Thanks for the heads up! There goes another $30 rounding it out to a full squad of 5... that saves me having to buy two metal ones as well.

I was thinking the same. Not ever so keen on pluck foam as it never quite fits what you wanted in there. Still.. storage is storage I guess. I'm sure I can find something that I can fit in there.

Like cardboard tiles and counters?

I'd be all over that one... Easily in my top 5 favorite video game characters.
Seconded (thirded?)
On the bag, does anyone know enough about BattleFoam products to know if that price is competitive?
I've been meaning to get a BF bag for some time, so this is obviously interesting, but I've no real idea what this is comparable to in their product line.

Hmmm... on the one hand that's a nice bag, and it actually does save, as the cheapest shipping from BF for me lists at about $16 or so. On the other, that's not nearly so inspiring as the many other deals, and it's a honking big chunk of change.
Its going to hit $600K before midnight tonight and there will still be 60+ hours to go.
They have to do something more... probably a few more somethings...

The BF bags really are the best on the market and IMO their foam is much better than Sabol foam. The bags are sturdy and are more like luggage than other bags that are more like cooler or lunch sack material.
While a bit pricey, they're pretty much on par with what you'd pay from another company for something comparable, only higher quality.

Decisions, decisions...
US purchasers get free shipping on the bag if bought through the Kickstarter.

I've literally doubled my investment since I joined this KS.
I may just ahve to delete my account afterwards to prevent more spending!
Mine has tripled..... I can run a Sedition Wars tournament with all the stuff I'm getting!
I started off as Biohazard. Now I'm up to almost $500... jesus christ. I hope I don't regret this! I will definitely be preparing to paint all these guys!

That's my problem as well. Wel, the problem part is that I can't afford $500 this pay. They better release some info on that pledge manager quicksmart.

You technically have 7 days. Better to pledge the $$$ to the kickstarter for the purpose of goals then the pledge manager after I think.

Well for those wondering how the CKPM worked for Zombiecide, when the kickstarter closed, Amazon charged the amount pledged. Afterwords they sent out a link & password for their web based tracker (rather than the usual kickstarter survey) It reflected the base level you plegded and allowed you to assign the "leftover" cash on extras as appropriate (and update your address).
Now the Zombiecide one did include an option to go over your pledged amount and Paypal the difference to them, including adding in extra Abomination sets (though not core) at the $100 point (no discounts like in the actual pledge) keep in mind they also announced this BEFORE the close of zombiecide, and haven't mentioned this YET that i have seen for SW.
While it's certainly possible they're playing coy just to increase pledged sales, it could also be a case that Kickstarter themselves whined about losing their cut of the extended sales, and pointed to some clause of the TOS that it violates.
So while I'm hoping that I can add extras later (as T5 closes Saturday too, and my next check is the good one i can spare some cash on), in which case i'll add some THIs, Terrain, Lights out, and maybe extra opticamos and maybe another Biohazard and a bag, as it is i pledged $200 to cover my biohazard and 2x Ridleys, Hexens and Calamaities, with one Banks & Ramirez, and i might try to squeeze an extra $30 out to guarantee opticamo just to ensure i get the limited versions i want

If the stretch goals are there, HBMC, I think we could - look at the spike Mantic had in the last couple of days, for instane, which I suspect was driven by all the stretches they were adding at the end.

I have to say I think this latest 'homage model' was a bit of a stumble, I think a better known character would have done even better for the. The day started off incredible but seems to have slowed down a touch now.
C'mon Studio McVey finish strong bust out something breathtaking!
Of course it slowed down. It was night time in the Northern Hemisphere! It still made more money yesterday than any other day so far during the whole Kickstarter, and we're already at over $7k for the next day!
Only 5 grand 'til we hit $600k and there's 61 hours left. It's not slowing down.
