With just over 2 days to go, Reaper has reveled a giant 5 headed dragon as an upcoming stretch goal, among many other goodies. :)

Now go and paint it.

I like the larger figures. The only thing is where to put it. I have the large skeleton dragon from the first kickstarter. It is very nice, but takes up a lot of table space.

Wow! Now that's a serious encounter! I draw my short sword and swing . . . lol

Thanks for posting Chris, I was thinking of getting a thread started on this too. I'm sort of torn, on the one hand I'm about at my limit for this KS, plus I'm a slow painter to begin with and this would bring out OCD and probably take a year to paint. Plus it's probably $100 USD once you factor in shipping to Canada. Plus I'm not sure how I'd game with it, either it stays in the middle of the table while everyone goes to town on it, or you're clomping all that brickwork over the table.

On the other hand, it would be an epic project, I'd have to have it explicitly included in my will…

And then I thought of using it for 6mm fantasy gaming and my head exploded.

So far I'm sticking with Goremaw from last night's advance reveals, that has some more utility.

I agree it's gaming uses are limited. I think it's more intended as a display piece. I saw someone on the KS comments last night say they were going to get a pair and make bookends out of them. grin

Bookends would be dedication! (and pretty awesome)

Some of them still need to be unlocked, but we still have 2 days.

The stretch goals added to the core set mean that the average price per figure (including several large minis) is under $.85 USD each

Mute Bystander23 Jul 2015 12:38 p.m. PST

Geez, I am at $30 USD ($1 add-on thing) but it is getting hard to stay focused and not double my money!

Norrins24 Jul 2015 2:50 a.m. PST

There is some great stuff. Just a shame it ships next year – as I want it now!

MadDrMark24 Jul 2015 3:12 a.m. PST

The value of the core set is down to $.72 USD per mini. And the last 24 hours promise to bring far more goodies!

Barin124 Jul 2015 3:26 a.m. PST

last day for backing…think I"ll back this one same as previous two…dragons and mosters are very good in Bones, and even that I have most of old metal dragons, they're too good to miss at these prices ;)

jtkimmel24 Jul 2015 6:08 a.m. PST

Barin, you have until 6pm (EDT) on Saturday 6/25 to decide how many dragons you want!

Once that lizard reaches Germany, it will be at 100 EUR. Still, if it only had one head…

Syr Hobbs Wargames25 Jul 2015 5:44 a.m. PST

This goal has been mey, so this beast is available.
