May I suggest Typhaggahw, the wyvern for the Brythonaid faction. It's really an awesome beast, too.
The actual model is pretty awesome for that one? It interests me, but I wasn't sure from the pics that there are online.

OK, quick question...
I've long coveted Ungefelic, but I don't play Ys, at all.
Who can they 'ally' with, and how easy and/or 'legal' is it to just ally in Ysians with Ungefelic?
Huh, weird, it looks like the muster rules are missing the last page which would hold that information.....
I've got about 2 weeks to try and find out!
I sent them a message through KS in 1st Ed II, maybe they'll get to it tomorrow

Out of all available beasts, my top four picks would be Blood-Maw, Mjagnir, Conjunct XIII and Typhaggahw. I think the wyvern is pretty ace, but I guess it's in the eye of the beholder, eh?

I was a bit upset I missed out on vaak and MAALLOLVÓR, now I can get them for £30 each?
f'ing sweet...choosing just 4 will be tough from that list!
Haven't seen it here, so I'll cut and paste form the KS comments:

Thanks for posting that list, it is really helpful. I think I'll be putting together a bundle of Mjagnir, Druc, Ungefelic and Typhaggahw (I already have Blood-Maw and Vaak). But I'm really tempted to add on for a second bundle in the pledge manager and also get Kadámastar, Mazikílías, Conjunct XIII and Glaun.
What y'all getting?

Vaak, Maallolvor, Mazíkilías and either Kadamastar or Kaairioc-cro. (oh, and mounted Agriosavra, of course) If I go really crazy, I might throw in the other of the two mentioned, Khallas, Glaun and Typphagaw. I'll probably restrain myself though; I already have Shaaroc and Ygandr to finish and marked Galagaak coming soonish; that many big beasties will be a pain to store, way, WAY too imposing on the painting queue and just generally overkill in every possible way

I'm all about alternative models, but there's no way those will fit on 50mm bases! I wish Mierce would post more size comparisons. Just got all my agriosavra from cincydooley (thanks  ) and they are, for once, actually a bit smaller than I expected! Chaudon can achieve Tre-Manor-like detail levels, it seems, with really fine features. I think they're awesome, but I am always guessing about Mierce model sizes.
A "sir scales a lot" or similar in every pic would be most appreciated (such as Forgeworld sometimes uses with the running empire model next to fantasy monsters).

Oy! Agriosavra? Could you post a scale pic of that? I've been looking for just that - really hard to get a proper sense of scale from the photographs...

How fragile is the spine on Agriosavra? All the shots of him impressed me, but I worried about that.

Extremely thin, haven't tested to see if I can break it, but hence my comparison to Red Box Games here for the thin-ness of some of these features.
Bolognesus- I will definitely be making scale pics, although they come in a lot of pieces (separate legs, two head pieces, separate tail, etc) and I want to do a good job building them, so it might be a little while. If someone could tell me where to buy blue-tac that might be a faster way for me to get a comparison shot made.

Office supply stores are a good bet for blu- tac (the decidedly not blue equivalent around here is called pritt poster-tack or whatever - anything used for sticking posters to walls temporarily is what you're looking for).
Alternatively: couple bucks off of ebay? For modeling purposes, any remotely substantial amount will basically last forever anyway, so it's worth it if you haven't gotten any yet.
And please don't rush on my account, I'd be grateful enough just to get a few pictures already

CVS or any other local chained pharmacy store has blue- tac

To both of you, just email him, I'm sure he'll give you KS access.
Missing the deadline is not the end of the world, after all, it's all sales and good-will business for him, happy customers are returning customers.

I managed to miss the last minute four beast deal in the KS so I'm very pleased it will be added to the KS store later on as the big beasts are my favorite thing Mierce does.
I'm hoping the next KS has a few more smaller flyers in it, I'd also like a few more horses and the option to buy those horses without riders as its hard to get high quality horses.

Next ks will be Atalantes and Ériann with other Kindreds getting the odd boost. Reckon we may see the first cavalry units. I reckon the Atalantes will be popular
As for the beasts, definitely going to get Talos. Probably Glaun and Typhaggahw. Final beast will be either the Tarask or Flint fang. Not sure yet...

That deal is pretty amazing. I'm glad I didn't find out about it until the end of the KS because my wallet needs a break. I'm hoping KS3 has some similar deals.

I don't think Rob spelled it out, but really there's a limitation in place on what he can do (at least, this is my interpretation). He can offer good deals on older stuff because they either existed pre- KS or because WoW had great prices. He can't heavily discount stuff after that (from DFE or DFE II) because then he's coming under the prices that were paid by KS backers which ofc is not going to be a well-loved move.
Ofc we can only guess how he'll structure KS3 but I would guess the best deals will be on the Atlantes and Erainn starter sets.

Yeah, he made a comment exactly to that effect, that he can discount older models more than newer ones. I haven't actually seen that play out much before, but it certainly did here! Although the beat deal for the riderless new sculpts is also excellent.
I'm sticking to one early bird ridden beast, though.

Some of those sculpts aren't that old, are they? Mostly KS1 stuff and older, but some of those were released relatively recently (Druc, Maalovor and Chrysperis are listed as new releases on the Mierce website). Then there's Khallas, which is from KS2.5 and not even done.
