Deep Dwellers? Lesser Warp Daemons that will attack the players as they transit from one planet to another.
Haunts/Fire It Up? Warp manifestations!
Beholder? Enslaver!
Skeletons? More fodder for Quest.
Vermin? Dark Heresy! Necromunda! Quest!
Zombiehunters? Zombicide!!!
Who's Your Mummy? More Quest!
I'm sure I'll think of more. Not getting Sophie nets me the Frost Wyrm and Hydra for +$0, and that's awesome!
Damn it man, stop giving me ideas!

I even thought of cool rules for the Frost Wyrm - it's a psychic creature that uses its powers to cloud and confuse people's minds. Fighting it is like fighting a ghost. You swing at it only to find that it's actually behind you, and has been the whole time.

And there's a couple of very nice potential Rogue Traders in those Chrono-scope models. And those big armoured guys with the huge guns might work in Sedition Wars. Should I go on Brook?

Now the big guys with guns (and the wee lass with the big gun) I can do without, hate their look and style. Also, I already have miss Dubois as a metal for my RT games.

I had no desire to pledge for this Kickstarter but I had to give it a look...and wow...You get way too much stuff for 100$
That's incredible...even if I don't have a use for these, I can't say no to this deal. And the figure case sounds great too =)
At last free shipping to Canada =D

I'm pretty disappointed with the owlbear. It just looks goofy. Besides, they should have gone with a centaur, for obvious reasons.

More Bonus Miniatures! Vampires, you'll get one of each of these, and Undertakers, you'll get two of each. This pack includes the Vampire Lord Judas Bloodspire, a vicious and terrifying Ghast, a Death Knight (which also serves as a skeletal warrior in armor, or any one of a number of undead combinations!) and a powerful Lich Lord!
Hold on to your hats, Boneheads, we're counting down by hours now and moving faster than ever!

Another 130k shouldn't be an issue! I expect it to be more than met by the time I get up tomorrow.

Apparently it has been above $15K per hour for the past 4 hours and it is still in the "slow" part of the day. Still another 11 hours till the end of the KS/ KT day - so, yep - I am thinking a new goal should be shown before Late Night with Jay Leno comes on.

Getting harder and harder to resist...
And that Owlbear looks weird to me.
Maybe it is just the pose?
It is 'supposed' to look like this:
I'm not sure exactly what it looks like when I look at the miniature!

It looks more like this:
And he's doing a rather odd left leg kicks out type of pose...

One of the guys in my gaming group has that model in metal. It's a bit better looking than the picture would suggest, but it definitley has a derranged look about it and is in a "swooping in for a kill" pose.
I'm really looking forward to the Owlbear and Griffon as "big" additions to my Animal Warband in Song of Blades and Heroes. Asside from rats, there haven't been any other animals in this kickstarter.

I really wanna jump in, but I just can't :( Well, if I did, I'd have to cancel my Dreamforge leviathan pledge and frankly it looks like Dreamforge could use my cash more at this point  That and I'd rather have the leviathan anyway. But the amt of stuff you get for $100 here is just insanely awesome. I also know that I would pretty much never, ever have the time paint everything.

They're getting close to 10,000 backers. If they start tossing in some more sweet optional add-ons the pledge numbers are going to jump even higher in the remaining time. At the rate things are picking up I could see this breaking 3 million.

This is the way to go. I'm splitting it with 3 other guys so for a $25 investment, we each get more than 50 figs!
Of course most of us have significantly raised that amount through add-ons...

Yeah, that happens. I am buying multiples of several things, just so I can paint and sell them. (Why don't people want to paint their mini's?) Anyhow, I am excited, and want to see where this ends up.

Dude I just signed up for the Vamp, and I'm going back in for $40 more for the $15 clockwork dragon and the $25 dracolich. My wallet hates me for buying so much on one paycheck. Two Hot Toys 1/6 scale figs, 6th ed Box set, and now this (I gotta tell someone who won't slap the gak outta me). My wallet.....it hates you all.
But this next month....I'm going to have so much fun!
