Button mashed and pledged

https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/jeremyglen/creature-caster-first-wave

In for silver earlybird , pincer daemon will be mine.

Welp, there goes the first $300 or so...

I wonder what that will be up to by the end :(

Done and done. Now how long do I have to wait to see some stretch goal unlocks so I can throw more money at you?

Yeah, I actually pledged for a silver early bird too, likely for the Warrior Demon. Will have to look at my finances closer to the end but that's actually less than I expected it to be (granted, I know I'll have to add on for shipping later) so I'll likely stay in for it

Holy cow, they're gonna hit that $30,000 goal by 12:20

Probably sooner (there at 11:16)

Muahahaha, Vulture Demon will be mine. Also; jeebus-motorboating-christ, the prices - £45 + shipping for the "silver" models, that's less than a third the cost of similar models from "well known competitors" with at least equivalent quality(and in the case of the Vulture Demon, IMO, also with superior aesthetics).

Now I just have to hope you don't come out with more stuff I can't do without, hah.

Only 10 of the silver early bird level left, in 15 minutes

Funded!

Does anyone know what the unlockable parts will be? Has it been in a video somewhere that I've missed?

Congratulations, your pledge is officially met!

Hell yeah, got the bronze level early bird special and the awesome Spider Deamon! I was actually really surprised by the price too. 65 CAD is nothing for such an awesome model.

Also were we supposed to be given a survey to ask us which model we would like after we pledged or will that be sent to us later?

Oh man, the more I look at that page, the worse it gets. Free Bronze level model with $700.00 pledge. Tempting me with all sorts of nonsense... Must... resist.

Yodhrin- I agree, I was kind of shocked at the price! Very reasonable, although again, shipping not included (but it never is on a website order, either). I was actually just going to pledge $1 to watch it, but I'm glad I checked at launch because at this price I am so in

And already funded in ~16 minutes, well done!!

That's usually sent after the kickstarter time ends.

Also note that if you want more than one model but not the bundle, the add-on prices are halfway in-between the early bird price and the normal price, which is nice.

One Vulture Demon coming my way!

Aye congrats Jeremy

After what we've been told I'm actually pretty unconcerned about the shipping price. Assuming as the page indicates they'll ship from inside the UK, it shouldn't be more than £5-10 extra depending on weight and service used, the final cost will still be fantastic value.

GUYS! WHAT JUST HAPPENED!

We reached our goal in 16 minutes.

I cant believe Tides beat me to the link!

I am going to be here and on the Facebook and on the campaign page all morning (morning for me) so ask me anything you need.

Thank you for making this an amazing launch!

Whatever happened to the plague demon? Is that one of the unlockable models?

Pledged Bronze for the Spider Demon, was hoping to get the plague demon as well but it's not listed :(

I also can't find Postage costs anywhere :(

The Plague Demon needed reworking, it may well show up as a stretch goal I think. Postage costs will be calculated after we use the pledge manager, but from your flag, you can get a rough idea by figuring out how much a model like this would cost to ship from the UK, as that's where EU folk will be getting theirs from.

If you pause the video at 2:22 you can see 3 stretchgoal models. 2 or 3 headed dragon, tree woman and undead dragon (sure looks pretty bony to me).

Was hoping to get early bird specials on everything but I hope they have some good deals on the additional models added like they do now (extra spider demon was 70 compared to 65 early bird or 75 normal).

Do we know at what pledge levels extra models will be unlocked?

Damnit I fell asleep!

Thanks for the ambassador'ing Yodhrin. You are correct.

All of the models coming up that will be unlocked are secret, but you will not have to wait long. First wave of unlocks is parts, then the first model will be unveiled. 22 day campaign will go by fast, so the updates will be fairly furious.

Any specific pledge amount you're looking to hit before you release those? Or are you going to stagger them out so that they don't all come at once because we like throwing money at you (which I'm sure we'd be more than happy to oblige if you want to do it that way)?

Linked the KS to my blog, hope everyone else does too, it'll help the stretch goals , not that it's doing bad right now .

Practiced button mashing

Thanks for checking in here, it is much appreciated!

MadCow, you're right about the profiles shown in the video. But the Plague Demon (not one I'm interested in, but it has been mentioned by others a number of times) was definitely mentioned as a possibility by CreatureCaster earlier in this thread. If enough folks ask about it maybe it will get moved up in the queue

Here's a video which someone just posted in the comments showing it and some of the others (from earlier and WIP still, of course):

Thank you very much for the linkage and support.

Well, I WAS planning on trickling out the stretch goals. Well, really there are a lot of UNLOCKS first, then stretch goal model. I am going to publish my first wave of unlocks much sooner than I had anticipated, probably tomorrow evening.
