Reaper Miniatures has started a new Kickstarter to get the Bones line of plastic (PVC) miniatures cranking.


A $60 pledge gets you one of each of the above - with more being added as Stretch Goals are passed.

They are currently about $100 from their first goal, being funded is not much of a question now. A bit more than halfway to their first Stretch Goal of $50,000.

I don't know if I have mentioned the Bones figures here much, but they are, well, cheap! A purple worm sells for just under $3 US. Six kobolds or goblins run about the same.

For a while Reaper has been making noises about the price of tin becoming unsustainable for miniatures - the Bones line is part of their response to that.

All in all, I am quite happy with the Bones miniatures, and will be watching this with interest.

*EDIT* Oh, dear.... one of the add on pledges is a figure of Sophie the Succubus on motorcycle. For three dollars more she forgets to wear clothes.... Oy! The sad thing is that I would rather she be wearing more clothes - leather jacket, jeans, and stompy boots instead of the short shorts that she is wearing (if she is wearing anything at all....)

The Auld Grump

Hoo boy, that's a dangerous one for me, thankfully it isn't funded until after another payday Smiley

I don't own any of the Bones line of mini's and I actually hadn't heard about them until now. I knew about Reapers pre-painted mini's but not these. I may just have to pledge on this, it's an awesome deal for the number of minis you get. Looks like one of the stretch goals may even be some paints.

On a more positive note, I have to reconcile my check book, because the $40 level on those Dwarven Adventures is really tempting. Smiley

Very much so! I'm actually debating between that and the $66 option, for double the mini's.

I am actually kind of glad that I stumble upon this, I used to collect and paint Warmachine/Hordes miniatures but haven't actually picked up a brush in some time and I have piles of them collecting dust on shelves Sad . Seeing these dwarves has given me a little bit of the itch to paint once again.

Besides where else am I going to find a mini for a Dwarf Bard?

I just pledged the $66 level....



I have... hopes. Smiley

Sculpting on the greens has begun, with 66 hours to go.

The Auld Grump, hi ho!

Awesome!

I'm pledged at the $98 level + $30 for a T-shirt and two trolls.

Well, I for one have been playing Diablo 3 happily since the day after launch (CE didn't get here until then) and am enjoying it very much.

I will also be playing Torchlight II, I played the first one for some time, never beat it though... I pre-ordered on Steam and gifted my extra copy to a friend of mine's kids. One thing TL2 will have over the D3 at this point though is that I will be able to play it with my dad, his computer can't run D3.

That and I really want to play an Engineer...

I can't wait for this game! Still can't decide what class I will make first...
monk is a dps machine, barbarian is a tank, and i do not have enough experience with the other classes yet.

Are you in the Beta?

I have only been going by the information on the website. I've been torn between Wizard/Monk, followed by Barbarian/Witch Doctor, with Demon Hunter last. Don't get me wrong, all of the classes look cool, this is just based on my general playstyle and what I can gather from the website.

Prizes aren't necessarily the typical magic sword or armor either. They could be something big, like a large magical cauldron, wagon, or boat even; items that players may not want to take with them (or could not in some cases). They may also be in possession of a highly sought after item but don't want to take it out adventuring so they lock it up to keep it safe in the vault.

You may want to grab the First Printing Errata, it does show that the Katana loses AP 4 and gains keen 4 and the shurikens damage was changed to lethal. Which matches the second printing.

This is among numerous other changes.

Hmmm...

I had asked a similar question some time ago about this same thing and Alex responded with a yes.

Currently Windows XP Pro with the most recent updates, using Adobe Reader 10.1.1

I'll give it a try again on my home computer later tonight.

EDIT: No go there either. Windows 7 64bit, using Adobe Reader 10.1.1

The only difference I see between the variant sheets and the the basic sheets is that the variant ones have Commenting and Signing as 'Not Allowed'. Not sure if that would affect anything, I am not really PDF savy.

I feel like I am being naggy and nitpicky Embarrassed but...

The new form-fillable variant sheets that have been uploaded do not allow for saving (I am using Adobe Reader). I tried both the color and B&W ones.

The 'Character Abilities' sheet, the printer friendly B&W one. The fillable part works great, however it does not allow you to save like the other sheets do. It's the one Arceom posted.

Awesome! The fixed sheet works (saving and all that) as far as I can tell.

The fillable abilities list doesn't allow saving however Sad

EDIT: The 'Combat Actions' is blank on the fixed sheet.

I noticed an error on the Variant sheets, the abilitiy scores listed for Ride and Search are incorrect. Not sure if there is any way this could be fixed.
