It's not Iron Man, it's Wolverine. The guy's name is Howlett and he has three small claws popping out of the downed hand and the back hand has detail that can be seen as three claws. Well played, Mantic...

I think they saw Alpha's post. The latest update is titled "I am...".

And what am I? As Alpha said: I am Iron Man.



Sergeant Howlett.

So he's Iron Man crossed with James Howlett (aka Logan aka Wolverine).





Ahh feth it!

*adds book*
*adds $8 for Iron Wolverine*

That's the spirit!

Hey there was an iron spiderman, why not iron wolverine. That one is cool, not sold on the "middle management" space elf or 100% on the zombie fish-wife, but if the rrest are as cool as iron wolverine I may pick up the bundle.

I'm picking them up because I'm a completionist and because I'm only getting Enforcers/Plague.


And that's it for me. I'll see you guys in the morning...

I just hope we get to 1m.

I'd like to get the $45 package for the solos, but I'm not sure they will make it.

Looks like over $10K an hour coming in so should piss it in.

I would be surprised if we don't make the million... I doubt we will see all the characters... Iron Woverine yes... next one...not sure but who knows!!!

Likely to be $1060k for the full set of characters. Should be doable, easy.

I'm actually hoping for something really good, and free for $1.1mil to finish this.

Aargh. I was in it for the 285 terrain bundle, looked over, and realized "Hey, for just $50 extra I get this game with like 50 figures to go with all this nice terrain."

^ And a gaming mat that matches your terrain.

Gah SS, I hope I never run into you in a used car lot!

I'm amazed at how much Mantic is getting me to spend. Getting dangerously close to $400 which I think is the highest I have ever gone for a ks, crafty buggers...

I'm well over twice what I was going to spend on the warpath kickstarter. Its madness. Helps that they have done a triple threat though... awesome boardgame with lots of bolt-on rules and expandability... sick terrain including some sweet antenocitis bundles... and compatibility with warpath!

Yeah, it's going to be solidly in the #2 slot of "KickStarters I've backed" for certain.

Kind of surprised it's beating out my KD:M pledge, but I've always been a sucker for sci-fi...

975k now

$1,050k gets the Combat Mech



They could be cutting it fine on the last 3 characters

I upped my pledge to 200, which is 200 more than I have, so amazon will be bugging me till I find some income again!

Strike - 142
Fancy Book - 40
Cards or iron... enforcer - 8

Leaves me 10 dollars for... something. Plus add in anything I add during the survey!

Zomg mech! Thats exciting. Wonder how much they will want for him, their larger items have been pretty reasonable i nthe past (looking at the iron ancestor etc)

The Dreadball one was $12 so probably not more than $15 - remember this is already sculpted they just need to make a new weapon arm and maybe change one or 2 details but a separate arm is most cost efficient for them..

Oddly enough the hard cover rulebook was the straw that broke this camels back.

The BOGOs are nice, zombie are sweet, but it's all Q2 2014, when I expect I'll be neck deep in Warpath Kickstarter.

I'm in for Strikeforce and the two rulebooks, which I'm hoping will be ready by December, and that's it at this point.

Still sitting on 8 unpainted and unplayed Dreadball teams waiting for the rest of the models to fill out their rosters.

Yay for the mech! I already have two DB ones ordered which I was planning on militarizing anyway but I am sure I can squeeze another one into the mix.

How exactly does one buy time with their is pledge payment date? I have been billed immediately after every KS has ended. I dropped my pledge level to avoid causing issues but payday is Friday and if I can hold it off I can pledge a lot higher.

Is there a list of stuff that's first/second shipment? I've also seen people talk about a second survey.. Does that mean there's a chance to add items to your second shipment items.. Could you add additional first shipment items to your second one?

I think people have suggested using amazon's grace period, if they charge you and theres not enough money they give you a week or something? Better get a confirmation from someone more in the know on that though. You can also add money whe nthe survey comes out to get what you want, it just doesn't add to the total for stretches.

Amazon generally gives you some time to pay if the first payment fails. How long that is, I don't know, as I usually pay up pretty a day or two after.

Usually you get a week to sort out the payment so Friday should be fine.

990k

You get a week after the Kickstarter ends.

Had this problem with a pledge on a game I decided to back at a much lower price level and forgot to change the pledge amount to something more reasonable.

Amazon will remind you, Kickstarter will remind you, EVERYTHING will remind you to take care of it by a certain date.

I was wondering about some of what Mantic is up to, as illustrated by DaveC's pledge 'shifting', but obviously it is working, as they've brought in 600 new backers in the last 3 days (includes this one, which has a ways to go!), at an average of $257 per backer!
