I'm a fan of Heat, but I first thought of Travolta to go with not-Jules.

I'm a little disappointed not-Raj didn't make it. I'm more disappointed the not-Al Swearengen didn't pop up.

Yeah, what's up with that?

Letters from the Moronosphere:

and that it is a final stretch goal sucks because we will get way past that

No offense CMON, but a little disappointed at your rather large logo on the tower. Couldn't you have made it smaller? Or like, on the bottom?

Not to sound ungreatful, but that's a pretty lame way to end the Kickstarter... I would imagine it's only a very small (but probably vocal) minority that would actually want this.

oh man, what a BS SG...
I like the sentence:
but you folks have been so amazing throughout all these weeks that we decided to just throw it in as a gift
gift
LOL

Pretty disappointing.

where have all the female survivors gone?

(I include that last one because there are 30 male and 20 female survivors (+ 1 muskrat), so it's hardly a massive disparity)

Looks nothing like vincent

It's just some White Hat complaining because without new female surivors he can't accuse GG and CMON for being sexist due to how attractive looking the female surivor is

I've read through about five of those comments before I stopped and called BS. The sense of entitlement is a bit much, and the kool aid is flowing over in there a bit much for my taste.

If anything, you can't say that the game makers are watching too much TV.

can't remember if they did a Robert DeNero/Travis Bickle, or a Hobo with a shotgun/ Rutger Hauer character yet.

The original buddy cops from Adam 12, or Emergency's Richard Mantooth, might be a little old for some peoples taste...

Extra firepower/ speed, and a couple of extra medics can't be all bad... except if they got bit, and started running around driving the car or emergency vehicle after you.

I've been planning on it since the beginning, but I finally backed it. In for Patient Zero plus Benny, Curro, Oksana, Nikki, and the glorious Moustachioed Pack. Can't pass up Ron Burgundy and Mister T!

It'll never happen, but the Survivors I would love to see would be: Charlie Day, Benedict Cumberbatch, Martin Freeman, Jennifer Lawrence, the cast of Community (particularly Troy, Chang, Annie, and Jeff), the Left 4 Dead survivors (first game), Joel and Ellie from the Last of Us, and the Payday gang would be pretty damn cool.

Edit: I added ten dollars for shipping, do you guys think that will be good? It's understandable, the whole "the more you get, the more shipping is", but it doesn't help me to know if I pledged the right amount. I suppose I could always not pledge extra for shipping and add it later, right?

No no no no. You're all wrong. It's obviously Kato Kaelin from the OJ trial

I think the real strength of the figure is it can be John, Val, or Kato. Pick which ever suits your personality

so Thiago has confirmed that the BoZ won't be available during the KS (or most likely the PM)

Thiago Aranha 10 minutes ago

..Short and to the point: There are no more BOZ coming. We're producing a LOT of stuff for Season 3, and there was just no time for those.

Brain fart, what does BoZ stand for ?

Box of Zombies

Angry Zombies and Toxic Crowd from the last KS - it was assumed that the missing box #7 and #8 would be box of zombies - Skinners and Seekers. They will probably be released at a later date.

Hopefully they will add Kabir before the end after revealing him in Ravage magazine.

Pay for shipping later:

Shipping Information

Shipping information - Please take note

Based on past experience, we will be charging shipping after the Kickstarter concludes based on the actual costs incurred to ship. We will collect this via our pledge manager after the campaign concludes.

This is so we can be fair to all our backers as shipping is rarely one size fits all, and also give you more stretch goodies and possibly a choice of carrier options.

We will ship your rewards at our cost to our international hubs. Depending on where in the world you are, we will either ship you from our hub in Germany (EU backers), China (Asia Pacific backers), Canada (Canadian backers), Australia (Australia backers) or Atlanta (USA and the rest of the world). Using the previous Zombicide games we have estimated shipping for these regions:

$11 to ship in the USA, about $20-$25 in the EU (due to VAT), $11 to Hong Kong and $15 - $25 Australia and New Zealand thanks to a new shipping partner, but this may increase or decrease based on the quantity of stretch goals we might unlock and your carrier choices.

Which is what they said for Arcadia Quest, and they've still not managed to actually decide what to charge for real

Edit I forsee a lot of folk thinking they've finished with the PM actually owing shipping and not realising it leading to hassle and annoyance when shipping actually kicks off

You're right, but with shipping being a year away there's not much else they could do - aside from a Bones II "pay what it would cost now" job.

I'm fine with it now that there's an Australian Hub. Australia Post gets expensive, but at a certain point they can go with AP eParcel or one of the many couriers that are often cheaper.

Not Al is in the next Game Night box. http://zombicide.com/en/gaming-night-kits

I like how you posted a picture of him looking exactly like Vincent as a defense against him not looking like Vincent. The only downside is I showed my sister in law, who's a huge Pulp Fiction fan, and now she insists I get him to go with the Not-Sam Jackson from Season 1.

Thanks ecurtz. I had forgotten Al was going to be a game box figure. For some reason I thought he had been lumped in with the Season 3 promos.

I think that was sarcasm. But as Adam said, use it as John, Val or Kato(!) as you feel. Buy two, or even three, paint them differently and go nuts!

Ok, so, 2.5m hit. 8 hours to go.

Raj... ?

and here we go -





and a new additional purchase to help move things along -





That's 7 BBT characters if we hit the final stretch goal.

I was expecting Raj, but not Bernadette! That's awesome.

Wow! $300k for Raj. How do stretch goals work again?

Now who else does a not-Sheldon model?

Raj is at £280k not $300k so I thought we will hit it

He means 300K to get to Raj (from 2.5m to 2.8m).

and Dave proxy - http://www.atticagames.co.uk/shop_tg.php

Bah, ignore me then. I am still half asleep!

The only one that I know of is the BBT set from Attica models (http://www.atticagames.co.uk/), but I'm really not a fan of their style. If someone else managed to produce decent alternatives, I'd be a happy man as I missed Season 1.


Actually, I stand corrected, there's an Italian version: http://www.elgenminiatures.com/miniatura/steevy-pack/#lightbox[gal]/1/. Not a fan of this one either

So now we have all the characters for Big Bang Theory: The Board Game (right?), maybe the inevitable Season 4 will feature more characters that actually have something to do with the horror/survival genre?

One can only hope...

Yeah. Like Ron Burgundy, Jules Winfield, Austin Powers and all those other ones they've made that align with the horror/survival genre...

Hm, agreed. If someone with a knowledge of human proportions or anatomy did a Sheldon, it would be great. Maybe Heresy will look into it?

These are just KS exclusives, so don't stress. The "proper" characters are the ones in the boxed games and the non-exclusives.

Indeed...

I keep getting a lot of messages for this game. If you're interested in storing all the models my 60 infantry tray and 56 infantry tray can store all the models.

So that's 280-300 models for $43 (includes shipping).

Ok, so $570 an minute for the next 6 hours, and we're home.
