25kg package of restic would make a good solid mace. Or perhaps the sharp mould lines would make it a morning star... hmmm.

Man, my two packages together only weighted about 4kg. max. You guys went nuts on round 2. Though, somehow I wound up pledging enough to wind up with a compendium. I didn't even know I'd spent that much.

Anyone else get weirdly colored resin in their orders? My female Enforcer scout wound up being partially clear blue.

I also wound up with a bunch of medium sized bases. They're probably around 40mm or so. What are these for? I checked all of my bags, and everything seem to already have a base with it, so I'm confused about what I'm supposed to do with those larger bases.

It's not all restic; quite a bit of plastic as well.

I love Fedex's website. Just signed for my packages so he'll leave them.

I just got my retail Forge Father order from the website. Got a little note about the Forge Guard and thats fine. The restic looks a TON better this go round.

Hopefully nothing is missing, can't check it too well right now as I'm at work (got it shipped to my office) but it looks good from the quick look I got.

Barzam, those 40mm are for your peacekeepers coming next month. I had the same questions.

Reality is a nice place to visit, but I'd hate to live there.

For you guys with notices did you do paid courier or are you getting notices for normal shipping too? Can't remember which I did.

I had gotten a notice but it was shipped Fedex International Priority - but did not pay for courier shipping. I believe it automatically got bumped because of the size/weight, as Fedex at this size is an order of magnitude cheaper than normal postal carriers.

I'll keep an eye out, then, thanks. Aren't they supposed to be done soon so they can start MA?

Mission Control says estimated shipping finishes week commencing 15th September - which still gives them the rest of the week.

Still no word on my wave 2 either - I'd only be upset if they start shipping MA before they finish DZ2 but MA is still about 2 weeks from shipping.

Ahh OK rest if the week then good to hear. Means I can fret about getting to see my SciFi battle systems before the fantasy KS closes this week, then fret about Dz next week.

Nah, the Sell Renton KS isn't scheduled until after Dreadzone Kings of WarPath Saga Expansion XII.
Sometime in Spring 2015, IIRC.

I meant the Dreadzone Kings of Warpath Saga Expansion XII. But I'll probably wait for the Xtreme variant.

It might be worth saving up to go all-in on the x-treme variant of Ronnie, too. I believe you get some free Fisty Glue Man on the side.

Meh, it's the fedex guy; I rarely encounter him. If it was the mail woman, I'd probably leave cookies or something. She works hard for her money.

I got my 6.6kg Deadzone box yesterday. I haven't checked too closely, but it looks like everything is there. The bast part about wave 2: bundles are packed together in one bag and labeled.

Now showing Catachan Jungle Fighters and World War zombies!

Painting total as of 30th November 2025: 136 plus a Deva King statue

Painting total as of 12/31/2024: 107 plus a set of modular spaceship terrain and two walkers and a quad mech and five giants

Runnin up on ya.

DZ package came today (at home with sick baby) and it would have been here sooner if the knobs at Mantic had put the correct zip on the shipping label; usual Mantic experience for me thus far and I haven't even opened the box yet.

Six mistakes mankind keeps making century after century: Believing that personal gain is made by crushing others; Worrying about things that cannot be changed or corrected; Insisting that a thing is impossible because we cannot accomplish it; Refusing to set aside trivial preferences; Neglecting development and refinement of the mind; Attempting to compel others to believe and live as we do

Mine arrived yesterday.
At my mailing address.

I'll get it Friday night.
But I'll be going out with friends.
So I can open it and look in the box on Saturday.
Unless I have a game on.
And Sunday-Monday I need to write reports.
Because I have an all-day meeting at work on Tuesday that the reports need to be completed for..

So roll on, next Wednesday!

I'm not sure the saddest part. That such a KS could exist or that I could be overestimating how long it will take to reach that level of sequel.

So my initial pledge level was in the $500+ range because I wanted all the cool goodies, then with the second survey I added another $360, so I doubt that I will see my stuff anytime soon. Last year my package arrived in November.

He's got a combo order with a few other people so there is that...

But at a glance, I'd say the answer is "A lot" - and most likely battlezones upon battlezones of scenery!

I anticipate my shipment to be relatively light. Kind of. I think I got the new 'extra shapes' battlezone, (anyone got that and taken pictures yet?) and my two ruins sprues from the first survey, 90 zombies, and a starter+bundle for the expanded universe factions. Oh and 6 striders. So... quasi-modest box, surely.
