In summary:

I take personal offense to a company making a product that I am not interested in buying and doesn't fit my preconceived notion of what should exist in this fictional universe.

The fact that this non-requisite option even exists invalidates the entire enterprise and I cast aspersions upon anyone who disagrees with me.

Why are they wasting time on this when they could be making products that appeal to my niche tastes?

Basically this, multiplied by ten-thousand. My fiancee and I blew through the four seasons of Breaking Bad in two weeks just before season five started, so, needless to say, this one is pretty awesome to me.

I got my mother to watch all 5 seasons of Breaking Bad in two weeks, and watched the last 8 with her, so yay for Heisenburg! And Scarface. Now all we're missing is Raj.

Well on positive news the comments section is better looking now with people cheering for all the recent stuff. Insane people. That being said when I saw Walter White I think I almost squealed like a schoolgirl. That is just epic and an excellent done survivor. Heck even his lore makes sense, which is rare for these exclusives. Loving how this is going and CMON looks like it is playing its cards right as it heads into the final 48.

I already asked about the buck place holder pledges and was told no.

I was told however that they would take late pledgers possibly when the campaign was over, so there's always that.

To be fair they don't have a $1 level. So you have to pledge at least $100 to get the ball rolling. That said I'm assuming we can still bump our pledge during the manager. I basically wanna spend 50% now and 50% during the pledge manager. Keeps the wife from stabbing me

Ok, well 2,200,000 hit. We get to say hello to our little (zombie) friend now. Not far off the Heisenberg.



Update #49 Jul 26 2014 - Two Stretch Goals Unlocked! Two More Revealed, and One More Optional Buy!

We're in the last day-ish of the campaign, and things are really going crazy. We've blown right past the $2,200k Stretch Goal and the commemorative $2,256k Stretch Goal, and we already have over 10 thousand backers! Now anybody getting Curro will also get his Zombivor version, and all Infected and Patient 0 level backers will get both Survivor and Zombivor versions of Spencer!




Now how about an Optional buy for that final push?




Here's our next Stretch Goal:


And, finally, what we're pretty sure will be the last Stretch Goal.


We conceived of this folding dice tower as an Optional Buy for the campaign, but you folks have been so amazing throughout all these weeks that we decided to just throw it in as a gift. I really hope we can make it!



Our folding dice tower is perfect for making sure your rolls are nicely randomised and don't go flying off the table or knocking over figures. Because of its clever folding design and hard plastic construction, it can be easily carried around. The dice tower comes with 5 stickers of all Zombicide boxes for you to customise your tower! The folded tower measures 10cm x 12,5cm x 4,5cm.


I'm'a gonna call him John Culkin.

That's what I see.

And HBMC....go check out the comments. I regretfully stumbled into them after this update because I was appalled that so many people apparently haven't seen HEAT and thought this was either Blonde Vincent Vega or Brad Pitt, and the bilious hate about the dice tower as a stretch goal is reaching critical mass.

Hell, I don't really use dice towers because I can like, roll my own dice, but even I can see that even non-dice tower users like myself can still use the thing as dice storage.

I just wont ever understand how so many people can be so unhappy so often.

I'm not anti dice tower (though I won't use it), but it doesn't seem like the kind of stretch goal that's going to really push it forward or get people to get off the fence about pledging. Nor is Val Kilmer really. Needs to be something relevant and cool. Ghostbusters $20 add on with a goal of the zombivors would be a huge hit, or something similar.

I think it may be Travolta from pulp fiction. Slap some black hair on him and boom.

If $2.5M+ is on the table? I'd think they want to squeeze every dollar they can out of it.

It looks a lot more like Kilmer.



They should have used current fat Kilmer as a bloated zombivor.

After the first season Tarantino debacle I think his resemblance to Kilmer is intentional.

I'm a little disappointed not-Raj didn't make it. I'm more disappointed the not-Al Swearengen didn't pop up.

I'm confused. They intended for the figure to resemble Kilmer but it is Travolta?

That doesn't make much sense to me.

Well that's your problem :p.

I don't like Kilmer so it's Travolta. In Pulp Fiction. Just give him black hair. Of course I'm not getting this one anyhow. The new mustache pack broke me of my "gotta catch em all" habit.

It's not Vincent Vega without a bolo tie. That's Chris Sheherlis from Heat.
