I should have my stuff on wednesday. If I remember correctly I'm getting 4 factions but not alot of extras.

**Hulksmash**

I haven't received a shipping notice yet. But I basically got the entire line and multiples of all of the monsters except the Hadross one.

**cincydooley**

Look forward to seeing everyone's input on the models.

**highlord tamburlaine**

Still no word on the West Coast yet...

My biggest hope is that everything I ordered is in the box.

The last few mini KSers I've had ship were all missing stuff (that were all eventually corrected) and it wasn't just the usual Mantic shenanigans. CMON goofed on my Rivet Wars and Arcadia stuff too.

If people are receiving stuff before getting a shipping notice, that makes me hopeful. Did you notice if they'd already labeled it in the pledge manager? I noticed that all of my previously shipped games all have the tracking information stored in there.

Mine hasn't been updated, but it wouldn't surprise me if you get it before the shipping stuff is updated. It's certainly happened in the past!

**Hulksmash**

Happened with my Zombicide. It arrived 2 days before I was notified it had shipped

**OrlandotheTechnicoloured**

My arcadia quest showed about a week before the notification email

**Alpharius**

Getting closer, and some have already shipped (obviously!):

Wrath of Kings Shipping Update 1/14/2015

Posted by CoolMiniOrNot

Greetings Backers,

This is a lite update but we wanted to post all the same to keep you all in the loop.

We are still staging and prepping the US Hub, but as some of you are aware we have begun to trickle out orders in the process. You should see an increase in pledges arriving as time goes on over the next few weeks. Meanwhile, the APAC Hub is in full swing and should be completed very soon.

The shipment for EU backers is en route (Ship: Eleonora Maersk) to Europe and we expect it to arrive by the end of the month. Once it has been processed by the EU Hub we will begin to ship out to Europe. Our estimate is that the EU backers should be receiving their orders by the middle to end of February. That is still only an estimate, but as long as we do not have an unforeseen issues should be fairly accurate.

For the AU-NZ Backers we are expecting to have confirmation of receipt of the shipment from the AU-NZ Hub very soon. Customs for AU-NZ always provides delay, but should be on a very similar time frame as the EU Backers. Expect to receive your orders mid to late February.

As normal, once we have finished fulfillment for WOK we will post another update that will explain how to contact us about any missing orders or parts request, which we will be happy to assist with.

As always we are very grateful for your support and can't wait to hear what you think of Wrath of Kings. It has been a long time coming, and we are indeed thankful for you patience. Wrath of Kings is a great game and we can hardly wait to hear what you, the Backers, think once you receive it.

Best Regards,

CMON

Mine should have arrived yesterday... USPS is being their usual dopey selves and not updating delivery dates. Based on where its at now I should have it on Friday.

I'm looking forward to it, but realistically its just going to go on the unassembled/unpainted pile.

**Alpharius**

I wish the OP would keep this thread title and first post updated.

I totally knew he wouldn't when he started it.

I should totally bane him for his slacking here.

What say you everyone?

TOTES BANE - yes or no?!?

I really thought it was gonna be me. Shew.

Hahaha

**RiTides**

Whoops

Title updated!

I think the OP is a good intro / summary to the line, so have left it as-is with just pointing people to new developments in the title.

**Thraxas Of Turai**

Cannot wait to see some of you guys with pictures/unboxings. Hopefully soon after this will hit retail and I can invest in some Hadross.

**highlord tamburlaine**

Seriously. Post some

unboxing photos for the rest of us schmucks who have to sit and wait (im)patiently.

I want to see some Fel Hammers and Shark men!

**Alpharius**

I too cannot wait to see "Production Miniatures" finally!

As well as Hadross...I too want Hadross now...

Plus, as we now know, Hadross is going to cause...

**DrunkenBoxer**

Just got my shipment today in Los Angeles. Ancient King pledge, but just Nasier and Shael Han.

It's missing the Iron Eyes promo miniature, but hopefully everything else is there...haven't had a chance to check the contents of each individual box yet.

Several people have complained about not getting the iron eyes.

I have a feeling these packages were assembly lined, and the person in charge of packing Iron Eyes had their thumbs up their ass.

**highlord tamburlaine**

Thanks for posting that Cincy.

Those figures look pretty clean straight out of the box. That bodes well.

Hopefully detail is sharper than Relic Knights too.

I'm about an hour or so from LA, so hopefully they're shipping stuff in batches to nearby areas.

Right? RIGHT?

Going to have to clear all these

dwarfs I've got clogging up my table so I'll be ready for my flying babies and big boned nekkid ladies.

**cincydooley**

Buddy just posted some more on Facebook. I'm going to pull them over to here at around 1130 when I get out of a meeting.

Look really good to me. I think once I get mine I'll make sure to prime a few up so we can see the detail once they have paint on them.

**Hulksmash**

I'm dying for my toys now. Even if I know I have like 2 projects ahead of them I just wanna take some out and start building them.

**RiTides**

I am definitely looking forward to the Hadross models here, too, for conversion potential

**Barzam**

The real question is, will I be getting mine before Tamburlaine gets his? So far, the score remains in his favor, but maybe, just maybe I'll actually get my shipment first this time?

**cincydooley**

Automatically Appended Next Post:
Can see the slight mould line on the dude with the longer spear, but it looks pretty basic and easy to clean.

**highlord tamburlaine**

YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS (he says in his most reptilian voice).

Got my shipping notice.

Supposedly Wednesday.

Hoping the box gets here earlier, but I guess I can survive on the piles of plastic, metal, and resin that are already in various states of completion.

Basically everything except the Shael Han and Hadross starters... at least for now.

Flying baby men here I come!

**RiTides**

Hmm... from those pics, these look like pretty typical PVC results, imo. Not bad for large models, but for man-sized models, definitely not the ideal material.

Cheers for posting them, cincydooley.

That is what my initial thought of the pics as well, saw someone on facebook saying you have to use diamond files, you can't scrape them.

I'll wait to have them in my hand before declaring the sky is falling.

**Barzam**

Those Hadross guys! I swear, whenever I look at them, I can't tell what the hell I'm looking at.

**Alpharius**

Or which way they're looking!

**Joyboozer**

Is that nipple tape or nipple armour? Does it improve her save?
