and seeing what your next batch will be.

Ok I am in - hope it goes well.

Looking forward to seeing what else you can make - although if you can maje a sci-fi Torch Singer / lady Inquisitor I'd be very happy

Love the stuff but I'm gearing up for a move so I'm going to wait for them to come out in retail.

They are coming yes?

Hope to see more, I love grimdark (tm) civilians.

Retail will come in due course Kid Kyoto - although you
may need to wait a little while

Sorry for the bit of necro but I think it's best to keep this in one thread so people can see what came before.

Word on the street is Colony 87-Wave 2 is coming to Kickstarter soon and I just came across some previews.

I missed out the first time so i can't wait for this one!

I backed the 1st one and the minis are very nice. the kickstarter was handled very well also. I'll definatly be back when this launches

Are the wave one minis on sale somewhere, or are they strictly KS exclusives?

Not yet but I was told they'd be back on offer with this KS.

As long as the next Kickstarter ends after Salute, I think I'll be on it.

So they are KS exclusives then? Boo hiss.

Same here, I'm on a non-existent budget until after Salute.

Brooke, one post above mine, ONE POST, the creator says retail is coming. Course that was almost a year ago...

And when I asked he said we could buy directly from him or wait for the Kick Starter.

One suggestion I had was that besides offering them as Wave 1 and Wave 2, he also offer them as Noble Court and Market place. I can see myself wanting mutliple porters and mechanics but not multiple governors and advisers.

Look forward to this

With a prevailing wind, and a bit of effort, the 'Return to Colony 87' Kickstarter will launch next week. I hope to see you all there!

It's BrookM and a thousand pardons sir, but I always click "last unread post", so I didn't see that one.

Love these minis

Hoping I get to finish the first set off before this Kickstarter finishes.

Darn ninja'd...

These were great little minis, so really looking forward to this.

Looks cool, but they're not going to do that "get one randomly selected mini" nonsense again, are they?

What's the old saying?

Oh yeah...

FIRST!

Went in for the Old and the New, tempted to add the spaceport bundle as well, esp since I suggested it

Hum, managed to snag an early bird pledge for the new ones. Shipping is quite reasonable as well, £33 isn't bad at all, especially when well over half of the models are quite nice.

Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaand funded.

Managed to get an early bird too.

And it's funded already, well done Axiom

Thanks all! I've struggled to keep up and hadn't really started wave 2 promotion before Return to Colony 87 (R2C87?) funded!

Luckily Kid Kyoto has had my back and been good enough to share the links and images!

Pledged

I have the first round, yet to see paint... I love the new ones especially the welder.

Really love these figures, though they cost more than I am probably going to pay for single figures alas for the ones I don't like as much. At some point when i can pick and choose I'll surely get a number of them. As an FYI, I *THINK* the concept art has been up on Dakka for years for this project - a number of models we haven't seen yet are shown there that I would really like to see.

My vote goes to the fleeing family for wave 3

And mine goes to the administrators. The Imperium runs on these people!
