I am thinking now, whether I should go and talk to my dropship, before they ship stuff. I actually haven't, although it's the biggest shop of that kind in Copenhagen and I've got another from the same company down the street. If we won't know anything from RH, maybe it's safer to ensure they tell me something...
I would if I were you, I've been checking in with mine periodically to confirm they were still involved as the project dragged on, and to inform them when I locked in my pledge with them as the location, so hopefully they'll take the time to email me even if RH don't.
Myeah, just tried to contact them via FB, otherwise it's a train trip for me.

Crap, hope that doesn't happen to me. I was planning on looking for a new apartment next year and I can already foresee issues with getting RH to change the delivery address mid-shipping...

Well, looks like they've taken a break from packing orders to go through the drop ship backers and work things out. Though looking at the comments there's at least two locations with insufficient backers to qualify.

Three. The Carbondale, Illinois location missed it by one. Shame, really, since there's a good chunk of the midwest that we'd be the closest to.

We'll find out soon enough eh.

Seems I was one of the lucky ones then, got an email from my dropship confirming RH have told them they've got enough orders to qualify, and they've been informed the first dropship wave will be on the way "soon"(tm).
Hopefully RH can hold it together and refrain from any more "artisté'ery" until this whole turgid affair is done with.

Well, the 23 minis of Wave 1 ought to hit retail this summer/early autumn. But it won't be enough to field a full army. Unless you like children soldiers.

I agree. But if you were to make a full army of them, if you didn't want to wait 6 weeks for Wave 2 to be ready (ah!), then you'd have no choice but to use them as rank and file troopers.

The Iron Empire: Drusilla (Kickstarter exclusive), Mortaria, Vera Krabbenhöft, Lady Hilda von Stroheim, Jinx Automatically Appended Next Post: Please note that of those 23 minis, 3 of them are *almost* useless as game pieces. They'll make cute objectives, but that's about it.
But it's ok, their game isn't ready yet, anyway.

Thanks buddy.
The animal mascots are cute. Maybe not useful as actual stand for models per-se.
But like you say, they would make good objectives.

Quick translation of the guy who got his minis' (OMG am I really typing this?) opinion on the resin : "Quality is here. The resin is similar to FW resin, without the holes."
Sooooo... good news, at last ?
Can't wait to get the first part of my pledge. I don't live very far from where RH is based, so, it shouldn't be long, I hope. ^^'

I don't think they gave any indication the hand-poured resin was headed out at all. I do hope, for their sake, that this is the spin-cast stuff.
Some people seem to have a shamefully negative opinion about us, on that forum, too. Automatically Appended Next Post: Oh and my pledge manager was completed back in May, multiple wave shipping. It's been three weeks. I know I got put at the bottom of the pile. Or they really are shipping 20 to 30 orders a day.

Spruing on those figs is very similar in style to GW Finecast spun resin. The piece at the top of the right hand figure looks like part of a circle which would be consistent with spin casting.

Lol....I've met people on the street that don't play wargames that have a low opinion of Dakka. We should be honored to be hated so.
Seriously though, other forums think Dakka is kinda a horrible place.
