No, I messaged thru KS. I'll be sending an email directly to CMoN if I don't hear from them by Tuesday. Honestly, I'd be happier with a refund on the items I didn't receive.

I didn't get one. I'm betting the CKPM will still let you log in and check.

You can log into the CKPM. I did that this morning to see what I ordered.

Just compared my THI suits to various 40mm based figures. They're the same height and overall width as PP's Boomhowler Trollkin infantry and Ogryn Assault Corps, and same when compared to a plastic AoBR Terminator. I even adjusted the PP and GW bases to the height of the SW bases(they're taller basses than others). The body is thin, but the overall height and size are comparable to similarly priced infantry from other companies.

Here's the Measurements(no bases):

THI: 1 3/8" H, 1 1/4" shoulders
Trollkin: 1 1/4" H(1 3/8" if you include the hair spines), 1" shoulders
Ogryn: 1 1/2" H, 1 1/4" Shoulders
Termie: 1 1/4" H(1 3/8" at the scanner) , 1 1/8 shoulders

So, taller than the Troll and a Terminator missing the scanner, shorter than the Ogryn. Ties the Ogryn as the widest shoulders(outside of shoulder to outside of opposite shoulder). Looks tiny on the 50mm base.

Matching GW on price for a crappy restic model we payed for more than a year ago that is still tiny compared to most reasonable expectations?

Bravo.

Got mine,this afternoon. At first glance the quality is better than I expected and I think everything is there. Still...didn't really feel any excitement when opening the box, just relief for this one to be over.

based on how long it took to get the first wave out you've still got a couple of weeks before you need to worry they've forgotten you

(and I guess you'll need to factor even more time for Zombicide 2 as there were more backers, and the individual orders will be larger with the box games)

EDIT: I'm still waiting for mine too

I got my shipping notice a couple days after I got the box. I'm betting the notices are going out in waves and your wave hasn't hit yet.

Yep, no notice for me, either.

Agreed - the quality of the casts is actually quite good, but there was so much ****ing shrinkage that most of the extras look like they're scaled for a completely different game. Out of the KS freebie characters, only Vokker looks appropriately sized to the first round of miniatures on first glance.

The THI suits look pretty good IMO, and as long as you model them with the face plates in place rather than the tiny shrunken heads they come with, they'll fit in just fine. Pretty excited about how they'll work into the game, TBH. Same with Kara in the Gnosis suit - the model itself is really good, but I ended up replacing her head with an old Empire flagellent head I had lying around and I'll just play it as a totally invented officer character.

Drones also look good and should be easy to paint well, which is nice.

So, Wave 1 = good miniatures, bad mold lines, so-so rules. Wave 2 = largely disappointing miniatures, much better mold lines, improved rules. I'll still play and enjoy the game itself, but there's so much about it that has missed the mark and squandered its potential. Knock wood that SMV can work things out enough to get another chance with their expansions...

As high hopes as I had for all this, just glad my stuff came fast. Only for the reason to sell it on ebay, which was a lot more successful then I could have hoped for.

Honestly, most of the models I purchases for round 2 are more for display than for play. So if they are slightly smaller scaled I am okay with that.

I received my package today and i really have to agree with what Gomez and what a few other people have said. The model quality is pretty decent, but you can definitely tell that every add-on character model besides Morgan, Ramirez and Vokker has shrunk considerably.

Overall I'm quite happy with my Sedition Wars purchase (As someone who brought it purely for the miniatures.) While the model quality could be better and the PVC mold lines are just an absolute nightmare to remove, in the end though the core game only cost me $125 for roughly 100 decent quality Sci-fi miniatures which i consider to be a pretty good deal.

I received my main wave 2 package a while ago (though I haven't went thru it as I am at college) and a second envelope with Vokker.

I guess I will have to see if I got everything that I should be getting in the second wave with the reported problems now, did it seem to be only with the paid extras, or also the basic figures of the second wave that problems have occurred?

Can anyone who has it please put up some pictures of the terrain pack? Also, I'm curious if it is the same material as the drones, or if it's restic like everything else.

I haven't found any time to assemble my 2nd wave stuff, but the drones look like a lot of fun, if not terribly detailed. If the terrain pack is similar, I will want to buy it. If it's more restic...eh, maybe?

There are pics (painted and unpainted) a few page back in this thread. If you mean actual pics and not studio pics, I don't think anyone has their terrain yet.

They look like the same material as the regular minis.

The terrain is supposed to be in the hard plastic like the drones.

A pdf version of the wave 2 rule cards are now on the Sedition Wars website.

They are designed for print and fold hence half the card being upside down.

Yay!

This may not have been the most well-handled, satisfying Kickstarter ever, but I'm feeling pretty good about pledging right now.

Oops, I just remembered how much I paid for THI suits.

Drat.

Maybe some more drones will cheer me up.

I got all my stuff today, and while everything is there and in good condition (aside from heavy flash) I am still not sure if I want to keep my copy. Kinda worried about how little it would go for on Ebay, though. I'd like at least 50% or more of what I originally paid into the Kickstarter, but I'm not sure the demand is there for even that.

As a related note....man, those wave 2 figures are absolutely tiny. Beyond heads, Ridley's arms are about the thickness of the back banner poles Space Marines use to come with.

Nope, just Biohazard models, Ridley, a THI and an updated rulebook.

Not sure how much you pledged, but Biohazard with the wave 2 stuff goes for 130-140. Saw a few sell with bids so I put mine up and ended up going for 155$ but mine was 80% painted.

Note Wave 2 for me was whatever extra stuff I got for free, I didn't spend any extra money on more guys, just the 100 for Biohazzard.
