Well... We'll have to wait until March 2014 for THIS project.. who knows if they'll hit 2015 with the next one... and I doubt that.
Besides.. the Iron Empire has a pretty sweet SoB vibe.

I'm certainly going to wait for the Space Nuns, but if you wanted to do a much darker version of the Sisters, then Nertha would make a very sinister Celestine stand-in.

Ugh... that mini really does give me the creeps. An entirely different disturbing vibe to the Lulus.

I agree, she gives me the willies too. Honestly, though, Nertha is the first pregnant mini I've ever seen that wasn't trying to appeal to the tentacle-porn crowd. She manages to combine fecundity and malevolence without becoming obscene. THAT is quite a feat, honestly.
I don't think the Lulus were ever supposed to be taken in a child-soldier kind of way. I think they really were just supposed to be some light hearted silliness. It's the cyber-zombies I find disturbing.

Couldn't resist the Werewolves. I had to toss out a whole bunch of heroines to make space for them - hopefully, they'll be totally worth it!

This is the first kickstarter I've backed. Also the first set of minis I've backed since coming back from my 40k/minis hiatus from 5 years ago. So not only are 40k models now worth the same as Forgeworld models in a lot of places, but amazing sculpts and minis lines like these are even cheaper than the playdoh-like 40k minis. It's surreal.
I'm in for $200. They'll probably look nice as a Warmachine or other skirmish game army.
The only bad thing is that while I love the sculpts, I'm probably going to have to buy a new file so I can shave down the inappropriately huge and offputting boobtacular parts. Kinda wish those were add-on bits you could glue on top of otherwise reasonable armor. At least they have mostly decent poses and the troopers actually look like they belong on a battlefield and not a runway.

Is the following list of upgrades up-to-date and have they said what kind of head-upgrade Mortaria Noctis gets?

I think you'll be pleasantly surprised when you get ahold of your minis, stonefox. They've heard the commentary on the early versions of their sculpts, and have promised that reduced busts will be part of the finished product.
And, yes, Minx, I believe that is correct. They haven't said about the head, but given the history here, it will probably be an unmasked head.

Okay. I snagged the $715 EB Colonel so once I add in shipping that should do me.  I love playing the EB "mini game" in the final stretch.

Minx I think that list is a few behind.
I think I won't let many of my upgrades go unused. For example Elektra's spare head will find a home on one of the general grunt sergeants.

God I wish I had that much to drop on this KS.
I had to get a Commander and hope that would be enough. (Although I did manage to get the best version of the EB commander.  )
I agree about using spare heads, Kalashnikov! I'm going to use several of my spare heads to vary up my snipers. But which upgrades is the list missing? It looked like the latest ones had been added.

Sell one of your existing armies on eBay. That's pretty much how I'm financing all this.

I lucked out on an EB Commander at that scale too Jim. Getting me all the minis I want really. I might use these girls for various skirmish games, and eventually their own game, but I think they might just end up looking awesome in the display case for the most part, dumb as that might sound.
Ugh kinda having an unrelated panic attack right now, which is not helping me stay stable on my choice to back or not on this kickstarter. DX

Thanks, that's what i was hoping. I would have more uses for her without the mask/helmet.

Sorry, after all the time and money I spent into my completed armies, neither the Blessed Exchequer nor the FCA would forgive me if I sold them off now. (Not at any kind of price like what I would see on Ebay, anyway  )
