Metal unless stated otherwise. They don't do any (or very little) Resin.

They'd make spiffy objective markers. All sorts of fun, thematic missions you can have saving the meerkat village. (Or destroying it, if you're a monster!)
Also fun - get the meerkats and then greenstuff little hats, suit jackets and briefcases for them. Then they look like little businessmen. Or just wait, by this time next year Reaper will probably just release Meerkat businessmen on their own (which is why they are so beloved).

You could put many of them on a base to make a meerkat swarm.
Emergency food source.
Draft animals for a very small cart.
Weapon conversions for a meerkat-wielding baddie.

The meerkats are funny. I'll wait until they release and just buy them. Judging by that picture, this kickstarter is going to be "Bones III: Furries, Freaks, and Ferrets!"

Wonder if there will be meerkat burrow terrain  think of those possibilities. I'd make a diorama of a primarch (probably ultramarines) trying to reach down to grab the meerkats in the hole while the others sneak around to kick him in his butt  .

Auldgrump: Yeah, but... before it was cool to be a meerkat. All these Manor and Compare the Meerkat.com guys are just jumping on the bandwagon. Meerkats like, totally sold out years ago, man. Artisanal platypi are the bleeding-edge zeitgeist these days.

I just hope Reaper realizes that Meekrats are another hulu-hoop type fad and are ready to jump off the Meekrat train before it drives, lemming like, off a cliff.
I'd hate to see them stuck with millions of unsalable meekrat blisters in a few years when Pandas are all the rage.

Meercats seem like an ideal little item to separate out and put on the bases of larger miniatures.
Kid_Kyoto,
I do hope they don't get stuck with extra Merecats, because Reaper melts down their extra figs. Imagine the sadness of millions of merecats being fed to the furnaces....

THIS is how nuclear escalation begins. One man trains a gerbil to bark, so his "friend" teaches his to bite on command, next thing you know little suzy is packing a automatic hamster launcher to school in her lunch sack, meerkats are herded and stock piled together in retaliation. Next thing we will see will be intercontinental ballistic Muskrats (ICBM). Oh the inhumanity  think of the children people, think of the children
