So, i was reading up on my TGG threads and a thought occurred tome. wow I have alot of unsent kickstarters out there. I wonder how many miniatures I'm gonna be getting out of all my kickstarters total

I did the math and the research...and...I'm gonna end up with over 1300 hundred miniatures

Omg how did this happen??.....if I painted a miniature a day it would take me 3 and a half years to paint them all...and there's no way I a paint a miniature a day...it is more like a mini a week...which equals.....28 YEARS!!!!

And this doesn't include the truckload I already own...Holy crap

Has anyone else come to this point in their lives? Am I the only one with this problem?

You're not alone......

(although tend to think KS just delivers a big box of minis all at once, rather than multiple smaller purchases done via normal shopping)

I'm less a KS addict and more of a minis addict, which has lead to some large KS backing.

I have somewhere in the realm of probably a thousand models "due" by the end of the year. This is in addition to the few thousand I already have (the GW stuff I've inventoried, itself a subset of my GW stuff, is about 3400 models) and is exacerbated by my horrifically sporadic painting.

So you're not alone, but I did decide to be far more selective in my KS activity; backing a KS for tomorrow didn't stop me from getting stuff today and that just seems destined to result in tragedy...

OK that's a good call, I'm a mini addict and KS is where I get alot of them.

I'm good about not buying short term.....except for Craigslist list.....damn you Craigslist. I respect your tragedy sir I have some of my own

Super Dungeon Explore is going to be my last one.

KS has come to the point where I'm not much of a fan, anymore.

There are some great projects out there, but there comes a point when you get too many things going, and the "Project" is banking more on forgetful, then fulfillment.

I got to that point without kickstarters.

I backed the last SDE as well and i think I'm going to put a block on the KS page to keep me form going there.

Though..I might keep an eye out rof the next raging heroes thing...if they ever actually fulfill there current one :(
