There are definitely a few things where I'd like more info for pledging, but I'm pretty much happy with that. Think I'll be dropping $40 more than intended, but that isn't so bad.

I think that makes me happy too?
I think?
I'm not the happiest that it's coming out this soon. I can understand wanting to know how much he'll have to order, but I find it problematic to be adding models and expansions to things that are only in concept art form.
Pledge Manager is starting to be opened, first 1000 backers will get access tonight or so.
Will be open for a month
We have opened the pledge manager up to the first batch of 1,000 people! Invites will be sent out shortly! Provided everything is looking good, we will continue to invite more backers everyday!
We have started to collect email address for Late Backers. We will invite late backers into the fray after all the backers are settled.
As of writing this, I am planning on keeping the pledge manager open for a month. If there is anything you missed, now is the ideal time adjust your pledge! Depending on how long it takes to get everyone invited and whatever bugs come up might effect how long I keep the pledge manager open.
I find it annoying all the shipping is TBD and each wave requires its own TBD shipping costs. I only bought the 1.5 upgrade but I feel for people who are probably paying 5-6 different shipping costs over the next 3-4 years

Agreed that it is a bit annoying, but with the way that shipping rates changed and the time between releases, I can't think of a better solution.
Filled out my pledge manager - the pinup boxes were a good idea to try to simplify things - but they distributed things poorly between them, kinda defeating the point.
It'll re-open, at least once between each wave would be my guess... too many potential sales for them to miss out on for them to not do that.
I removed some wave 4 stuff to allow me to get more wave 1 stuff, no doubt ill be able to re add the wave 4 goodies when it reopens.
That's a possibility, but most likely prices will increase with each reopen.
Owning all the current expansions, the game already has more than enough content for a lifetime. I opted to just add Campaigns of Death, Silver City and Abyssal Woods. Then, I went and just broke down and added Ivory Dragon. We'll see how much my will continues to break down over the next month.
Well, another $245 on top of my $777 Black Friday Gamblers Lantern, for a grand total of $1022. But I THINK I got everything I needed - the crossovers, Satan and the hard plastic board, (which is a bit of a gamble but...).
Why do I want everything? Well, because I'm crazy.
The only thing I was debating were the new bases, but I just have no idea how many sets I'd need to base all the new monsters, and the inconsistency with my current monsters would probably bug me.

Odd, I filled it up a day after I received the invite and didn't get any reminder.
didn't add anything over the stuff I already had added on KS, wasn't much left anyway still I would love it if he offered an empty box as an add on.
Over here, on the fence about dropping $40 more or not, decided not to get the other expansion I'd been debating, but mostly already decided.
And shipping's going to be a beast, though a little less bad for those getting pinup bundles. Nice for those who got the giant bundles, but still don't think the price makes them close to worth it.
The pledge was my brother's to begin with, I just managed to snag it for him. He's still staying on target though: 1.5 upgrade, adventure book and Hyper Light Drifter mini.
