Your likeness as one of our creatures. Send a picture and one of our zombies, orcs, etc. (any humanoid creature that hasn't been painted and not already requested) will look like you!

* I've been a gamer ever since 4th grade, 20-something years ago, and have written a few RPG articles.
* I'm also a programmer. I created and continue to update the game/fantasy map software programs "Hexographer" and "Dungeonographer" among numerous other projects.
Sorry Robin. The new reward on the other project gives a much larger number of miniatures, and it will likely have a wider selection as well.
Well, that was rather disappointing. I really liked the idea of the plastic stock. This is what made this project unique.
Thanks Kevin! I really think the new one will succeed.
Sad to see this cancelled. Looking forward to seeing the stock art idea take off and provide a good alternative.
Andrew: Not quite. It is $.50 extra per card. You can see which creatures are on which card on the project's main page. For example if it is a card of small creatures, like card #1 you'll get 4 bats & 4 beetles for $.50. If you want Orcs, you'll want card #20 which has 4 of them. If the creatures are large you'll get 2. And if they are huge in size, you'll get just one. Sometimes you'll get a creature you don't want. For example if you want the large griffon, you'll also get the cyclops. But I've tried to put similar creatures on the same card.
Also note that these assignments for which creatures are on which card are not final, but they should be close.
Question: Is the a la carte price for any size miniature?
Kevin: Thanks for the link. I'll see what their bulk prices are and how many are required.
Halfway there. These will be nice. No more, "The carrion crawler, elemental, and the lion are all ogres; the two minataurs are giants."
After completing the survey and asking for clear bases, I thought I'd provide at least one source for the clear bases!
I've purchased about a hundred of these bases already, and they're great for paper figures!

Thanks! (I would have messaged you, but I couldn't easily match up your Id with your name.)
posted about the kickstarter at tenkarstavern.com a few minutes ago
Good luck! I bought the Pathfinder Beginners Box yesterday on the back of Nykki's review and he fact I saw another comment saying they had played it with a 3 yr old. Hoping the Kickstarter makes it as I don't want to risk my minis in the hands of small children.
Thanks so much for the mention Matt & Nykki!
Little plug for the kickstarter at http://geekthis.blogspot.com/2012/01/gaming-with-kids-pathfinder-beginner.html -- I'm definitely excited about Moar Portable Minis.
Also: Dice are here and awesome.
The skeletons were miscategorized. I've fixed it, so now they are there. The dice are availabale now at www.dungeonmorphs.com
And those dice look cool. Wish I'd been on Kickstarter when you did that project.
No skeletons listed in your pack of undead mediums?
Dice arrived. Mail to the office is always slow. They look great.
After the excellent quality of the DungeonMorph Dice, this was a no-brainer!
@ Stan - another thing about metal miniatures - the paint may come off easy, but that is if you have the time and talent to paint them in the first place! :)
If this succeeds, I'd definitely be interested in follow-on projects for sci-fi stand-ins and modern stand-ins.
Thanks for the support everyone!
Please do post about it wherever you're a regular and it is appropriate.
Matt: I'll try to post on that thread later today.
Kevin: Hope you get them soon. If you get anxious, I can look up the address where I sent them.
Stan: Good points, I'll add some of them to the main project page.
David: I think my bugbear is slated for the second set (if we get there), so I hope we get there. (I know you were just giving an example.)
The random plastic packs seem to be good for getting a selection for PCs, but when it comes to monsters we just end up using the four Gricks we have to represent a group of four medium sized creatures unless it's Orcs we need. It will be nice to have at least an accurate picture of the monster to put on the table rather than everyone keeping on asking what the bugbear is representing.
Don't forget that metal minis don't travel well because they :
1. are heavy
2. take up quite a bit of space
3. have their paint rub off easily.
When I DM some place other than my house, metal doesn't work for more than a few key pieces. Even plastic minis are bulky. I've tried several alternatives and this should beat them all.
these are going to be so cool!
Waiting for my Dungeonmorph Dice to arrive still. Suspect they are being forward from old place to new place, and will see them late this week. This one looks as great as the Dice.
I created a thread on RPGgeek and added this to the Kickstarter Geek List. I received my Dungeonmorph Dice today, and they are fantastic. I wanted to help spread the word about these. Another great idea, Joe!
