If I had one complaint about Fireforge it would be their communication. I think they are a stand up company but sometimes dont communicate when they should and sometimes the stuff they do communicate comes off wrong. But I havent had any issues with the stuff they produce being bad, or with them not doing something they promised.

Finally got shipping notice on my order. Last update says that there are "unforseen delays" on shipping and they are about 50% delivered.

Got my order today. Only had a chance to assemble 1 of the resin heroes and the free sprue (I got Samurai shooters). It came with 7 legs but only 6 torsos... so made a wizard with some Frost grave parts.

The plastic models are great. Super happy so far.

Ooh I missed the KS for these. Any clue when they will be available for retail?

No idea about US but in my country retailers already have all kits (could be from KS retail deal though).

Very clever kitbash on the Wizard.

I got my guys a while back, I had assumed this was all fulfilled. But Fireforge posted an update so I figured for this thread to be fair I should post it.

Hello everyone,

Our work in delivering compliance is progressing.

We have currently shipped 80% of orders and more will be shipped by the end of the month.

We are not proceeding at the speed we had expected due to other difficulties that have arisen in the last month, especially further customs delays due to Brexit for the supply of raw materials which, in addition to slowing down deliveries of rewards, have also slowed down our operations business in general.

In addition, difficulties arose due to the delivery of a load of damaged books which required a new reprint to continue sending them.

At the same time we are continuing to follow some reports (fortunately a minority) on some shipments which appear to have been delivered but of which the customer has no trace.

Our support will continue to be total in these situations even years after the campaign, so rest assured that we will not abandon you.

As always, we are sorry for the difficulties but we are working to resolve any problems with as little inconvenience as possible.

I will say again. I love the figures, It is top quality work they do. But comms arent great. There are a lot of angry people in the comments, mostly due to the lack of communication.
