Couple of flame thrower sentry guns unlocked. Next goal is the box.

**Mysterio**

Not much of a needle mover there.

Hopefully with 17 hours to go, and only being $13K from unlocking the...box...they can reveal something a little more compelling and attractive!

**Col Hammer**

The end boss... (part of an add on, not a SG)

Automatically Appended Next Post:
And the SG storage box is revealed

I wonder if they'll do some crazy giant home stretch thing to fight, or we'll just end up with a boring (but sorely needed) stretch goal box to hold all this stuff.

We just did the boring but sorely needed SG box

**PsychoticStorm**

That pinup should have been a miniature....

**Col Hammer**

And maybe it will be a miniature. There is still time left...

**highlord tamburlaine**

Happy to take this beauty over another hero though!

Plus with the way things are worded and the fact that the next goal is another Nazi unit makes me think this thing hasn't even reached its final form..

**Binabik15**

Looks very Resident Evil-ish.

I'll have to stay at 1$ but now I'll upgrade in the PM for sure. FT: Zero, Dust, this, damn, I'm going to need a lot of uniform grey. Probably airbrush and sponge weathering for all the nazi armour ans call it a day. Well, and a highlight. And some washes. And...and that is why all my stuff is unpainted.

**highlord tamburlaine**

And here's his stage two form unlocked already.

Plus a last minute goal got tossed in just to be on the safe side.

Definitely a lot of minis for your money here. Less than a buck per figure at this point.

Now if Mythic would just start getting their previously kickstarted games out into the wild, I wouldn't feel bad about going all in on this...

**frankelee**

Well this campaign closed off nicely for Mythic, good to see them have another successful campaign. I would have thought a Weird War 2 dungeon crawler was exactly what I wanted, but for some reason it just isn't calling to me. Paradoxically my huge Dust collection may make me feel like I've got enough, rather than making me want to buy more. Anyways, I just wanted to say I love to see Mythic and Monolith continue to do well, and not just leave KS to CMON's bored, uncreative games of increasingly poor value.

They showed the digital sculpt in the end of campaign thank you post so likely it will either be included for free in the pledge manager or available for a small fee.

**grefven**

They obviously expected the KS to reach higher, so I hope they will make whatever stuff they had planned available in the pledge manager.

**PsychoticStorm**

Indeed, teased without actual information, its a wait and see.

**highlord tamburlaine**

I would not be adverse to even more Naz technological monstrosities and scientific atrocities rearing their ugly mugs up in the pledge manager.

**Aeneades**

They have also confirmed in a Kickstarter live video that a season 2 is planned.

**Col Hammer**

Yesterday was Finlands independence day. We had a bunch of people marching the streets carrying 3 Nazi flags...

I assume it had something to do with advertising Reichbusters?

**OrlandotheTechnicoloured**

If you watched the Beasts of War stuff before the KS started they talked about having loads of sculpts/ideas done, far more than would go into the (one) KS, hence the idea of 'seasons'

so it's hard to tell if they expected more (i'm sure they hoped for more, but who wouldn't hope)

there was also a bit of a kick back in the comments when they revealed Paolo Parente was involved in the box art (before it was shown) in case he 'objectified' women on it, so it might well be they decided not to run with this one in the short term at least to minimise any further grief on those lines

even

though she'd not anything like these dust 'babes'

**PsychoticStorm**

It is a 3D model of the box art who is supposed to be a pinup from the airplane that carries the reichbusters, never announced to be a model, but sensibly Mythic understood people would want the pinup as a mini and sculpted it.

Now we will just wait and see how it will be given, add on? stretch goal unlock? we will see.

Seriously I doubt there is significant concern about "objectification" in the consumers market.

Well if it was their conscious choice and not some excuse to make it a payable add on even for the "all in" pledges, bad for them, its a really slippery slope of logic to have and follow.

If it is an excuse to make it a payable add on because of XYZ reasons, like funding or royalty ectr, nothing to see then really.

**Mysterio**

You can't really blame them as it is rather cold outside these days!

**ced1106**

We can beat the SS, but not the SJW.

I don't see negative comments about pin-ups on a boutique miniatures KS in the Reaper forums (which happen to have a higher proportion of women compared to the boardgame ones), but once you show some cleavage or tease on a boardgame or other less boutique KS, hoo-boy. Even the Reaper Bones KS, which have a large audience than most miniature KS, had criticism for certain female miniatures.

**redben**

The stretch goal box cover art was never intended to be sculpted. We heard the requests for it and quickly put something together which is what was shown off at the end of the KS. We've not yet made any decisions on how we'll make it available.

**PsychoticStorm**

That was a correct response in my opinion, there is demand why not supply it.

**redben**

We're giving away the Sarge miniature painted by the Seb Lavinge. Check out the pledge manager interview with Beasts of War on The Weekender to find out to win it.

**PsychoticStorm**

Any chance of giving preview of the artbook?

Also not that much of a fun for the alternative (and far better) Red Hawk bundled with a paint line I am not collecting.

**His Master's Voice**

Yeah, 35 bucks for a mini, even one that good, is a bit steep.

**kestral**

Lots of great stuff - especially a Gurkha. They've checked just about every box for me. Sadly, no room for another game right now.

**Mr Morden**

Got my KS boxes today and thought people might be intersted in a few comparison shots

Models are nice - cool designs and good for other stuff or maybe some fun 40k proxies

let me know if you want any more!
