So What’s That Mars Attacks Miniatures Game Sweet Spot?
October 15, 2013 by brennon
Modern Scenery, US Soldiers, Martians… oh and Flying Saucers! I'm fairly sure you guys know what we're going to be talking about. It looks like there is a very nice sweet spot for Mantic's current Kickstarter.
The Mars Attacks Kickstarter is going great (ray) guns, in fact it’s just had a fantastic weekend with a plethora of new stuff and great thing about this Kickstarter is you can choose what you want.
For example, if you’re looking for some modern day scenery, perhaps for DUST or Zombicide, you can pledge just for the modular plastic Red Brick Scenery.
Of course, if you’re looking for a modern/post-modern set of troops, the US Soldiers are affordable and in plastic – and you’ll be able to pick up a bucket load on the Kickstarter.
Of course, if you’re in it for Mars Attacks, the deal has got a whole lot sweeter – and what’s great is that since the weekend, a whole raft of Early Bird pledge levels have opened up, meaning you can get the following at an even great discount!!
The pledge level shown at the top of the piece gives you a load of credit that you can spend on Core Add-Ons, and there’s a long list ranging from Saucers to Stealth Martians, Comic Book Vehicles to the Patriot Silverback Flatbed Truck.
If you fill your credit out, you’re getting in the region of $250-$350 worth of stuff at RRP/MSRP prices, for $150 – one hell of a deal, and we’re not even done throwing in Bonus goodies yet!
And as we said, there’s a number of discounted Pledge Levels available where you can get an even sweeter deal.
Prepare you tabletop for invasion, and get yourself a fantastic deal!

I’m slightly surprised by this pledge level. On the first day of the kickstarter I pledged for Early Bird: The Invaders Arrive package and thought I’d got a great deal. It now appears that, as a reward for backing so quickly, I’ve saved $3… and that’s it???
I must say that this is a little disappointing/depressing.
Unless I’ve got it wrong, that’s $147 for the game ($75) and $125 of other stuff. I agree it’s lacking in the freebies from Dreadball, Deadzone and KoW but you’re saving a wee bit more than a paltry $3
My point is that the Invaders Arrive pledge is $150 (available at any time) and is identical to the Early Bird: Invaders Arrive pledge I made on day one for £147. I’m disappointed that my reward for pledging on the first day is a 2% saving… I’d hoped for a little more than that.
I’m still very much looking forward to the game mind you. The video and Beta rules have made me want my copy yesterday.
That’s in line with most, if not all other Kickstarters I’ve seen. Early bird offers aren’t massive, just a little bonus. The real value’s in all the free/extra/exclusive stuff.
I agree it looks a fantastic game – and there’s nothing like seeing it played to get people interested (me included).
Ok. I must admit this is the first KS I’ve actually pledged on and I clearly expected too much… although they have thrown in an alternative pose Tor as an incentive to get on-board before 27th. Which is nice.
I bagged a $140 Invader and saved $10 which is like having an extra gift towards more awesomely awesome awesomeness. Hehe. No matter even if you didnt get a saving we are still in for quite a treat. 🙂
can somebody help be understand the funding levels?
example: will of man, 150$, contains the game and strech goals, + $125 in adds ons…
the part that confuses me, is that they listed the game as an add on for $75, with leaves 75$ left in that pledge, meaning that you’re really only getting $50 more dollars of stuff?
No, it’s 75 bucks if you want an extra copy of the game, or if you pledged at a level that does not already include it.
invaders arrive. my bad.
I got onboard originally because I wanted the bubble-helmeted aliens to go with my Cobalt mercs and Ygrainne, but there’s more and more useful stuff being added…
I pledged at the “Bloodshed on the Battlefield” level. $300 for the game, all the stretch goals, £325 dollars worth of add ons and free postage. Awesome. 😀
Me too. Looking forward to all the goodness gakk gakk
For one piece models I’m rather happy with the look and detail.
