We've launched an exciting new project of our own! Introducing the Kickstarter app for iPhone!

Funded! This project successfully raised its funding goal on August 25, 2012.

We've gone to Plaid!! $525,000 Stretch Goal Achieved!

Update #25 · Aug 15, 2012 · 61 comments

Absolutely Incredible!  We've passed Ludicrous speed, and, at this point, even slowing down is too dangerous!

We're now ready to launch an entire new line of Bones Miniatures – Chronoscope Bones!

We'll begin by awarding Vampire Level pledge backers 1 of each of these 10 fine Chronoscope miniatures! Cowboys, Sci-fi soldiers, Steampunk, Modern, and a cybernetic gorilla! Who doesn’t need a cybernetic Gorilla?


Additionally, most backers will receive One Mister Bones figure - Shipments being sent in March, when we fulfill the Bones portion of your pledge, will receive a Mister Bones. That's all shipments, but it's also only one Mister Bones. Additional Mister Bones will be $1.

And Undertaker and Vampire Level pledges may receive this colossal Undead Giant, guardian of the crypt, by increasing their pledge by only $10! As with other Optional rewards, you may do this more than once!

We're thrilled to present some more plus-size monsters for you fantasy fans. These three monsters from classic fantasy, horror, and fiction will be available to all Vampire and Undertaker Pledge backers for only $10.

And then there's the freebie – once this goal is met, these 6 IMEF Marine miniatures will be added to your Vampire level pledge, bringing you up to 133 miniatures!

And now here's some more free fantasy miniatures, added directly to your Vampire or Undertaker Level pledge – and it's 4 great devils! A Marilith, and three vile Hellborn, a rogue, a fighter, and a mage, added to your Vampire or Undertaker Level rewards when we reach this goal! That's now 137 miniatures!

And for you Chronoscope fans – How about your very first DRAGON? The beautiful and dangerous Clockwork Dragon will be sculpted to be about the same size as Deathsleet – 7 inches high, almost a foot long nose to tail, and with massive wings! Concept and design by Talin, this bad boy is going to be massive – and awesome! Just increase your Vampire or Undertaker pledges by $15, and he's yours!

Stay tuned, Boneheads, because we're just entering the final ten days of this, and it's about to catch fire!

Whether you’re into Wargames, Boardgames, or RPG's, we've got you covered! But now we need to make sure that everybody knows about us! While we're shipping these flyers everywhere we can, we know you'd like to help, too! So download this PDF, e-mail it to your friends, print it out and tack it up in your Game Store, and get your store to support us, so that we can get these fine products out there for everyone to enjoy!

http://www.reapermini.com/misc/KS_flyer.pdf

But in order to help us get these amazing rewards made, and available for sale at every game store in the world – we need your help!

So download these, add them to signature files on Forums, or as header graphics for blogs to help spread the word! Change your avatar to the square one on kickstarter or other sites, and get people talking! (if you want help on how to change your avatar, send us a message, and we'll tell you how!)

The more people that help us create these figures, the more figures we can make for you!

      Lee, that is exactly my point. I'm trying to pimp the kickstarter but each time I do I have to remember that each new chronoscope stretch goal is one that I don't get. It's frustrating. Part of the reason I did the undertaker level is the 4x29 of the first setting of the Bones models... If I get the vampire tier then I'm missing those models... but each new stretch goal makes me think it works better that way. Well, still got a couple days to choose.

      @reaper
      now see, that's a bit of a problem... I still cannot quite get a feel for the size of those (probably my fault).
      is there a picture of either of those with just a simple scale in either inches or cm right next to it somewhere? I notice that for a lot of the human-sized figs it's pretty damn well indicated in the product photo's.

      I'll buy it either way, but I just can't quite form a picture of how biggish they are :)

      Not that I'm complaining, because I know I'm getting a clockwork dragon, but why is deathsleet 10 dollars and the clockwork dragon 15 dollars? I mean... they're the same size right?

      Creator Eliazar de la Tierra on August 16, 2012

      Brian, I would not worry too much. The currently most funded board game (Sedition Wars), really went crazy towards the end, AND had a lot less backers per day/pledged money per day than this one has currently. So as long as we keep up the pace, we should still be able to get some more goodies ;)

      Creator Brian on August 16, 2012

      I'm a little nervous that these stretch goals are getting farther and father apart. It looks like there might be an additional stretch goal map but will we hit it with the increased amount between the stretch goals? I'm greedy, I know - I want everything! LoL

    9. Missing_small

      Creator Lee Bruder on August 16, 2012

      @Reaper, I guess the retail packaging makes quite a bit of difference, for some places at least. Its mostly that for every stretch goal added 3xVampires would get 3 of each of the stretch goals to 2 for Undertaker. Which would be made up for by Undertaker getting 4x of the original 59 models, whereas the Vampire option would "only" gets 3 of many of them. Except that with the Undead Horde and Dungeon Attack the vampire option gets more of a few of those. And for every stretch goal reached the vampire option would get 3 models to the Undertakers 2, and we're already at 52 of those stretch goal models, (and 11 of which aren't included in the base undertaker option) with another 10 highly likely to be added in the next day or two (6 of them not going to Undertaker). But of course all of the other add-ons are the same price either way.

      Its all a good deal for sure, but it just seems with every passing stretch goal the multiple Vampire option comes out better and better.

      Since he hasn't been sculpted yet, we don't know for sure, but we are shooting for Ebonwrath and Deathsleet size.

      I second the question on the measurements of the Clockwork.
      Does the 7" height include the wings.
      Im thinking not, just wanted to confirm.

      Creator Scott Ferguson on August 15, 2012

      Cool, like I said it's not a problem for me. Whatever saves you folks on money for packaging is a bonus. Plus, I'd think shipping us Vampires each over 100 minis in retail packaging would require even larger shipping packages, which increases shipping costs.

      Plus, it's like a bonus mini crate. :D

    23. Image.small

      Creator Darsc Zacal on August 15, 2012

      @Bolognesus. No. It makes sense for them to be packed loose to nonretailer backers. It's just that over the course of the comments a lot of folks have asked for confirmation one way or another and Reaper has yet to do so. As I recall from the last discussion, a large Bones box with everying inside was the leading possibility.

    24. Badeendpiraat.small

      Creator Bolognesus on August 15, 2012

      @darsc: at this price point, are you surprised?I'd rather have them spen all that time/money on more awesomeness :)
      @reaper the description says 7" tall, 12" head to tail.
      In the concept it looks taller than it's long. Is that 12" measured along the tail? 7" is to the wingtips right, not the head? (actually 7" to the head, wings above that... I DM for players that size at times xD smaller would be better for me, haha)

    25. Imag0210-1.small

      @Reaper. Regarding your comment above about Undertaker level.
      "And it's the only way a shop can get things packaged for resale."
      Does that mean a final decision has been made about shipping the Bones mini's loose to the rest of us?
      .
      Just curious cause I know there was a lot of discussion about it in the comments section, but I don't recall seeing a definitive statement made about it by Reaper.

    27. Imag0210-1.small

      Creator Scott Ferguson on August 15, 2012

      @Reaper, so all the Vampire bones will come loose? Not that I have a problem with it, it'll save you guys a bunch of money on packaging.

      @Lee Bruder:
      " I also did the undertaker but it just doesn't seem like a great option anymore even for a shop."

      It still a great deal for a shop and will continue to improve. And it's the only way a shop can get things packaged for resale. The undertaker is only missing the Chronoscope stretch goals. They can also get all of the buy-ins they want too.

      Creator Jordan Peacock on August 15, 2012

      Haw! Okay, I'm going to boost my pledge to account for the clockwork dragon, on faith that we'll pass this goal before the Kickstarter ends. I can't pass this one up! It makes me wish that the wings would somehow be available as separate parts in the Boneyard; those would be great for steampunk flying contraptions (i.e., ornithopters). Either that, or I could just get an extra dragon, give it some sort of rocket-boosters, etc., in place of its wings, and then re-purpose the wings for an ornithopter project. Beautiful design!

      Creator Timeless (Dwarven Forge/Hirst Arts fan) on August 15, 2012

      Ok so you really need to get at least 10 clockwork dragons so you can have two of each metal type as guardians for drawbridges, doorways, dungeon chasms, cavern entrances, dwarven holds, skyscrapers ect... The colors would be gold, copper, silver, chrome, and battleworn black with gunmetal silver battlescars.

      Ok I think I have it covered with the number of clockwork dragons I need to order now. What do you guys think!

      Oh noes...I almost forgot about metallic green!!!! eek!

    45. Missing_small

      Creator Lee Bruder on August 15, 2012

      Yeah, I'm thinking the same thing Matthew. I also did the undertaker but it just doesn't seem like a great option anymore even for a shop. Getting 3x vampires gets you more of all the stretch goal models (which is currently 40 models), as well as the chronoscope and marines (they'll be unlocked for sure...). And I'm pretty sure you'll end up with more of the Dungeon Attack and Undead Horde models that way too and both of those have have maybe half of the 19 models the undertaker gets that the vampire didn't start with.

      Its all great deals, but it just doesn't seem like the Undertaker has scaled up nearly as much as the Vampire has.

    46. Reaper_miniatures_logo%20copy.small

      Creator Reaper Miniatures on August 15, 2012

      @Matthew Allen: Undertaker is only excluded from Chronoscope Bones Stretch Goals - NOT all future stretch goals. You'll note Undertaker gets "Bedevilled".

    47. Reaper_miniatures_logo%20copy.small

      Creator Reaper Miniatures on August 15, 2012

      Undertaker will not get any no-charge Chronoscope stretch goals.

    48. Missing_small

      Creator Matthew Allen on August 15, 2012

      With all these extra free models just for Vampire I'm starting to wonder if I should just cancel my undertaker tier and get two vampire tiers and use the extra money to buy the specific models I want from the old 29 already existing bones models. At this rate I'll end up with far more minis than if I stick with just undertaker.

      I'm hoping that excluding undertaker from the new minis stops with this last stretch goal.
