Ok, the hippo just stumbled into the chat and supposedly fixed my order, dropped some cannon fodder in exchange for my armored regiment support group vision.

Harry the Hippo
I got it then

YOu'll receive an invoice between today and monday
Pawel Antemijczuk
Great, thank you


Harry the Hippo
and then I'll modify your order

Not sure what exactly this means, I hope they get it right in the end.

Also I was very tempted to exit with "And now I must go", but alas the Hippo simply retreated into silence after this.

Ah, thanks. I never would have guessed that. I thought the hair coming across her chest was just her own but strangely sculpted.

There will be tracking info on all packages on the day they're ready to go, according to them. As I said in the KS comments, it'll stop working as soon as it reaches my shores... but that's what happens when you live in a frozen commie hell.

Whoops, so nice save me, I apparently had two of the KST Strategist on my order, so when I dropped one I still had one on my order. Really glad I emailed RH to get the Necropriestess now, of any of the models on my pile Ludmilla is the one I wouldn't be okay having an extra of.

Sure is quiet around here............
Am I in the right thread?

We're practicing our cool disaffection.


Life. She is a shrew. *long drag on cigarette*

I think we're being quiet for Relic Knights, the currently active train-wreck.

I'm not posting here until I get my shipping notification. Plus I'm in the middle of urgent renovations. Home office is looking like a warzone.

I am, oddly, in the same boat. (Or at least a similar one.)

There is only a finite number of times we can laugh about "And now I must go", etc. We're waiting for more pearls from RH at the moment.

They seem to have gone quiet. Probably realised after having finished 80% of packing, that they have a new improved way of doing that, so are in the middle of ripping open all boxes.

From their Tumblr, five days ago:

Wazzat?

What it is is slightly off topic.

It is also a Kickstarter that shipped really late (shock!) and, while it turned out better than expected, the miniature quality there won't match what will ship from this one.

It is, however, also a complete game as well.

After looking at this, I guess we should all be grateful to the french overlords, for going resin, not this restic goo.

Anyway, someone told me that there's "confirmed info" that wave 1 ships this week, although I have no idea where did that confirmation come from and what is it worth.

Shipping, who knows? They have however been most eagerly showing off the process of packing models.

We can all hope...

I would surmise that shipping must be keeping them busy. And I think the newborn is too young yet to help, too. Besides, they must be receiving a steady stream of new masters too, if they are too make good on their estimate for Wave 2.

They're not packing the kickstarter, that's a performance art rehearsal of how they would pack the order so they can streamline their workflow.

Raging Heroes on FB said

"Nothing in this hobby warms the icy cold bodily-fluid-exchanging-chambers in my central thorax like a miniatures company that actually interacts with their fanbase, appreciates the kudos they receive, respectfully responds to criticism, and does it in a polite and professional manner." Great article from House Of Paincakes.

I laughed..... then stopped laughing.

Wait, you mean he's not frothing at the mouth and angry at them? Is that just a dakka thing then?

His whole blog post is a pretty good read.

"Shush, youse. And don't you judge me. Go and have a look yerself (here's another linkie), and tell me Raging Heroes hasn't created an entire lineup of completely amazing models.
Go ahead, I dare you. Just don't blame me if you end up dropping enough money to get you in trouble with your significant other, like I did (moar on that later...)....

The models, including the cigar-smoking, helmet bearing Bulldog, are just...beautiful. Really they are.
And I've got 34 moar unique Toughest Girls coming, thanks to my involvement in the Kickstarter- including all the ones I posted pics of here, and many, many, many more...

Lil' backstory- when I filled out my Toughest Girls order, I went a lil' bonkers and spent the full amount of my pledge, using every last nickel to claim as many figs as I could. Now I figured I would hafta add a few bucks fer shipping- no big deal, I'd just use PayPal, and all would be well.
Unfortunately, cuz I'm a dumbass, I ended up billing the entire thing to PayPal, cuz I forgot to select the 'Use Store Credit' option and use my pledge money to pay fer everything...
It's not like the Pledge Manager Instructions weren't perfectly clear, cuz they were.
I am just an idiot. Anyone that's read my posts with any regularity can prolly vouch fer me on this one... "


Yeah, it's a great read. Though I struggled to focus on it through all the froth and anger induced tears.

Is it really typed out like that?

(I'm workblocked!)

I've picked three random paragraphs out of immediate context, but yeah.

I suppose we now at least know what makes RH happy?

Any chance you could copypaste the whole thing here?

It really is.

I had to stop reading it because the spelling makes my soul bleed.

I personally think the guy is an idiot, and his endorsement means about as much to me as Lois Lerner's thoughts on data security.

I wish I could get all my money back.

I have no intentions to play 40k in the future and that was the major reason to get the miniatures as a count as SM or SoB army..

Anyone interested in ~200$?

The extra froth and tears would make me explode probably. I'll have to pass.

You forgot this:

More girls ready to go out #theTGG #ComingSoon #behindthescenes

Good thing they wasted the time to line those models up equidistant from one another so they could take this photo.
