a new Impact! project offers 12 frog folk either for RPGs (with smaller heads etc) or as Chibis (with larger heads etc)



you can buy the minis directly as physical prints

or you can buy the STLs if you have a 3D printer of your own

if you want to check out the prices etc here's a link to the preview page https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/impactminiatures/2060591964?ref=78irpp&token=eebf0e15&fbclid=IwAR2gr5KaJCiKCY26s1599W5NxqPiGnxPAgf2EWUf1RreTRPn3doPWar-rtY (remember it's not live yet, i'll edit this once it is)

Digital Models - You can purchase the STL 3-D Print file for any of the below 24 models for $2 each. One entire set of STL 3-D Print files for the 12 models in either RPG or Chibi format is $15. All 24 STL 3-D Print files are $25.

(NOTE: The RPG Frog Folk Merchant is available for as a free download below .. you do not need to buy it!)

Physical Models - You can purchase individual physical copies of the miniatures for any of the below 24 models (see the image for price per a model). One entire set of 12 physical miniatures in either RPG or Chibi format is $65. All 24 physical miniatures for this KickStarter (both sets) is only $110. The sets are discounted for this KickStarter from the expected retail prices of $70 and $130 for the sets when/if they go to into our retail store.

The physical models both RPG and Chibi are designed for an average Frog Folk Villager to be 28mm in total height when standing. Since most Frog Folk are shown of smaller stature than a Human in most RPG settings we feel this scale helps show that well.

Free Sample!
If you want a sample of the models, Cute Loot Miniatures is providing the RPG version of the Frog Folk Merchant for free to download for your review!

I think my son's head would explode if he saw these. He is only 4 though, but he loves frogs.

Anyone have an idea how well they might print with FDM?

typically minis don't print terribly well with FDM, and these are on the smaller end of things, but the large heads might mean you can get away with it

if you've got (access to) an FDM printer there's a link to download a free stl of one of them so you can give it a try

you could also upscale them too

Yeah, I have it but I have yet to set it up, haha. Literally a $400 paper weight at the moment,

I backed it anyway, I am going to get a resin printer at some point anyway, so I just took the plug for $25. I think my son will get a kick out of them in any case, great print or not. And my wife said they were cute and she wouldn't mind painting them, so double win.

Thanks for sharing the Kickstarter though, would not have found it otherwise!

We funded in 17 minutes ... wow ... we were not sure how the project would be received but are really excited to see the funding goal reached so quickly!

Cute Loot and Impact are still working on stretch goal for the project so that we can make sure to deliver quickly ... but we both agreed to set a Stretch Goal at $1500 and while we were working on the update ... we crossed the $1500 amount and unlocked it! So happy to announce the unlocked Stretch Goal #1.

And the better news for all the backers. We are going to include the digital file for free if you backed a digital set and if you backed a physical set we are going to include a print of it for free! So free Frog! Thank you Backers!

We would love to unlock many more stretch goals. If you can please go to this post and share it. https://www.facebook.com/impact.miniatures/posts/2668027886771255 . We would love to add several more new frogs to the project so any assistance is very much appreciated. Thank you for backing and we look forward with sharing with you where the project goes from here!

Automatically Appended Next Post:

Almost $2700 the first 24 hours ... that was a great start and thank you.

We added several stretch goal late last night and we broke one of them during the night!


The Frogfolk Warlord is now available to lead the war party for the village against any and all invaders (or just on a very important hunt to feed the village).

Because the Warlord is a finest warrior in the tribe, he is a more imposing being. To show this, the physical models will be slightly larger than the normal Frogfolk.

We have several more models planned and we already have our first backer request Chibi being sculpted now (which will be a non-Stretch Goal add to the project).

The Warlord is being added free to all full digital sets either RPG or Chibi. If you just want him as a single digital file outside of a set he is $2 He is an add-on model for $8 as a physical model.




Chibi and RPG Frogfolk Warlord physical models shown next to a Spear & Shield Frogfolk for scale

More stretch goals to come! Help share the project to unlock them all!

Thank you backers we crossed the $3000 mark this morning and unlocked the Frogfolk Thief! Up next .. the Frogfolk Fisherman will unlock at $3500.



Now the Thief would like to take a moment and let you know that he would never steal from his fellow villagers. He is the specialist the Chieftess calls to silently slip into rival villages and load up on their supplies for the good of his people. He would like to think of himself more as a Plunderer!

However you think of him ... the model is now added for free to any full Digital set. If you would like the Thief as a physical model, he is a $7 add-on.





Thank you backers for all your support and we forward to unlocking more stretch goals to come!

Tom @ Impact! & Keith @ Cute Loot

Thank you Orlando for posting these!

Since Orlando's Last post, the project has unlocked the Frogfolk Fisherman and the Village Elder.

Thank you backers yesterday we unlocked the Frogfolk Kids! So they are added for free to all digital backer sets and have been included in the add-on list for physical backers as a set.



Cute Loot Miniatures has updated the stretch goals and there is a Bard waiting to tell us the tribe's history so all remember at $4500 and something big seems to be coming for reaching the awesome milestone of $5000.



If you keep unlocking stretch goals ... we'll keep coming up with new ideas for what comes next!

I think they could print well in FMD, with the cartoony style they don't seem to have a lot of thin details.
And if you want better results, you can buy a 0.2mm nozzle to improve the level of detail (of course it's as good as resin but it's totaly usable).

My mom has a strange fixation with cartoony looking frogs. She's got them all over the house and in the garden.

Yet she can't stand real ones. Odd.

Totally going to paint some of these up for her. Plus some for me to harangue my lizards.

Bard unlocked

and up next



And many backers requested to get a Mounted Frogfolk Warrior and Keith has delivered! In addition, he is working to make sure that the model will be a one piece STL and/or Physical but also that you receive STLs for the Beetle, the Saddle and the Rider as a separate digital files for you to do your own kitbashing to make extra mounted warriors (or even an entirely different race's mounted warrior). Finally we are working to make sure the Beetle design can be shrunk down to 10mm and printed okay in resin so that we can add an extra pet as we've had requests for more pets.

All this unlocked at $5000 so if you have not suggested to your friends to check out our project ... now is a great time to do so!

I'm sure the kid doesn't care what scale the frogs are -- go download the free .stl file, see how large you can print it, and post a pic here! (:

IM has several KS completed, and I am happy of the one I backed way back when. Also, they have chibi figures already for sale, so you don't have to wait.

We've doubled the number of models in the Digital Reward now with unlocked Stretch Goals since we started!

And I really want to unlock the Snail Riders! ;-)

FINAL 12 hours.

We unlocked so many stretch goals that the project has grown from 12 models to 35 models and we have more stretch goals to unlock in the final hours.
