The barricade stretch goal indicates you get two sets of 4 barricades for free but can't see that they would be quite that generous with them so would guess its a mistake or bad wording.

The wording from email -

A set of 3D plastic barricades: contains 4 plastic barricade pieces

And the image says you get two sets of barricades for free.

Are all these VIP zombies going in that VIP box, or will they be in all the Kickstarter cardboard swag boxes we usually get our extra zombies in?

The box comes with 20 VIPs - 4 of each of the ones shown in the artwork - that's the retail set. The Leia, Elvis and cop are KS exclusive and will be packed separately - they usually do up a packing tray for all the extras and box them in a plain brown box. CMoN commented that they have at least 10 different VIP sculpts so it's possible they will do a second box set of the KS exclusive ones.

The cop VIP looks really good. I might even get me a few extra of those if allowed.

Given that we have Amy, we really need Penny and Bernadette to call the gang complete. Stu would be nice too

Heh, knowing his luck, Stu would only be available as a Zombie..

YES!!!!

OK so those barricades are in 2 parts the mattress part is separate and clips on to the lower section using the 2 triangular pieces to hold it so you get an incomplete barricade then stick the mattress on top and its completed. So the stretch goal is 2 barricades in 4 pieces

Not to mention Will Wheaton...

Does anyone else feel like they visually missed the mark and a lot of the concept?

In season 2 they had problems with 2 of the Survivors being to close to the source material they were parodying, and had to change their bio's and minis.

This way there can be no condusion based on the bio that they are the same.

Wasn't that S1? Jules from Pulp Fiction and Uma from Kill Bill?

While I enjoy the bbt crew getting a full team, how have the ghostbusters not made it into this game?

Much more difficult to get those uniforms and proton packs in as "generic survivors with no connection to any pop culture, really, honest."

Probably becasue half the people playing it aren't old enough to remember Ghost Busters ?

If they insist on doing all these celebrities, I wish they would stick to ones that have something to do with Zombies, or at least the horror genre.

All these random pop culture ones feel rather saturating and not in theme with the game.

Well we're less than $500 away from the last stretch goal (Zombie not-Leonard) being unlocked. This one is going crazy! The only reason it's the Number 2 KS project right now is because Reading Rainbow is number 1. Kicktraq has Season 3 trending towards 7 million, which is of course stupid, but still funny.

You must be new to this. They've got everyone from Basil Fawlty to Pamela Anderson. They've got references to everything.

We are $855 away from that as of this post. And just over 5000 pledges as well.

I like those barricades.

Those barricades will fit in pretty nice with Zpocalypse's barricades and defensive gear.

In fact, a lot of what I see in Z3 seems like Zpocalypse has done already...

Zpocalypse is a totally different beast of a game however, and doesn't really have that arcade-y feel of Zombicide.

There's a place on the shelf for both!

Yes I am new to Zombicide. My opinion stands.

The wording is very confusing. Thaigo, who appears to be acting in CMoN's stead for answering rules and campaign questions:

CORRECTION: Sorry guys, I just realized I got a bit mixed-up about the barricades. The 781k goal includes 2 COMPLETE BARRICADES. Each barricade is composed of 2 pieces, so you'll get 2 sets of 2 pieces, forming 2 complete barricades. Sorry for the mix-up.

The barricades look really great, and getting 2 complete ones will be nice. They look like they'll hold paint very nicely, for use in other games as well.

So the Police zombies are now unlocked and the next three goals are up, including Gordon Ramsay

And now for what we have in store! Here's our next three stretch goals!

Gordon Ramsay. LOL!

I can't help but wonder if Jesse will have the Loud skill and be able to combine food and water cards to make health packs

YES! The loud skill would be hilarious on him! Maybe they will make him proficient in using the Pan so its no longer a useless card.

His blue level is "Starts with Pan"

The Pan is lethal when you give it to the preacher... He can take out Abominations with it! *clannnnng!*

He should start with Loud and Taunt.

I guess if you are going to buff up a damage 1 weapon to damage 3 you may as well have some style about it and humiliate those aboms.

The Zombivor version actually looks more like Ramsay when he's melting down on Hell's Kitchen!

Not to be that guy, but I feel like we need some more paid add ons to go along with this update. Maybe even just the other guest boxes, but something like the mustache pack from S2 would be nice.

I know what you mean, but I think it's probably worth them holding out another day or so before throwing more paid-for bits into the mix as it is still moving upwards. There are 26 more days left

To be honest, the next add-ons should be the first three game boxes as there are enough people asking for them in the comments section... that would give us a boost for another day or two
