Honestly, now that I look, I'm not sure any of it is limited to the kickstarter. Which is great, really, means they really treated it as a way of enlarging the line, not as a store.

**Eilif**

I think Sophie is technically limited, but past years OOP LTD sophies regularly show up in promotions like their days of christmas sales.

I do think though that there will be alot of bones on ebay for a while, and if Reaper doesn't release all the bones at once and instead releases them in phases, a few choice models might become momentarily valuable.

Update for Canadian backers:

Canadian Backers Please Read - Shipment Update
Update #79 · Dec. 04, 2012 · 20 comments
Last week, we announced that domestic backers who did not combine shipments should have received their Sophie models.

There was a problem with all of the Canadian orders in how we initially processed them and we have now gotten them all back. So in order to get your Sophie models to you as fast as possible, we have changed plans and are shipping them all directly to you via US First Class Mail. This applies ONLY to Canadian backers that are being shipped 1-4 items and did not combine shipments.

Some of your orders are fairly large, 3 or 4 boxed sets, etc., and these orders are being fulfilled through our Canadian partner. To repeat, this means that if you pledged for 5 or more items, your shipment will take slightly longer than others.

We apologize for this delay and we appreciate and thank you for your continued support.

Latest Update :

"Oh My ...."

He looks hungry...

I'm pretty sure it's "Nethyrmaul the Undying" but the snout looks pretty short compared to the Wayne Reynolds concept artwork :

**Lt. Coldfire**

I'm really starting to think I suck for not jumping on more of these models

**Briancj**

With each update, I am more and more pleased with my investment. Annoyed that they used my email for pimping another company, but I got a nice apology.

Bigger picture of the head with a knight for scale.

Sort of a reciprocity thing, Paizo pimped the hell out of Reaper's kickstarter via email - if you look at kicktraq you can see the big jump each day they sent out an email about the Bones.

**Alpharius**

Looks rather well scaled (ha!) in that shot!

**kronk**

Looking good!

**RoninXiC**

Wow O_O he's so huge. Incredible

**BobtheInquisitor**

I thought they were going to make big dragons. That thing's hardly the size of a Chihuahua.

**SilverMK2**

Now that is sizable. Very happy I opted for that dragon now

**scarletsquig**

Yeah, needs to be bigger IMO.

If it stays as small as it is, it'll get lost down the back of the couch and I'll never be able to find it.

**Zefig**

You could almost accidentally swallow it. It obviously needs a child safety cap on it to prevent that.

That would be a marketable talent.

**Bolognesus**

...Depending on what's legal where you live, of course

**Commander Cain**

Something that big was $25? Regretting not pledging now!

**scarletsquig**

^ Actually, you could get it for free if you didn't mind trading in your kickstarter Sophie for $25 credit.

**General Seric**

Now I wish I had pledged for that undead dragon, it looks great.

**Azazelx**

I *think* I went in for a minimum of two of everything. 3x Vampire, plus at least 2 of each extra. Got a couple extras of some of the dragons to airbrush and give as gifts. Where the hell am I gonna store it all?

A child's shoebox.

**Azazelx**

That's where I'll be living. Miniatures are going to displace me..

**Surloch**

Was only able to go in for one of everything myself but yes, I'm now starting to get concerned where I'm going to store it all.

I think I'll end up spending more at places like

http://www.topshelf.net.au/
http://www.shelvingshop.com.au

Or similar than I did on the mini's lol. Might have to start planning now actually on how I'm going to fit it all somewhere...anyone have any good links for bulk storage? Maybe rent a u-haul or shipping container?

**lord_blackfang**

Boy, am I happy I pledged for this guy!

**czakk**

**BobtheInquisitor**

I'd like to see another angle, but something looks really off about his proportions.

And yes, sarcastic nitpickers, I DO mean that the proportions don't match those of REAL LIFE undead dragons. Because that's the ONLY WAY someone could ever complain about a dragon that could swallow its own ribcage.

The neck and head do seem large compared to the dragon's body. I'd suggest beefing up the body and tail to the bust's proportions, but it could just be the rotted flesh that's throwing perception off - if not the camera angle as you suggested.

Picture makes it look so front/top heavy that the photographer is having to hold the backside down.
