Borrow a cat, put catnip in the MODcube, take a video, post it to YouTube, millions of likes will follow.

I have two cats that would fit the bill... one already has a background singing role in one of my videos.

Two cats, one cube of catnip, batting starts in 15 minutes

I will see what I can put together tomorrow.

Have you contacted Mantic about doing a TWD cube??? If i get into the game I could see needing extra dice (or markers to show effect) for really large games.

That's a good idea, Theophony! We'll actually be posting in the Mantic section here to get some feedback on the very last set we need to circle back to from the Kickstarter, and that's Deadzone (since the rules were in flux when we shipped the rest! We'll be shipping these separately to all who selected them).

AdeptiCon just announced that they'll be giving out 20 sets of Dogfight tokens to participants in their X-wing events! Full announcement here:

X-wing players - Modcube is stepping up to the plate and 20 lucky participants will receive a Dogfight set (their most popular) just for participating in the X-wing Open and other X-wing events at AdeptiCon. The ModCube is an innovative gaming accessory which allows you to keep 6 gaming tokens of your choosing on a single cube. It was revealed at AdeptiCon in 2015, launched and fulfilled a successful Kickstarter campaign, and is finally available!



You can configure a cube for X-wing with a standard loadout of action faces, like Focus, Evade, Stress, Target Lock, Target Lock / Focus, Target Lock / Stress. Or, you can customize a cube however you like – putting in Cloak instead of Target Lock for Phantoms, for instance, or a double Focus face for Moldy Crow. It is entirely up to you, and that’s the beauty of the ModCube!

So did you guys win the Beasts of War Award? Have they announced the winners even?

edit: Nevermind! It looks like they answered the question in this week's show. The results will be up next weekend.

Warboss, that's exactly right - there's a week to go! The voting process ended up being longer than we anticipated - but if anyone didn't vote yet it would be awesome to put one in during the last few days here . The link is in my sig!!

We've been busy cutting sets for AdeptiCon giveaways and to offer at our booth, and also getting out batches of orders - word of mouth is absolutely how folks are finding out about our product, as we tend to get "waves" of orders. This week it was mostly X-wing and Armada sets, but last week was mostly 40K (especially objectives, but also vehicles and infantry!).

It's pretty clear from the trends that someone posted us up on a 40K facebook group one week and X-wing the next . If you have your own pictures to share of your sets in use, please post them up in this thread and we'll share them on our page

Here's what went to the post on Friday, more going out today:


And remember, if you haven't voted the link is in my sig below . Cheers guys!

My 5th set is in that stack somewhere...
or is it 6th.
These things seem to multiply.

Last I checked, you have a bunch of recent pictures of ModCubes in action, RiTides I will add some of mine from a month or two back.


Or really my one... I thought I had more than that!

You're right! Here's my pics of the cubes in use in our 3 recent games, it was great to get back to playing a bit





Would've been nice to win a game, of course

We're back in action after AdeptiCon, here's a thorough update

First, a pic of our motley crew from AdeptiCon (mostly Dakkanauts, by the way!). The venue gave us such a great booth location this year and we had a fantastic response from 40K, X-wing, Warmachine, Malifaux and Infinity players!



We might need a bigger booth next year - all of our cubes and tokens were squirreled away under and to the sides of the table. Special thanks to Ramos for suggesting we hang the banner on the pillar, what a great idea!

Upon returning from AdeptiCon, we got ready to move our laser cutting / token production shop, and finally got the keys to do so this past Friday. Here's a picture from late last night:



It is a Ton more space! But not quite as much as it looks like here, there is a mirror'ed wall on the right . And no, there was no murder in the middle of the shop floor... or at least, it was that way when we got here!

As always, we've got a lot of balls in the air here, so I'd like to list out what we're going to be tackling through the end of May:

- Producing custom token sets that were submitted near AdeptiCon, along with some sets we ran out of stock of at AdeptiCon and need to get sent out. There were also a few standard orders that were delayed (we've contacted each of you) due to Con prep, and we'll be producing those this week and including some extra cubes to make up for the delay!
- Making some custom objective markers for use in the 30K events at the Alamo GT. These were a huge hit at AdeptiCon and we're excited to provide them for the Alamo, too!
- Finally getting the Deadzone set finalized and sent out. Thank you so much to those who were patiently waiting for these - we'll make sure it's worth it, and like any time we are late, include extras =)
- Following up with our ModSubscribers, a few of whom still need more token sets to go with their cubes.
- Finalizing retail packaging - a few stores have nabbed sets from us even without this, but we're going to tackle it and make it easy to get into stores. We've had many requests and will be posting up as soon as the packaging is ready!
- Last but not least, making a few new sets!

Token Color Options

We also wanted to let you know here that we'll be removing a few of the less popular token color options from the webstore - but if any Kickstarter backer needed a set in one of these colors, we'll always be happy to make it for you! Just contact us here, or at info@modcube.com

The colors we'll be removing are: White on Purple, White on Grey, Metal on Blue, and Black on Silver (although an extremely similar look can be achieved with just inverting a cut on Metal on Black, so we can still provide this one easily). This will still leave us with 6 token color options (Red, Blue, Green, Black, Yellow, Metallic) and simplifying the options will allow us to keep more sets in stock and have faster turn-around time on our web orders.

We won't be taking this down for a week, so if you want something in one of these colors ordering now would make things easy! But remember, Kickstarter backers can always ask us later and we'll be sure to make them for you =)

Until next time!

Anyone know if modcube offers solid neon green for the token faces (acrylic plastic part)?

We just have the standard green for the tokens, Piston - we tried neon but it didn't etch as well. We do have 3 different greens for the cube colors, though, and the light green is really bright!

Note we're actually about to sell out of that color, since we had trouble photographing it well and so not many Kickstarter backers selected it (and so we ordered less of it). But at AdeptiCon with people trying the colors in-person, it was really popular . So just FYI in case you might be after it!

Any other questions just let us know

I just wanted to quickly update this thread to say we've got a new N&R thread going for the ModCube 2.0, which we just announced! Check it out here:
