About this project
Reaper Miniatures Bones: An Evolution Of Gaming Miniatures
$3,429,235
Scroll all the way down for the FAQ! It explains how to pledge for multiple Levels, multiple Options, and more!
Why are we doing this?
Since the launch of Bones in March, a full third of the figures we ship are Bones Gaming Miniatures. We have 8 pages of Bones suggestions going in our forum. It's clear that you, our fans, want more of these Bones figures. And why not? They're awesome sculpts at a terrific price! What's not to love?
As it turns out, they're also really expensive to produce. The mold costs alone are astronomical. In order to grow this line, we can do it slow and steady over the next several years, or we can defer to you guys and launch a bunch of new ones as soon as possible.
By the end of the year, we anticipate having 30 products in the Bones line. What this Kickstarter will do is at least double the Bones line to 60 total models: character models, new sculpts, big monsters, the sky's pretty much the limit.
All we need to kickstart this thing is your support.
What Do I Get For Supporting You?
We have a number of opportunities available for our supporters.
These include, but are not limited to, various apparel items, a chance to receive each of the new 30 plastic models, a metal Kickstarter-exclusive Sophie model, Design-Your-Own-Miniature packages, not to mention some of the most valuable Crown Jewel one-of-a-kind items from the Reaper archives. (And we even have some incredible stretch goals in mind – we remain ever optimistic!)
Something for everyone who loves miniature gaming.
What Are Bones Gaming Miniatures?
What?! You're a gamer, right? Have you been living under a rock?

STRETCH GOALS
He's 7 inches from tabletop to wingtip, 7.5 inches tail to nose, and has a 12 inch wingspan!
They're each about 2.75" from tabletop to the tops of their heads.
This reward is open to Pledges of all levels.
As with our other rewards, there is no limit to how many of these you can receive. However, if you select 5 or more, additional shipping may apply.
NOTE: Skeleton and Zombie levels will need to Add $5 for International Shipping. That's $5 for one set, or $5 for both, and even $5 for multiple copies of one or both.
Like the paint rewards we just achieved, the "Orcpocalypse!" Set is NOW available to all pledge Levels! You'll get 20 Orcs, 4 copies each of the 5 models shown.
NOTE: Skeleton and Zombie levels will need to Add $5 for International Shipping. That's $5 for one set, or $5 for two, and even $5 for more than that! Shipping does not stack, so simply include the highest shipping value among all options and levels desired.
Everybody, at any level of support, can now have this hard plastic miniature carrying case by increasing your pledge by only $25. It comes with 6 pieces of foam, cut to fit over 100 miniatures! (Add +$5 Shipping for international pledges, unless your current level already pays more than $5 for shipping.) Outrider Hobbies designed the foam. Additional designs to fit this case, including designs that hold Reaper Master Series Paint, tools, or larger figures can be ordered through foamcorps.com
These figures won't be made in our usual Bones plastic, but a transparent orange!
Each Dragon is over 3" tall, and would count as Huge in the world's oldest Fantasy RPG.
Vampire and Undertaker level backers will receive these 4 "medium" and one "large" spectral haunt figures – made in translucent green plastic.
She's 7 inches tall! She's one of Sandra Garrity's finest sculpts, and she's only $10!
We're ready now to launch an entire new line of Bones Miniatures – Chronoscope Bones!
All Pledge Levels that are receiving a Bones or Case shipment will also receive One "Mister Bones" Bones miniature with their shipment, as our way of saying "Thank You!"
These 6 IMEF Marine miniatures are now included in your Vampire level pledge.
We're very excited to announce this one!
Hot on the heels of the unveil of Chronoscope Bones comes another Bones launch! Pathfinder Bones is coming! This will be our first Bones Licensed line, and everybody's very excited about it! We're starting out with Paizo's most popular monsters, the Goblins, and giving them to you Vampire and undertaker backers!
And that's not all! This one of pathfinder's most iconic images – the gorgeous Red Dragon, illustrated by Wayne Reynolds and sculpted by Julie Guthrie! Vampires and Undertakers, he's yours for just $10!
If you pledge for extra sets of these, be aware that each extra set includes all 2 of each, not one of each.
One of the strengths of the Pathfinder Miniatures line is the creative, evocative character designs. Their Iconic characters, representations of the class in the game, really stand out as not just illustrations, but living characters of their world. To that end, we introduce here 7 Pathfinder Iconics for the Pathfinder Bones miniatures line. With this goal, you will get Seelah, Damiel, Merisiel, Feiya, Valeros, Amiri, and Seoni! These 7 miniatures is now included in your Vampire or Undertaker Level pledge.
Our last big Pathfinder monster was the Iconic Red Dragon from the front cover of the Bestiary. The only way to outdo that is with the Iconic Jabberwock from Bestiary 2! To get one of these, simply increase your Vampire or Undertaker Level pledge by $10.
You’ll get Ezren the wizard, Kyra the cleric, Lem the bard, and Seltyiel the Magus!
This bad boy is 7 and one-half inches from nose to spiked tail, and his tallest head is 3 inches off the ground!
If you want extras, you don't have to buy equal numbers of both! You can get more Griffons for $4 each, and more Owlbears for $3 each!
We are going old school! Every Vampire or Undertaker Level pledge will receive Frog God Games pdf of Swords & Wizardry Complete Rules. Play the game the way it was meant to be played... Original edition rules, original edition feel. Put those miniatures to work in this award winning game.
Vampire and Undertaker backers will receive a free PDF copy of Matt Forbeck's (Author of Reaper's CAV:The Big Dance Novel)latest novel: Shotguns & Sorcery: Hard Times in Dragon City!
Kicktraq.com is a website that keeps daily charts and data on Kickstarter projects. Right now, the highest number they predict us being able to reach is $3,339,192. We should do better than that. So, right away, let's DREAM BIG!
And by BIG, I mean, the littlest reward miniatures yet! We're jumping in with both feet this afternoon asking to beat Kicktraq's projections, and offering up these 12 adorable familiars as a reward – in addition to the other 228 Miniatures already in Vampire – Bringing your total to 240 Miniatures!!!

We are dealing with overseas backers on a case-by-case basis for shipping charges. We cannot quote actual shipping at this time because we are expecting the no-charge add-ons to grow dramatically at this level. If you pledge the level at the $300.00, we will compute and bill for actual shipping via whatever method you desire after the close of the project.

Most of our existing miniatures lines are produced in metal, and many of the miniatures pictured here are drawn from those product lines. This Bones Kickstarter is designed to produce both existing and new miniatures in plastic. The models that are pictured in the Kickstarter are the models you will receive in Bones plastic.
-
Currently all Single Bones miniatures are priced between $1.99 and $2.99. Packs with multiple miniatures are between $3.49 and $ 5.49

Options are additional product you can receive by increasing the amount of your Vampire or Undertaker pledge by the option amount, unless otherwise stated.

If you are an international backer (excluding Canada) do not combine the shipping amounts of multiple levels or Options. Use the single highest shipping amount among your selections. Make sure you add the shipping amount to your pledge.
The international shipping charges in our Kickstarter program are designed for consumer-level shipments. International (excluding Canada) backers that select large quantities (5 or more) of a single Option or Pledge Level will need to add more shipping charges. If you would like more than four (4) of a single item, please add the shipping charge listed with the item(s) or $5 minimum.
Below are examples showing you how to add additional $10.00 Mythos Monster sets to your existing Vampire Pledge Level:
1-4 sets, no additional charge for shipping. [$125 + 10 +10 +10 +10 = $165]
5 sets, add $5.00 for shipping [$125 + 10 +10 +10 +10 +10 + 5 = $180]
6 sets, add $10.00 for shipping [$125 + 10 +10 +10 +10 +10 + 10 + 5 + 5 = $195]You will be responsible for any customs taxes, duties, and fees on your end. That is out of our control, and we will not mark any shipment in any way that is inconsistent with international law.
See the FAQ on the bottom of the home tab on our Kickstarter page for information about shipments and declaration of values so you can be prepared for their arrivals. We don't anticipate more than two shipments to you. If that changes, we will update the FAQ.
-
Use only the highest shipping amount listed among the pledges you selected.

These are the original sculptures used to make our products. If you get one of these Crown Jewels they are for your use and so you can brag about it only, with no commercial reproduction rights. You may not make molds and reproduce them even if it’s just to give copies away to your friends.
-
DYOM = Design Your Own Miniature. You will be able to design a miniature of your choice that will go in one of our white metal miniatures lines like Dark Heaven Legends or our Chronoscope. You will also receive 20 production copies of your design when it releases to the public. Obviously, no copyrighted designs. All designs subject to approval and become the property of Reaper Miniatures.

Sophie is Reaper Miniatures' mascot. We produce limited editions of Sophie models for special occasions. Sophie kick-starting her motorcycle is exclusive to backers only, so pledging in this Reaper Kickstarter project will be the only way to get this version of Sophie. This is NOT a Bones version.
-
We now have a Canada Only Pledge Level that will allow you to support us at this level.
-
Yes, simply make your pledge amount $103 and when you receive your survey, specify that you want the Urban Legend Sophie.
-
We will be happy to take you at your convenience, but please do not schedule this during ReaperCon or any Major National Holidays. Please contact us to make specific arrangements so we can be sure your bookings are correct.
-
We can’t mark a parcel coming from a business to a consumer as a gift or promotional materials with no value, so we must declare a value.
We will determine the customs declaration value of your shipment based on the Pledge Level(s) you chose in your backer survey. We will use the single highest pledge level you have chosen as your customs value.
As examples: if you want two Vampire Levels your receipt will show $100 as that is your single highest Pledge Level. If you are a Ghast Level and added paint and Orcs your receipt will show $15.00.Note regarding Skeleton and Zombie Levels: These Levels will be valued at your single highest buy-in Option’s value. For example: If you get the paints your receipt will show $18. If you get the Orcs your receipt will show $25. If you get both, your receipt will show $25.
If you pledge for a “Crown Jewel" Level that is available to an international backer, then your receipt will show $100 for the Vampire Level that is included with your Crown Jewel.
For items that are shipping early, such as Sophie and the Sophie Boxed Set, we will do the same thing as described above based on whatever portion of your shipment we are sending. We only anticipate the need for two shipments in total.
If you are international backer please see FAQ "What about international shipping?"
-
Sophie and Paints will ship next month [September 2012].
Everything else will ship approximately March of next year, 2013.
