Subject: Low Life Miniatures (28mm+) Kickstarter - Next goal Another Blor Porple 37k, huge Tenemental $40k
we'll totally get to the Plorp! just spread the word!
RiTides, even if you can't make the Kickstarter, the figures will be available for sale later on. I think the MSRP will be roughly 10 apiece, but they are 30mm and larger, and that's just the normal figures. (check out the greens and realize they're on 30mm lipped bases!)

I was dubious when i saw the (very nice) artwork - could they really be done as models? But scrolling down to your figures sculpted so far, you've actually done it, congrats!

We're inching along today, but we're getting there. Did you know every pledge of $300 or more comes with a super secret free original drawing? Don't tell everyone, but you'll get one because you're special.

I didn't even know that Low Life was an rpg based on the Savage Worlds system, but once I saw the miniatures I was in for the ride! Very unique looking miniatures, the story is tongue and cheek but quite entertaining. Also the creator was asking opinions on what backers wanted to see as far as concepts or other ideas and it was brought it up that a board or miniature/skirmish game would be great. With that I am invested in the Croach with the Moach level and I eagerly await as we hit more goals.

Update! Garden of Smellemental Glee added as $60k stretch goal!
The Garden of Smellmental Glee Awesomeness Pack: This set comes with THREE smelven monks of the Garden AND a Croach riding some sort of contanimatronic device (as featured in The Whole Hole).
AND the $150 level now comes with 42(!!!) 30mm and larger miniatures. Many of these will be made of resin due to the size of them. And, every $50 pledge comes with a PDF of the RPG and the sourcebook. Take a break from painting a thousand dudes in an army that all look the same, and get a set of some of the most unique and brilliant miniatures on the market!

Hmmmm... is there any way to pledge only for that, without adding it onto another pledge? Seems like people might be able to use those as... squigs... or something, but not want the various miniatures.
Anyway, it's over $40k! So, I guess that Tenemental is in...

Whatever you guys are doing to spread the word and earn us all more minis seems to be working. Keep it up!
Also, an update on the forthcoming Low Brawl mini/card game: The Low Brawl mini/card game is forthcoming. You'll be able to use any and all of the Low Life minis in the game and each one will come with a card to make that easier.

I will give an additional Shloorp miniature to all the Croaches with the Moaches ($150 backers), including anybody who raises to that level in the next day or so and anybody who's already there. IF, and there's always an if... If we reach Smyrt Happytree by midnight EST tonight. If today is anything like yesterday it'll be no sweat."

love how the pandalope came out, the concept is what drew me to contribute towards the kickstarter. I was also very impressed by how much interaction the creator has with the kickstarter. If you ask a question he will answer as soon as possible and address any queries you may have. He takes suggestions of what we wanted created, hell the reason he is thinking about a skirmish/board game is because all of the backers were saying it would be a cool thing to do!

As the Low Life Miniatures kickstarter winds down its last four hours I want to take another opportunity to thank each of you. This project is a great success and it obviously wouldn't have been without your support. As a thank you, I'm offering this final promotional push:
Free Umber Cuke
If we manage to reach the Garden of Smellemental Glee multi-pack at $60,000 every backer who pledges at least $50 will get a FREE umber cuke miniature (in addition to the one you might already be getting). That will mean a total of 72 miniatures for our Croach with the Moach backers and another umber cuke for everyone else.
That level will also unlock Squiggins Neverlost, The Cute Little Duckies, and the Sphincs. Smyrt Happytree just got unlocked over night, so that means a free Shloorp to all the Croaches with the Moaches as well.
Anyway, enough of me rambling. Thanks again. I love you all.
Every pledge, regardless of amount, is greatly appreciated. As is any final push anyone can offer to spread the word as we finish this thing off.
Thanks a lot,
Andy Hopp"

Well, the Low Life Miniatures kickstarter has ended and Mick and I agree it was a HUGE success. I haven't the words to express my gratitude and admiration to each and every one of you, so I'll just talk about how I don't have the words instead, hoping you'll get the idea.
Our hope is to have the first batch of miniatures delivered to you by the Holidays. After that, we are planning quarterly releases. The minis you get through the kickstarter, since they were offered at such an enormous discount, will not be packaged the same way as the ones that will be offered in stores. We didn't see the need to spend a bunch of money on clamshell containers when we could just give you more minis instead. They WILL, however, each come with a card for the upcoming Low Brawl game. Low Life Minis should hit stores late this year or early next year, with new ones coming out each month. We will try our best to get them to you before they are in stores, but distribution is a weird thing and this might not always be possible. It shouldn't happen, but it could.
In the meantime, I'll be busy updating the Mutha Oith Creations website, including the Low Life Gab Central forum http://low-life.us/simplemachinesforum that Thom Shartle was awesome enough to set up for us.
Those of you who ordered the Whole Hole and/or the Low Life rulebook will have them by the end of October. They will be delivered to me by the middle of the month and I'll send them out to you right away. If you will be at Con on the Cob you can pick yours up at the show.
Once we have some miniatures in your hands we'll be starting the kickstarters for Low Brawl and the new Low Life core rulebook. I know it seems like I do a lot of kickstarters, and I do, but please keep in mind I'm just one guy and I wouldn't be able to fund these projects any other way. So, thank you once again for your continuing support.
I can't speak for Mick, but I'm sure he shares my sentiments.
I'll be sending out a survey very soon to make sure I have all of your addresses and orders in line.
Thanks again!
Andy

Hmm... the estimated ship date for KS backers is Feb 2013 for the initial set of 9 miniatures; the estimated ship date for KS backers for the stretch-goal miniatures is June 2013.
I would guess retail release would be sometime shortly after each of those dates for the respective waves of miniatures.
