Dropped Sophie for the Frost Wyrm and Hydra, as planned. Also added the Deep Ones (already included in my Pledge amount) and then added the figure case (so I've got somewhere to put all my Bones) and the Spider Centaurs because they're so cool.

-- Frost Giants x1
-- Nethyrmaul x1
-- Kaladrax Reborn x1
-- Red Dragon x1
You may note that I have lots of dragons
I actually miscalculated how much everything would cost once I swapped out Sophie, so I got the red dragon as a bonus

I not only kept my KS Sophie, but I also went for the Sophie collection.
Picked up all of the addons except for the "There be Dragons." I'm already getting all the other dragons, so I decided to drop that addon.

Well locked in my pledge:
Vampire x1 $100
Figure Case x1 $25
Deathsleet x1 $10
Deep Dwellers x1 $7
C'thulhu x1 $10
Only added $25 (mainly because I am a poor college student, and my parents would kill me for spending $300+ on miniatures).

Oddly enough...it would seem people do care. That is why you have various Apps and what not for smart phones that allow you to make instant posts to Facebook that say "Hey, look what I just bought"
I don't care - but I don't fault people who enjoy sharing. That is what the scroll bar is made for...just zoom on past them.

It displayed funny in the confirmation e-mail, but I dropped Sophie to cover international shipping. All of the add-ons fit into an existing fantasy army, but I lost $1 somewhere. Still, for the number of minis I am getting, I think I can afford it.

There's been a post from Reaper President Ed Pugh over on the Reaper forums addressing the issue of the delayed paint shipment for interational backers, and apologising
and the cause is one I never thought of.... An inability to source 300,000 paint bottles in time....
Quote:
Posted Today, 06:51 PM
Greetings everyone~
This thread was brought to my attention this morning and since I am the cause of this event it is only appropriate that I address this matter myself. For those who do not know me I am the President here at Reaper. Currently my full time job is planning, organizing and supplying the pieces to fulfill the Kickstarter.
As we all already know, in the last 3 days the KS ramped up from an unbelievable 1.5mil and 7,000 people to a staggering 3.5 mil and 17,000. There are worse problems to have, but it has created a logistics nightmare that I am working through.
My job is to have everything promised in the KS into everyone's hands during, or before, March 2013. To make this result happen I have already had to make several decisions. Some are simple decisions, like hold everything up for two weeks so a sculptor can send something in that was already past due, or substitute two existing models into the KS and keep everything on track. I chose to keep everything on track. Other decisions were not as easy. Like holding up international orders and consolidating them into one shipment.
The reason for this decision was not one of "losing money." For once in Reaper's history that is not the problem, but I do understand the obvious assumption here. The problem at the moment is paint bottles. For the KS we expected to need to produce 100,000. We confirmed the amount was available from the supplier and moved on. The reality is 300,000 bottles of paint are needed and I won't even get the last part of the shipment until Nov 5th. Then it still needs to be produced, pumped, packed etc.
AT THE MOMENT the plan is to ship domestic what I have. (First shipment) Then combine first and second shipments for international backers. I am researching shipping figure cases and Sophies for international backers, but I still do not have final data pending the end of the Reaper Pledge Manager period.
While I stand by my decisions, I will say I seriously dropped the ball by not keeping everyone abreast of the current situations. My tunnel vision of solving the problems blinded my to the equally important matter of communicating with everyone involved and for that I sincerely apologize to you.
Now with all that said I want to add that we are now, and have always been, a customer service oriented company. We have never denied or disputed a credit card transaction when the customer has changed their mind for any reason. If you, GentleGiant, or anyone are not satisfied and want out, please email Matt@Reapermini.com and he will make it happen.
