I'm still lukewarm on this, but hopefully I'll be more interested when it finally ships in a couple years. Going in for $305 for the core set + X-men core set, the artist special editions and the Sentinels. Giant sentinels will always have a special place in my heart because of the 90s cartoon. Only thing I'm debating still adding is the Guardians set, kinda sad that the movie characters are KS exclusives
I've tried my best to stay away from this campaign, but Sentinels and some of the bonus exclusives are really making me question my willpower.
I figure I'll put in for a buck and see how I feel later on about this.
Outside of a few personal favorites I would have liked to see (Kang, Annihilus, and Ultron) , it's a good mix of iconic heroes and villains.
Poorly lit photos of my ever- growing collection of completely unrelated models!
There are some notable omissions I was also hoping for Ghost Spider and Ultron I wonder if it was licensing or are they saving some stuff for a potential 2nd season at some point.
They still have that Army of the Dead version to do as well - no word since the announcement. But what we really need is pirates!
Finished at just over $9 million 4th highest tabletop game KS.

I was thinking the same thing. It's a real pity.
Unless this is pulling directly from the Movies or Video Games I don't see how Sony would be involved at all. They don't own spider-man.
I was just searching through to see if anyone gave the answer.
Sony has the film rights, and separately the video game rights, two different deals.
So unless the video game rights included use in all games including tabletop, then it wouldn’t involve them.
And he’s in the mini game anyway. I guess it’s just for some reason specifically the zombiefied version they don’t want being out there..
I'm hoping that being as it's such a Big thing (and there's still pledge manager money to come in), that there will be a good amount of fanmade stuff.
How have the previous Zombicides done for fanmade things?
More missions and new characters - just needs a couple of people with mad STL skills, there are obviously a lot of very talented people out there who can knock up new character cards.

On a seperate note, my Massive Darkness 2 pledge arrived today, it's a seriously large amount of stuff! Not really had a chance to properly look at it, mine seems in pretty good nick with only a couple of bits come unglued rather than some of the breakages others have reported. Very heavy, considering I only got the basic game, a lot of cardboard stuff I think in the extra boxes.
Not had a proper look at it, but some of the minis look great, some look a bit meh. Some look great but then have slightly lazy bits on them (the boatman looks fantastic, but then the inside of the boat looks pretty poor, which is odd). I'll have to properly look through it all when I get time after work tomorrow, but I love getting these huge boxes full of stuff turn up, it's the adult version of christmas as I've usually pretty much forgotten half the stuff that's arriving

There's also a gallery of all the survivor models and cards, including the KS exclusives plus a lot of fan made stuff on BGG and the facebook groups: missions, campaigns, photoshop templates to make new characters, enemies and equipment cards etc. I just got into Black Plague/Green Horde and have been pleasantly surprised by all the extras people have made
Speaking of Thundercats Asmodee put the boxes up briefly before Christmas and then removed them they are Black Plague Branded rather than classic CAD $34.99
Box1 - Lion-O, Cheetara, Snarf and Slithe
Box2 - Tygra, Panthro, Wilykit, Wilykat and Jackalman
Box3 - Mumm-Ra necromancer and abomination

I totally missed that one! OMG they even got the 2011 Lion-O in there too!
His only appearance was to crap on critics of the show. Strangely, shortly afterwards it was cancelled. Weird... Oh well... I'm sure the new version and its artistic take on the beloved characters will be a hit with licensees like CMON for years to come.

As someone who doesn't place Zombicide but loves Thundercats, are these self contained or do I need a bunch of the other Zombicide sets to make use of them?

A copy of Zombicide Black Plague is required they are not a stand alone product - unless all you want is the minis.

Thats a real shame. One of the standouts from when I was a kid in the 1980s was the Safari Joe episode where he says "Safari Joe does it again!"...and they went there! The crazy sonfabeeches actually did it!
...by all rights this shouldn't be a thing, but damn that made my childhood!
But bless, getting back on track...I'm not familar with Zombicide, but Mumm-Ra is too good to pass up on and the rest of the models are fantastic too.
Casual gaming, mostly solo-coop these days.

It's been awhile since I looked at the CMON Investor reports but the latest report lists preliminary profits for 2021 of not more than $1 million after a loss of $4.9 million in 2020
