Last time BBTS bought cases on the side somehow and made a deal with 4H.

I dunno if they ordered any 1.75 stuff. Probably, since they ordered 1.5.
>>
>>6169600
>How did BBTS get the figures anyway? Did BBTS backed the original KS for several thousands of dollars for like 20 cases of each characters? Did that show up on the backer list? If BBTS donation count as backer donation then that's like 20-30k at least from BBTS alone, which should count for a whole stretch goal.

That's pretty much what happened. They placed a massive order through KS (or possibly behind the scenes) and paid the same price everyone else did per figure. Once they started shipping though, BBTS were able to get their order direct from the factory and didn't have to wait for the 4H to sort and ship everything themselves (which is why people who bought through BBTS got their figures first).

In exchange for the direct shipment though, BBTS actually limited their mark up to 10-15 per figure at the 4H's request. When they bought figures from the Raven KS, they doubled the price on each figure, and some were almost triple. But for the Legions, $33 figures were 45ish and $18 figures were around $30. Far more reasonable of a mark up considering how popular these figures were (most characters sold out in a day).

>>6169051
>>6169572
>Don't those weapon packs run about $20?

These new weapon sets are $20 each. In the original KS there were three different pricepoint sets. There were basic good/evil sets of the standard weapons for $12 each, three unique weapon sets with 3-4 weapons each for $10 a pop and one banner set with 10 banners (one for each faction) and the bearded axe for $40. New sets cost more then previous sets because they come with far more weapons, but they're also much better designed imo.
>>
I hope with this new "Advent of Decay" rollout they give us more fucked my shit up characters.

I think the line, especially with all the fancy elves and shining knights is a little bit too gaudy. Everyone had shiny armor, shiny weapons, gaudy robes, etc. Even the supposed barbarians looks like they had lived a pretty comfy life.

Brother Mandibulus is certainly a step in a correct direction, but as far as I know other than him only Urzokk the orc had weathered armor (which looks amazing).

I understand that a lot of the ML fans come from MOTUC line which I don't really care about but I think they have gotten their fair share of characters. We need more down to earth, gritty characters that has obviously been through some tough shit because life in the Middle Ages, or variation thereof such as Middle Earth, Dark Souls universe, etc with demons and monsters prowling in the wilderness and without technology are supposed to be tough.
>>
>>6169715
The Bog Goblin and Ilgarr both have pretty heavy rust/patina weathering.

Mounts or maybe a samurai?

I don't know about favorites, but the one I frequently find myself fiddling with the most is the Blood Knight

More skellies. Maybe a new paintjob for Brother Skelebone's helmet.

Apparently lived under a rock and just caught wind of Mythoss a couple weeks ago, got Orn Steelhide and Asterionn off ebay before I saw the reissue info, but $60 for those guys didnt seem too bad to guarantee them...

I think im in the vast minority loving all the elves and knights, but do need some skellies too, debating whether or not to get into the Brood, anyone know if they will they issue the blood knight Fan Voted guy?

Picked up Eathyron from their store too, definitely hope they make the other 3 beast protectors, and some crazy mounts like a Griffin or Ram

Definitely wish they'd release bios along with the reveals

I guess you can just do a Jin and drybrush their bodies to "bring out the details" if what you mean by gritty is paint and literal grit.

Otherwise, I don't know, I thought the line was a good mix of fantasy and normal looking silver/grey knights and skeletons. That was always one of the best things about it because no one else was doing such a variety of "down to earth" knights even if they had a bit of a stylized touch to them (which Dark Souls and LOTR designs do anyways).

I like it because it's not McFarlane grimdark with gore and bone spikes everywhere and mallninja weapons (although some of the newer weapons packs are moving in that direction).
>>
>>6169715
a major point of the line is that they're fodder for customization. So a clean base figure gives us alot to work with.
>>
>>6170166
Oh man I agree on lizardmen. I have a Quetzlcoatl from the Birdmen Kickstarter, so he's standing in as my lizardman for now. I also ordered the dragon-man from their site, waiting for him to come. And Brother M is pretty hype.

>>6170168
Mounts would be cool. I would like a token easterner, though Gryshaa fills that niche (but admittedly is much less far east than a samurai)

Hoping we get some scrawnier skellies, but I'm sure they are hesitant to make the limbs so skinny for fear of breakage, and lack of compatibility with other parts.

So I got my Skapular today.

First off, thank you fedex for leaving my package to soak in the pouring rain.

Opening thr package, Skapster looks a bit...bootleg. His skull is paler, the black paint for his eyeholes have a lot of black paint, and his teeth are stained with black paint.

He looks like a skeleton that is also a heroin addict. I really hate his teeth.

The first Skapular I got from 1.0. Here, the teeth doesn't look like he inhaled a can of paint, theres a balance. The eyeshave ENOUGH black paint, the skull seems not too light, this head looks more real, for lack of a better word.
>>
>>6170329
>>6170336
Looks like someone got a bit too happy with the black wash. That sucks man, sorry about that. Maybe you can clean it up? Or send a comparison shot to 4H maybe. Maybe they could send just a spare head.
>>
>>6170329
Also, I forgot to mention, the heroin skap has stains of black on the side of skull, which is fine in concept, but it looks like they just applied it quickly to get over with it.

IMO, the paint job on the head couldve been done much better (I know, China, but I paid for premiere figure, not a legion builder).
>>
>>6170329
>>6170336
>another bad story about fedex
Why does fedex even exist at this point? Seems like the best they ever do is "acceptable" and the worst is nightmare fuel.

As for the figure...looks like standard QC variance bro. You could try asking them for another head. It's not the first head people have had to get a replacement for and won't be the last. There is all kinds of small (but big) QC errors in the line. I remember seeing one of the vampire dude with a bunch of random black paint splotched all over his face.

>anyone know if they will they issue the blood knight Fan Voted guy?

They've been claiming that at some point this year they'll have a big Wave 1 pre-order sale that encompasses ALL first generation figures. But only figures who meet a minimum order number will actually be put into production. Vorgus was a pretty popular character, especially for people who just want one or two figures, so he'll most likely make the cut.

>>6170159
>What do you hope we get some day?
>>6170166
>>6170296
What both of these anons said. I want Lizardmen. I went so far as to even make my own mock up during the first KS, but I never got around to finishing the colors. I had planned to do two versions, one Lizardman King (pic related) and one more generic Lizardgrunt, but never got around to doing the second one.

>What is your favorite figure that has already been released?
I've been loving Illgar lately, which I find fairly surprising. I got him mainly for his weapons, but I had planned to also use him as an old, bearded blacksmith skeleton guy. But I decided to try his bone head on him...and then found him a tattered cloak, and now he's an ancient skeleton swordmaster. My only issue is, while it was a fantastic surprise to see he came with a dagger (on top of the sword, axe and shield) it would have been nice if it was painted to match.

>What are you most looking forward to from this kickstarter?
...the weapons. I won't lie, the figures all look great, but the unique weapons can turn a good figure great, a great figure fantastic and a fantastic figure into something completely amazing.

>>6170315
In the year or so since the last KS figures have shipped, I've purchased at LEAST a dozen different figures all from the various pre-order, mid-wave and in-stock sales. While it's killing me in shipping, not once did I pay aftermarket prices. Sign up, throw a dollar in, and you'll be updated for life.
>>
>>6170359

...uses mostly wave 1 parts with new wings, head, loin armor and pauldrons...I can see him making it to 2.0. They mentioned they're going to release Batwings (and a wing adapter) at some point, and they teased the evil weapon set will have more villains to wield them...so now I have to reorganize my order to fit in another deluxe figure.
>>
Is there a customization system online (that's not the fan exclusive poll) that I can use to see how different parts of the figures can fit together? Or do I have to MS Paint it?
>>
>>6170336
>>6170329
>>6170342

Shit I just realized that both of my Kickstarter Skapulars don't even HAVE any black in the nose... Kind of like it better this way as none of my other skeletons have solid black noses or eyes.

The AllStars does look noticeably shittier than the original one, though. I have an extra one coming tomorrow so I'll compare mine as well.

Let me guess that is the post about trans- yep lol.

It's the classic "I don't really care about this so don't get mad but I'm going to write three pages about why I care about this" move.

Like it's really a non issue here this is such a diverse lineup and people can imagine these characters to be whatever they want to be. I'm sure this thread will end well.

>>6170378

>>6170387
While there really was no need to post it, there's also no need to be upset by it. Asexual, non-gendered characters aren't exactly unheard of in fantasy and it's not like adding a single character of questionable gender/sexuality would cause any harm.

I think the real question should be how buttblasted are you to be so bothered by it you had to call it out?

>and it's not like adding a single character of questionable gender/sexuality would cause any harm

Most of the figures could be that, though, it's just lorefags wanting it printed in a bio. It's the same kind of people who need to know that the one knight legion builder is "male" because they can't bear the idea of another female figure lol.

do any of the skeletons have confirmed genders? Couldn't you just write your own lore where like, Gryshaa is whatever you want them to be? I dunno this just seems like such a non-issue. Pick someone androgenous and call them anything you want.

Haha yeah they could officially tell me that Gryshaa was a cat person and I'd be like fuck you he's some middle eastern bounty hunter dude in weird armor to me.

Not having like thirty years of cartoons and bullshit behind them, all of these figures are pretty neutral characters even the ones with faces imo. Some people need official verification, I dunno.

I have a loose "story" for all of the figures and MOTUC I own so I couldn't give a single fuck about existing bios but I do respect the thought behind it. If it matters this much, just come up with your own autistic ideas like me.

lol that's retarded but equally retarded are the people getting extreme buttblasted by it. If 4H is smart they will just stick to their guns that each character can be whatever you want it to be.

>>
>>6170494
Actually, there's plenty of evidence of transgender awareness in older civilizations.

The argument become rather moot, however, as Mythic Legions is not about any sort of historical accuracy, what with the skellies, goblins, trolls, and such.

Anyways, if someone wants a trans character in their toy, they can make up their own story about the character. Nothing says they have to stick with the lore when they play with their toys.
>>
>>6170483
Unfortunately no. He (and a lot of the rest of my collection) are currently stored away at my parents' property. We moved and couldn't take everything with us at the time. He can hold it two-handed, though, which is nice.

I agree that it would be unnecessary. They could just as easily make a gender neutral character, who's gender, race, etc. is totally unknown and it wouldn't bother anyone while still giving people the softer option of an lgbt character.

Just opened my Baron and something is amiss. First can anyone confirm that the gauntlet piece supposed to be black, while the upper arm and hand supposed to be metallic? It's not very clear in promo pic, but it is kind of jarring here. I wonder if they assembled the wrong part on him. Maybe the hand is also supposed to be black, or the gauntlet forearm supposed to be metallic?

Second thing I noticed is that he doesn't have any red eye painted on him, while in the promo pics like http://www.shopfourhorsemen.com/mylebavo.html he definitely had some. Can someone with the exact figure confirm this?

Finally a minor nitpick the paint on the crotch tabbard is abysmal. It is gloppy, and the black is peeking through. It kinda looks like he had a purple dong coming out of his crotch tabbard. I wonder if I can get replacement piece for this.

Other than him the Templar legion builders, shadow orcs, and deluxe knights were all excellent.
>>
>>6170778
Yes, the forearms are supposed to be black with silver hands

The eye-paint never made it to production, sadly

That's super unlucky

Yes. They'll send out a pledge manager a while after the Kickstarter. You'll be able to add more products and change or confirm your address. They're probably not going to lock the manager until the figures are about to ship next year, so you have plenty of time to decide the address.

To each of their own. I sold my Gorgo a while ago, because that helmet mold when split between different factions is kind of silly.

Best bet is to grab a Barbarian builder pack, or maybe just see if you can buy the batwings themselves. the BTS on the 4H forums could have someone with extra bits they're willing to get rid of.

>>6170877
I've been saying from the start that Gorgo not having a unique head was a HUGE mistake. He's the only faction leader without one, and even worse his head was used four times. In fairness, two of those four times were fan based decisions, through the FanEx voting and the general demand for a "Death Dealer" expy.

That said, I got a feeling that issue will be rectified during this KS by Gorgo getting a "demotion" of sorts in his own army.

>>6170912
They've been asked about it regularly, but the general response usually comes back to it being a logistics issue in the way the molds are laid out.

This

My girl is a trans-woman. She and a lot of her peers are fucking sick of this wave of gender politics from millennials that want to be specifically labeled as TRANS when all she & her friends struggled with was just to be regarded as a woman & lives under the radar about it.

A declared tranny action figure, especially right now, would just cause a shitstorm of /pol/ bullshit when all we want to do is be left alone to argue among ourselves about scales, articulation, cloth vs. plastic & all the other dumb shit that brought us here.


>>6170778

>I switched the antlers out for barbarian builder horns & it looks a LOT better

I kinda like the Antlers, they're what really drew me to him. A very different take on the headgear of the evil warlord. I gave him a couple of black dwarves with gold antlers and weapons as subordinates, along side some orcs of course, and they just kind of go well together.

...that said, a LOT of these figures are running around with antlers now to the point it's getting kind of silly.
>>
>>6171047
>Gorgo is secretly just two evil dwarves in one suit of armor

>>
>>6171047
Evil knights with antlers are pretty common trope in Celtic-themed fantasy. The Horned King in the Chronicles of Prydain, for example. Or the Knights who say Ni.
>>
>>6171068
With the way the image of Faunus (?) is cracking I was hoping we'd see an evil use of that head.

Sure, if you have the money to do so. But remember during the first week of release or so you'll be competing with BBTS and the markup was only 10 bucks or so.

I can't decide if I should just buy these for myself or if I should buy a bunch and sell them in my game shop. It's a card/tabletop gaming shop so I have no idea if they'll sell like crazy or like warm milk on a hot day.

You can always ebay them reliably for a lot of money. It kind of depends though, some certain archetypes are guaranteed to sell. For example the generic knights, barbarians, generic skeleton and the templar knights. The generic legion builders too. There are other exemplary characters who were initially severely under-ordered then people realized how cool they were and then shoots up in price.

The weirder characters like the demons, elfs, etc. I'd say cater to a very specific need and are fairly big risk. There are a lot of not very interesting women characters and twink elves in this upcoming line. For example, pic related is the only remaining 1.0 character available at BBTS, because he's a weird yellow pikachu demon that only cater to a specific people.

The safest bet would be to stock up on legion builders, they're $95 for like x6 of them and they're for sure designed to be generic. The upcoming elves comes with 2 extra heads and dwarves comes with an extra head.

It's a tough call. Even with a mark up you'd be cheaper than the raping people get from buying a Warhammer pack of minis. Plus they don't have to paint them.

You might get some impulse buys from them and wouldn't have to worry with competing against BBTS prices. Plus if they don't sell you can always eBay them later. I made enough selling extras of the KS Exclusive, the Orc guys and that Fan Exclusive after the figures came out that covered my pledge from the last one.

I'm surprised no one made a game to go along with these yet.

from what I have read and seen, it seems like when it started in Academia there were a few cases of professors inserting this sort of bias into lessons outside of stuff like Gender Studies. I get the impression that Gender Studies very quickly became a foothold for third wave feminism idealology in colleges.

But Gender Studies on it's own wasn't really a bad thing, at least in my opinion. Universities should be advocating understanding of all possible viewpoints and areas of knowledge, and that includes even the Gender Studies.

The realissue of all this political correctness and crazy civil rights issue corrupting even Academia actually has it's primary roots with the students. Sure the professors and staff are at fault for enabling this, but it was the students who suddenly started making demands for 'safe environments'. They would form up student unions and manage to persuade higher ups in the school into forming student run oversight committees that focused on 'proper ethical and moral behavior' and police other students, even the teachers as well.

There are plenty of colleges that are trying to push back against this and allow true freedom of speech, but there are still too many cases of high end Colleges condoning this mindset. Like last christmas break(not this past one) when Harvard had placed 'Holiday Placemats for Social Justice' on all the tables in dining and lounge areas. Distributed by the administrators themselves, these mats told students when going home to their families who did not have a proper educated view of the world, how to re-educate their families. Harvard has profusely apologized for it, but it is indeed an issue that is emerging in the past few years.

>Or hyena heads to get some Kobolds
Fun fact, it is beleived the reason for dog bolds in japanese media is due to a mistranslation from one of the earliest descriptions of the kobold in DnD. They were mentioned to have Dog-like faces while having a scaled hide. The japanese translations apparantly turned that into dog faces and ran with it.

I can't find the specific descriptions at the moment so have this instead.

(I'm the guy who makes them)

I put the first version up on their FB page but nobody seemed to pay it any mind so I wasn't going to bother. Whoever specifically runs 4H's FB might be leery of me since they still owe me figures from the very first run & they stopped talking to me about it after the third time I reminded them and they said "Oh yeah, those will be out to you next week!"

It was a six pack of legion builder black armor Skellys, I bought TWO sets (12) & they only sent me one (6) after all the rigamarole of the allocations had supposedly been settled.

They shorted me before on some Clavians in the previous wave which I got...eventually but even by 4H standards of shipping and communication its become absurd. I've even told them that if they didn't have them in stock I'd be willing to take replacements but...it's 4H and they've proven that one-on-one communication isn't their strong suit. I've been half tempted to dig up their phone number but they are sitting on several 'generated fedex labels' for two weeks now in my name so I'm going to hold off an see what happens.

Oh yeah...I just made it to price out within my budget & thought it might be useful for budgeting.

Here is mine so far.
>>
>>6172548
I usually try to budget myself on toy purchases. If theres a marvel legends wave I used to buy it at once, but lately I'll pick a figure up at a time. I just ordered black panther last night from walmart. This way, of course, there is no way to budget so it's a little different. To me, at least.

Thing is, this is a fantasy world made by the 4H. If they want to make a goblin that's 20 inches tall, then they can because it's theirs.

Your opinion doesn't matter. You may not like it, and you don't have to buy it, but saying it's not a goblin is just flat wrong. It is a goblin. It's their world's version of a goblin.

...you do realize the Goblin HAS a new torso right? That this figure is mostly new parts with only the arms and boots being reused? That this guy is a tiny little grunt that's shorter then the Dwarves? You realize these things right?

Because it would look awfully silly of you to complain about the 4H being too cheap to make new parts for a figure that's mostly made of new parts.

Also, the Bog Goblin was one of the best damn figures from Wave 1.

>>6173066
At some point within the year, they're going to have a massive Super Pre-Order sale including all figures released from the original KS to 1.75, including the trolls. The catch being only figures who reach a certain minimum order will actually get made though.

One of the 4H confirmed it. They use the basic slender arms to make them look gangly and thin compared to the Dwarves with their thicker limbs. The arms and the boots are the only parts of the body construction that are reused, the rest is all new tooling.

>At some point within the year, they're going to have a massive Super Pre-Order sale including all figures released from the original KS to 1.75, including the trolls. The catch being only figures who reach a certain minimum order will actually get made though.

I wonder how the logistics of that is going to play out. Like if you order 6 different things but only 4 of them make. Will they refund shipping or cancel just those items from everyone's order or what.

In the meantime I am ready to give BBTS my money the second they put up overpriced Templar Builders.
>>
>>6173518
You are probably over thinking this but they will probably have orders open for a set amount of time. Order what you want but no payment will be taken at that time. Once the order window closes they will take payment for whatever figures were going to be made.

I really hope all of them get made but im sure some wont make the cut but who knows. They have only gained in popularity.

>...you do realize the Goblin HAS a new torso right? That this figure is mostly new parts with only the arms and boots being reused? That this guy is a tiny little grunt that's shorter then the Dwarves? You realize these things right?
No shit? It's almost like I've already mentioned this before in the thread. The fact remains that everything else is still a reuse that isn't proportioned the way a goblin is.

>this guy is a tiny little grunt that's shorter then the Dwarves
Now there's the thing. How much shorter does the torso make him?
Last i checked, no one knows and no comparison has been made.
Considering how big the head is, will it be like the Bog Goblin where it actually makes him bigger?

>>6173307

It's not real. They don't really care what they're saying.
It's a bunch of angry people shouting anything to dismiss everything anyone says if they dislike the cheapo retool that necessitates completely new tooling.

I just got my Covenant of Shadows and they're loosely tied with plastic-coated twists. No damage.

I'd prefer the soft paper kind but it's worlds better than the tight plastic bands Mattel uses for their Masters of the Universe that literally cut into the paint.

I really wish they'd repaint myria. i don't get it because the other forest elf they have is light skin toned, not green.
>>
>>6174592

I think it's pretty.

I just wish the armor wasn't green. Her skin blends into it too much, making her look more monochromatic than I'd like. She would look much better in bronze or silver armor IMO.
>>

>>6174722
Fuck yes.
>>
>>6174592
>>6174631

Either one of these would've worked for me, especially since she's basically one of only two elf females. Hopefully the FanEx figure goes the Elf Girl Rogue route it seems to be heading.

Also, the new named goblin is so awesome, I now need him and two legion builders to follow and annoy him.
>>
>>6174722
I am so hyped for this. Getting at least two troop builder goblins and this guy for sure.

We'll be able add on in the backerkit too, right?
>>
>>6174722
maybe the NEXT reveal will be something I want. For real this time.
>>
>>6174728
Yes, after the KS is closed and your initial pledge is processed it'll be another few weeks before you get the Backerkit survey. After that it'll remain open for a few weeks where you could spend more then you pledged to get more figures.

There will also most likely be a Storehorsemen Pre-Order sale after the molds are tooled but before they go into full production. You'll pay per figure, and probably more then the KS price, as well as for more shipping but it's a third chance to get figures from this wave.

Just came into thread, not sure how kickstarters work. How much do you have to donate to get one of these?
>>
>>6174797
$30 (including the $12 shipping. Additional goblin legion builders are $18.)

>>6174814
So once you've donated at least $30 you can just buy additional goblins for $18? Or am I just retarded?

You have to pledge a minimum of $30 for one of the basic figures. That would get you one of the 4 basic Legion Builders (spending $45 would get you one the more detailed figures of the initial wave, this initial purchase also includes shipping).

Once you have your initial pledge you then add onto it the amount it would cost to purchase whatever additional figures or accessory sets you like.

For example, if you want the new Goblin figure, you would pledge $63, $30 for the initial figure, then $33 for the fully painted Goblin figure.

At the end of the Kickstarter, the money is collected. A few weeks after you'll receive a Survey (remember your Sign in and Password) where you can select exactly what items you would like to receive or even purchase more items then what you pledged for (at additional cost).

Once your pledge is paid for and your survey submitted (again, remember your log in info and SAVE THE CONFIRMATION) it's just a small, simple, totally common....1-2 year wait for the figures to ship out to you.

This will be their third KS, and they've delivered each time. It may take a while but the figures will get delivered.
>>
>>6174830
The payment plan thing for me sounds daunting, so you "buy" a figure unpainted and pay more for it to be painted?
>>
>>6174836
No. Some are called "legion builders" which means they have minimal paint and are intended as generic soldiers.

Some are named characters with much more paint and unique head sculpts, which cost more because of the extra paint and work they require.
>>
>>6174836

legion builders aren't unpainted, they just have basic paintjobs, nothing flashy.

The more expensive figures have unique sculpts or weapons, and more detailed paint.

legion builders are cheap so you can army(legion) build them, without spending a lot.

The 1st series knights were basically unpainted with all the colors dyed into the plastic. It might be the same for the steel and iron knights.

They're good, solid stands being sold at a decent price, but they have a huge shelf-footprint and can only hold a figure in so many poses. They're great for stuff you intend to leave stationary, but better, less intrusive stands exists out there.

>>6174866
Highly doubtful, the helmet seems to be most identifying feature.

>>6174934
It's a wet dream mock up with no chance of existing. The 4H basically said they wouldn't be able to give the FanEx figure wings and multiple Tampo'd paint effects like that pic is pushing for. Also, that loin armor is horrendously overused.

>>6175021
I can see the Vampire Faction using females as their main fighting force, while the male "Knights" act as unit commanders. That said, I do find it funny that the Army of Leodysseus, which is storywise the biggest human army in Mythos, only has a single, female, Legion Builder figure in it's ranks. They could certainly use more members.

>>6175053
No one really knows how many figures are planned, but we do know for sure there will be at least 3-4 possible reveals. They've been teasing a figure with hooves and a Stag head since the beginning, the FanEx character is still being built, they're working on a more traditional Elf Ranger character (with multiple heads) and there's a possibility of the Arethyr's main God seeing figure form in this KS run. Assuming they make the elf the KS Exclusive (doubtful) that means there's at least 4 more to go.

>>6175064
No one was excluded, the 4H have had multiple sales, and will have multiple more, to try and get these figures in the hands of those who want them. While their timed sales and made-to-order stock system can be frustrating, they do repeatedly return back to these figures and make more based on fan request. You will have another chance at ALL original run figures around this summer.

The reveal of Knubnick really through me off and I've updated my "to buy" list because of it. I actually knocked off one of my most anticipated figures for the goblin goon because of just how awesome he is. But looking at my buy list, I'm kind of amazed at just how many actually uniquely built figures there are in this Wave. Out of 11 figures, there's only two repeated torsos, and one of them has different limbs (and a head) making him unique anyway.

The variety of parts in this KS is pretty staggering and fairly unexpected. The sheer amounts of possibilities going forward is really exciting.

Starting to regret missing out on the Forest dude.
>>

Yeah, they'll probably be part of the big preorder sale whenever that happens. If enough get preordeeed, then they'll make them.

There's also the possibility that they'll go up for sale when they put up new troll types to order. It'd be cheaper for them to make the first two trolls with any new ones because they use the same body.

There's also probably going to be plenty of new trolls in the future. The lore says there's over two dozen species.

>>6175839
>If enough get preordeeed, then they'll make them.

Does anyone have predictions and want to place their bets on what's the limit and which character gonna get remade? I'm kind of anxious that the characters I want might not made the cut, and then I'm stuck into an even more expensive Ebay price (and rarity) than it is now.

Here are the guys that I wanted:
- Silver knight legion builder
- Orc warrior legion builder
- Generic skeleton legion builder
- Schapoid the green skeleton

I mostly don't want to pay rape ebay prices for the legion builders whom I know are less expensive and have less complex paint
>>
>>6175899
>>Here are the guys that I wanted:

I would expect that those are all pretty high on the list of things that will get made.
>>
>>6175899
The Legion builders are almost garunteed to get reruns, lots of people regret not getting them, or want more. I need an orc legion builder myself, and maybe a skeleton.

And if these threads are anything to go by, I've seen A LOT of non-buyers remorse on Scaphoid so I'd say his chances are good.
