Glad I (barely) resisted this one... I actually briefly pledged, but their lack of communication During the campaign worried me, so I ended up cancelling it.
Hopefully they're just not communicating...

The walls are only half high so dramatic poses fit fine, in face the usual complaint is the walls should be higher.
Personally I think it's a good compromise.
That just makes it look worse. Just because they fit doesn't make it look like it fits. It just looks like something that's put there to represent a corridor, as opposed to the Hirst Arts version which does a better job.

If anyone really ends up getting anything from that project, such as those crew figures, and you want to sell them- send me a PM.
Those figures would go great with Star Mogual.
I've a few extra captains that need some more crewmates, since Mega Minis went tits up.
Really like the hallways, but that project really didn't look like they were being serious.

At Games Workshop, we believe that how you behave does matter. We believe this so strongly that we have written it down in the Games Workshop Book. There is a section in the book where we talk about the values we expect all staff to demonstrate in their working lives. These values are Lawyers, Guns and Money. |

Hopefully they address this- to not communicate for that long when it was supposed to be delivered now is troubling...

I almost pledged for the crew myself, for Star Mogul, Necromunda, etc.
Something about the campaign kept me from backing though.... not quite sure why. I thought I'd wait to get them retail.

Looks like there's been some positive movement on this KS. Anyone here get their pledge?
I'd like to find a way to get some of the starship crew at some point.

Oh man, what a mess. Their update saying they were shipping was on April 10 (after months of silence), and while a handful of people in the comments have posted about receiving things, most have not.
There are only 100 backers... however, despite saying they're shipping (and actually shipping some packages) the creator never sent a survey asking what people wanted for add-ons if they pledged more than their pledge level.
Ugh... and to top it off, I played a huge game of Space Hulk on this terrain at AdeptiCon (from someone who bought a prior production run batch long ago) and it was amazing. I would totally buy it if they would fulfill their kickstarter and make it available.
You actually can pay for a set here, but I doubt you'd get it...

Sorry for the necro, but are these guys still in business or have they taken off with the money? Their site appears to be down, shame really, as I was hoping to check in and see if they've finally found a more reasonable shipping fee for non-US customers.

I was wondering about this myself, I am still interested in the ship crew. I know they exist, can't quite figure out why they don't want to sell them ?

I did in the meantime find their new(?) site, but it's not showing the ship crews or their Laboratory X rules, just the old stuff with even more atrocious shipping fees! $55 in shipping for a $35 set?
PASS.

I checked into the comments on the Kickstarter and it looked like people are posting that they had been receiving packages, with overall positive comments (other than communication that is).
I've been wanting the crew so I sent them an email last week asking if they were available. They responded the next day and after discussion about quantities and prices they shot me a PayPal invoice.
Figures received today; they look good and I'm happy with them. A couple have a slight 40k Navy/Rogue Trader vibe but the others are generic enough to use in all kinds of settings. Hopefully they'll hit the market via a web store someday.

That's something I suppose, here's hoping that they'll at one point pick a distributor that makes this more widely available. I still want this stuff, but shipping is most prohibitive.
edit.
New website with some sales, but hey, they did up their shipping costs even more: www.creativegamescapes.com

So wait, it's now even MORE expensive to ship the tiles? I always wanted a set but not at shipping coasts greater then the set.
These sets feel like the Duke nukeum forever of plastic war gaming terrain.

Actually, this isn't vaporware, it's just a pain to get it shipped.

Glad to hear they came through.
The original tiles were never vaporware, I have the big 10 set package, you can see it in my gallery.

When I got it, before the KS I found they had great communication.
