My favourites for AvP so far

You guys won’t give Dust any love over their Kickstarter meanwhile Prodos are extorting their kickstwrter backers for additional money just so they can hope to get their pledge finally sent. Really disappointed in beasts of war who should stand behind the community not with Prodos let them know they get no more coverage until they treat their backers properly.

Been out in retail for almost a year multiple expansion releases yet many backers have yet to even see the core game. Yet you take Jareks lies and weak excuses as gospel when any logical person would have seen through his bs and unscrupulous and unprofessional business conduct. They admitted to using avsp funds to fulfil warzone In post on Facebook and would be charged with a crime if they were located in North America

Now if you want to jump ahead of others for shipping according to their last update just buy something from the store and they will ship your pledge before the other backers who refuse to be extorted

Beasts of war has failed to be the voice of the community and has utterly disappointed me in ignoring the glaring and offensive attitude of Prodos towards their backers who funded this whole thing.

I . . . dunno, @pinkfluffyclouds . I’m not going to pretend I understand what’s been going on with Prodos and these minis. And judging by these +s there are some people who agree with you. I’d just be slightly careful about taking valid frustrations you may have with Prodos out on Beasts of War. Kickstarter or not, some gamers have these figures and may be interested in seeing an unboxing.

I mean, is it really BoW’s job to check the status of a KS before featuring content on a show?

And they had a big segment on the Dust KS woes during either an Weekender or XLBS, although admittedly it was a way back.

Again, not saying you and lots of others weren’t dicked over on this KS. Just don’t know if its a BoW thing. Just my two cents. 😀

All I know is that this video makes me want a Monster energy drink 😉

Seriously though, these models look great, keep up the good work fellas.

@elhanko – well said and understood. 😀

@ghostbear – a little off topic, but I just bought Catalyst Game Lab’s new stater set for Battletech and I’m looking into finally building my first Battletech force. I’ll be damned if I’m not “hooked” on the idea of Clan Ghostbear. Any tips on mechs? Campaign ideas? Do I have to fight only House Kurita / Clan Wolf / ComStar – Word of Blake, etc., places that actually share borders with Ghostbear? We can move the chat to a more appropriate thread if you want. 😀

I don’t think either BoW or Prodos are doing themselves any favours by having any articles at the moment with the toxicity of the brand (irrespective of how great the minis are – I bought AvP from retail and they are amazing).

Anything going up at the moment is inviting negative comments. I know some say there’s no such things bad publicity…. but I would beg to differ on this occasion.

I’m someone who’s interested in these unboxings. I don’t know all the ins and outs of the kickstarter debacle. It may well be that Prodos have treated customers pretty shabily and it sounds like they’ve given up communicating with them, which always seems like a disastrous idea. But it also seems like they’re between a rock and a hard place, and I can’t see that it would help anyone for them to go out of business. Revenge might feel sweet, but no one would gain from it.

So although I don’t blame those who feel hard done by for constantly bringing it up, it doesn’t mean I want to see multiple posts making the same point within a single article’s comment’s section. Prodos exist and they’re making some amazing product. I think Beasts of War should be covering them. I think they got the balance right in allowing Prodos to explain themselves, just as they’ve got the balance right in providing an outlet for angry backers to complain about the company. But guys, you’re not now telling us anything we don’t already know. I really, really hope you eventually get all your stuff, and that you’ll eventually enjoy using it (or sell it on for a tidy profit). But having made your point, please try not to clog up every discussion with repeating that same point, nor by having a go at BoW.

Great looking minis and I look forward to receiving them at some point 🙂

I’ve also composed my own reply to the comments re Prodos, but I’ll put them in the AvP backers thread. It’s pretty long!

This is a useful overview, thank you! I’ve linked your video in my article about the set: https://alkony.enerla.net/english/the-nexus/miniatures-nexus/miniature-related/miniature-set/predator-young-bloods-set-for-alien-vs-predator-ed1-the-hunt-begins-from-prodos-games-2015-miniature-set-review
