Potentially dumb question.. is it possible to get in on this kickstarter even though it has ended?

The answer to that question is no. I know some Kickstarters were taking pledges for those who had just missed the deadline (because the server was slow), but this one has been over for a long time.

I tried.

You should be able to get into the Reaper Bones action (although you'll pay $150 for Vampire level, and 20% more than during the KS for add ons

to get into the pledge manager try here

Reaper Bryan confirms it's still possible on this post from today (although you might have to wait longer for fulfilment)

Orlando is correct. I did it. It's $150 for vampire level, but you can drop the vampire biker chick and regain $25. So basically it's $125 with shipping for the vampire level minus the biker chick, or $150 with the biker chick. Quite the deal still.

You can also just wait for release.

There is that!

Reaper's BONES line looks to be remarkably affordable stuff.

When can we expect release?

We’ve finish casting all of the 1000s of Sophie models and we have received the ball caps and T-shirts from our vendor so this week we will be starting the shipping of these items, including shippable Crown Jewel rewards. Things will be showing up at your doorstep soon!

We are on schedule still to start shipping everything else next March.

We’ve added the ability to add special characters to your address. If you need to make changes to your address like using cyrillic, please go back to the Post Kickstarter Reaper Pledge Manager and make sure your mailing address is correct. For your security and protection your original log-in tokens are expiring, so when you log-in again you will get a new log-in link sent to the email address you have on record with us.

The PDF downloads are now available at the Post Kickstarter Reaper pledge manager. If you log back into the RMP your success page will now have the download links for you.

and finally, it’s not the greatest picture as we didn’t take it, but you’ll get the idea.

I wonder how much that puppy will cost.

I cannot wait until March. SO. EXCITED.

I am going to rock one HELL of a Warhammer Fantasy Quest campaign!

The neck is a lot chunkier than I thought it would be - just hoping it is hollow so I can cut out between the ribs (assuming that would be possible once I have seen the model ).

The guys at Reaper said the retail is going to be around $500 for the models in the vampire level, so might as well get it for $150 if interested.

Wait, 500 EACH!!!!!!!!

Unlikely, the way i read it was that the full retail value of EVERYTHING in the vampire pledge level would be 500+. That dragon alone would only b e a fraction of that...though if memory serves that was an Add On anyway for around $10-20 bucks so I would expect it to be $50-$80.

While jumping in on the Vampire level has a metric gak ton of models, I wouldn't use more than like, 10 of them.

I think I'll just wait for the models I want to release.

I split the vampire level with other people so I could buy a bunch of the add ons and make out with my bank account relatively intact.

Vampire will be a lot in the end.
But the add on stuff (like the dragon, giants, Cthulhu etc) I imagine are pretty good value as well

Kinda wish I'd gone for this, given the quality of the models.

Bones are running at about a third of the retail of an equivalent reaper metal model. All their big box dragons and the like are still quite affordable in metal, so I'd expect the hugest bones models to still be $50-$75 or even less.

This guy is a foot tall with 16" wingspan in metal and he's $99:

PFFF, If i buy one of those 50$ models for RPG's my PCs will start getting ticked at why every boss os a skeleton dragon.
I paid for it, i use it.
But still a good model.

I've been dming for a few years now, and my players have come to call my Tiefling Skeleton minis from WoTC after they fought an NPC named Aisha in the Skinsaw Murders Pathfinder adventure... Later in that same adventure, a doppelganger type monster was disguised as a living version of Aisha, and without thinking about it I placed down the same Tiefling Skeleton for Aisha...

So now, whenever we see the Tiefling Skeleton on the board, one of my players asks, "Is that AIsha? What's she doing here?"


I would probably use the giant undead dragon for everything too

Tieflings...

Just kidding!

Sort of...

Methinks you're being unclear good sir

Even if there is not alot of spaces, the in between can be left black to mimic the effect or, alternately, be painted glowing for a more supernatural effect. As to the chunkiness, most skeletal models are disproportionately thick. Otherwise, they would be slender and fragile which can cause serious practical issues (see the WGF skeletons). I think this looks like an effective compromise.

As to price, the Bones minis seem ultra affordable. I imagine that the minis probably wouldn't be more than double the KS cost. The Vampire deal is good if you can use or split it, but I only want a handful of the minis (several of which aren't even done) so not ponying up that kind of cash. I would prefer to see the final sculpts and spread out the purchases.

We got another green!

I suspect that shortly after the models ship you will be able to find lots of them on eBay and in the Swap Shop, as almost everyone wanted far fewer than they actually will get. Of course, we may all want the same stuff...

Im so happy i got this kickstarter. At the end i will pay aproximately 5 times what i inteded to pay (conversion rate of dollar, taxes and obviously the impulse add-ons.

But man, it will worth it.

The future seen so 3D for my RPG games in the future...

Is it just me, or the closer we get to march, the farther away it seems?
