				<title>&quot;Necronomicon: Cthulhu Mythos&quot; Kickstarter from Impact Miniatures</title>
				<description><![CDATA[ Another kickstarter, Yay  <img src="/s/i/a/6d3c0a908a3861135dfaebde91c0ecf6.gif" border="0"> <br /> <br /> This one is focused on the cthulhu mythos, obvious from the title I suppose  <img src="/s/i/a/39ea8e0dbfb45dcc6b802cd0e198dba3.gif" border="0"> <br /> <br /> <a href="http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/674003445/necronomicon-cthulhu-mythos-a-new-miniatures-line?ref=category" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/674003445/necronomicon-cthulhu-mythos-a-new-miniatures-line?ref=category</a><br /> <br /> <a href="http://www.impactminiatures.net/" target="_new" rel="nofollow">Impact Miniatures' site </a><br /> <br /> <blockquote class="uncited"><div>The Story<br /> <br /> Impact! Miniatures has traditionally produced fantasy sports miniatures and we are looking to widen our range.  We also have a program to help amateur sculptors build a portfolio, have their works produced and receive payments based upon how successful their miniatures sell.  When we were approached by a talented, amateur sculptor from Spain with these miniatures we knew we had to work to get them produced and into the community's hands!  The cost of producing a full range, rather than just a miniature or two here and there, is daunting and so we've come the community looking for some help.  We're seeking some capital to help defer the costs of master moulding, production moulding and having them cast up.  If these are successful, the sculptor has 15 MORE miniatures he'd like to make including Hydra, Cthonian, Mi-Go, Azathoth, Tsathoggua, Yig, Yith and more!<br /> STRETCH REWARD #1 - $6000<br /> <br /> Great to be funded.  Stretch Reward #1 is a free miniature to everyone who has pledged $100 or more.  If we reach $6000, all pledges over $100 will be able to add one of the 3 figures in the image below (all not originally part of this KickStarter) for free to their backer reward.  Note: if you would like to add one of these 3 figures to your reward and are pledging less then $100 for the KickStarter (or want to get more than the one free mini for $100 or more), all 3 miniatures would be considered part of Group #1 for adding them to your pledge.<br /> The Rewards<br /> <br /> After looking at the various sizes of the miniatures we decided to offer them in four "bands" which are based on cost of production and future MSRP.  These costs include the weight of the metal and the number of pieces the miniature is made of.  We also added two other reward levels for those that would like the package set of <span class="glossaryitem" onmouseover='gp(661);'>HP</span> Lovecraft and Cthulhu and for backers that would just like one of each miniature.  All reward levels include the price of worldwide shipping. <br /> How to Determine Your Pledge Total<br /> <br /> Pledge for any level that sounds good to you. You can then add additional figures to your pledge from any of the 15 below.  Just add in an amount for the Group the figures is in (no extra shipping is needed to be added for any add-on miniatures!)<br /> <br /> Group #1:  $5 each<br /> <br /> Group #2:  $8 each<br /> <br /> Group #3:  $12 each<br /> <br /> Group #4:  $18 each<br /> <br />  For example, if you want one miniature from Group #2 and Group #4, you would pledge $30 at either the OUTER THINGS or GREAT OLD ONES level. As another example, assume you want one miniature from Group #1, two from Group #3 and one from Group #4.  You would pledge $51 at any of the three levels that includes one the figures you want (for example at the OUTER THINGS it would be the $16 level + $5 for Group #1 + $12 for an extra Group #2 figure + $18 for the Group #4 level). <br /> Group #1: Lesser Beings (click for larger images)<br /> <br /> <div style="margin-top:5px; margin-bottom:10px;">

He also has optional eye stalks that are not pictured.  “Yog-Sothoth knows the gate. Yog-Sothoth is the gate. Yog-Sothoth is the key and guardian of the gate. Past, present, future, all are one in Yog-Sothoth. He knows where the Old Ones broke through of old, and where They shall break through again.

Trapped forever!"<br /> Group #4: Great Old Ones<br /> <br /> Shub-Niggurath - roughly 40mm to the shoulders, 2.67 oz weight.

Multiple pieces. “Nobody said the ocean was a safe place. There are … things down there, things that slide effortlessly through the arctic chill and lightless void. Creatures that wait for their time, the time of flood — the time of Dagon.”<br /> <br /> Cthulhu - roughly 42mm to the eyes, 3.84 oz weight.  Six pieces.  “That is not dead which can eternal lie. And with strange eons even death may die.”  Ph'nglui mglw'nafh Cthulhu R'lyeh wgah'nagl fhtagn

				<description><![CDATA[ It's a shame that they are fantasy football miniatures, otherwise I would be interested in some of them (though some look pretty badly, especially Lovecraft).]]></description>
