Final 10 hours ... new stretch goals!
Wow ... this has been an incredible project for me. Being able to bring back so many Heartbreaker figures from the Chris Bledsoe estate. Then we reached $14,400 which when I started I really didn't think we'd hit and now we keep rolling.
On a side note ... today is my birthday! I'm 48 today ... but I sure don't feel that old. Being able to work in the gaming industry as president of Impact! part time for 6 years and then full time the last 5 years has been incredible. This project's success has been an INCREDIBLE birthday gift ... so I really sincerely want to thank the backers for that.
Since the last update we blew way past $14,400 so all 16 sets whether BIG or MEGA now have one extra free Heartbreaker miniature added to them. Full details of what figure was added are on the main page.
So we also reached $15,000. This allowed us to raise the funds to create a production mold for a previously unreleased set of fantasy monsters from the Chris Bledsoe estate. The Trillobtye Mother & Larva. As a thank you for bring another figure from the estate to production, all backers will receive one free Larva if they have pledged $15 or more on the project. In addition, the full set of 4 minis which will normally retail for $11.50 will be part of the Add-ons for just $7 if you would like the full set. (please note the below is a picture from the masters). The mandibles are both going the same way but when you assemble it since the mandibles are seperate pieces they'll be going opposite ways and the minis will look much better. I did not want to damage the masters for a better pic.)

New stretch Goals!
Sorry the delay in posting an update this morning came from spending several hours with my spreadsheets and making a call in to my caster to double check the pricing on what it is going to cost to offer this project to you as well as more stretch goals. All math is finally done on all the costs of the project and I can safely announce 3 more stretch goals for the project to take us through the final stretch.
Stretch Goal #32 - $16500
In Chris Bledsoe's estate was a bag of masters to create a weapon sprue for 28mm to 30mm characters. If we reach this stretch goal, we will have the funds to create a production mold for these sprues. As a thank you to the backers who have pledge $15 or more, I will add one random weapon from the sprue to their reward for free. The full weapon sprue will also be added to the Add-on section for $3.
Stretch Goal #33 - $18000
Kev Adams who sculpted many of the great miniatures in this KickStarter suffered major injuries from a break-in many years ago. Several sculptors banded together to create the fund raiser GoblinAid to raise money to help him. After the KickStarter, one of the sculpts came up for auction with full production rights, Judge Goblin. I purchased the figure and donated it to the Chris Bledsoe estate so the figure could continue to raise money for charitable purposes (in this case the Chris Bledsoe Pay-It-Forward fund). If we reach this stretch goal, I will include one free copy of Judge Goblin to each backer who has pledged $15 or more. I have already added this figure to the Add-Ons for $2 if anyone would like to get him if we do not reach his goal (or get more than one if we do).
Stretch Goal #34 - $19500
Okay this is a huge number for this project to have reached ... so if we reach this point ... I'll give every backer who has pledged $15 or more a $2 credit for free to get anything they want from the Add-ons when the pledge manager comes out in March.
