I’m a backer “vampire level” of Reaper Bone,the polymer is soft like rubber, absolutely not hard
So is the quality as good as they claim in the video Aigor?
I bought one last week as it happens to fin dout, my new local game store is a stockist.
I bought a frost giant variant, it cost £6.20, which is about a third of the cost of the metal version (it stands a bit over 2 inches tall so its quite big) , its an odd material, you do not prime it, just wash it well, use hot/cold water dunks to straighten out weapons and basecoat it with non watered down stuff, I used the old foundation paints as my base layers, one coat and it worked perfectly. I’ll post up some pics when its all done, I’m not a great painter by any means, but it will perhaps give an idea of what its like.
I think they are great, so much so I’ve ordered a couple bigger ones , again mainly just to paint, a dragon for £16? No one can say thats a bad thing.
I like the Frost Giant (with harpoon) and also the fire dragon
They seem affordable. if there is a UK supplier I might just have to relent
although they would only sit atop a pile of other stuff never to be finished and/or used lol
Men are judged by the size of their “never to be finished” pile. It shows the will to contemplate and complete projects, however large. Size does matter. You’ll be remembered as a visionary: order them.

GW could learn lessons from the promo video 😉
Just checked out the previous KS and was wondering how much customs hit you for in the UK. What did you end up paying?
I’ve bought a lot of Reaper Bones, and while they are not the greatest in terms of preserving detail, they do have one giant advantage: I can get a bucket of good sculpts for cheap. $3.49 vs. $20.00 for the equivalent figure from a company like GW. I managed to bulk out most of my armies for a very reasonable cost. And let’s not forget, these are the same figures they sell in their fabulous pewter line. The loss in detail seems to be hit or miss, but it is never so bad that they can’t be used to fill out units. Larger creatures, like griffons and dragons, are a particularly good deal.
Rubber? Yeah, kinda like the plastic D&D figures. But I don’t have a problem with knocking off a spear or a particularly long drooping sword and replacing it with a metal or plastic one. Obviously most people were happy with the product, as they’re doing another kickstarter. My only concern would be getting all the figures I need before they decide to jack the prices.
Personally, I like the sculpt quality for the cost, but I don’t like how the paint holds. They are rubbery, and have a “memory” that you can set, by boiling some water, dunking in the bent part, fixing it in place, and dunking in ice water. I like that also. But again the paint… I found myself constantly having to go back and fix these strange little flakes that would just, disappear. That’s after priming also.
so in the first 25 min, they have 175K+ in backing and 1700 people backing it so far, should be good value for some minis
