Consider them ordered.
The pictures, even the small grey guys in the middle of the kickstarter banner, make me kind of drool...

Cheers
See you in Hamburg, I suppose!

FANTASTIC! The Vertically Challenged ones are WONDERFUL creations. Their expressive faces & attention to detail make the miniatures for me. VERY WELL DONE!

Very tempted, although will depend very much on the size (not the scale, the actual size ;D). If they fit with 80s and 90s Citadel, I will find these hard to resist.

Will there be comparison pictures with other ranges when the KS is launched?

As soon as we receive master casts we can provide scal somparison pictures. But they are made to fit with our existing Dwarves range and the existing stuff looks very nicely in comparison:

Yay, more Ratnik reinforcements for my Moria Reclamation Project!
For once, maybe I will back a Kickstarter, despite my aversion to them.

Theoretically this year I am supposed to pounce on fewer kickstarters.  But this one is a must.

I would be a FOOL, to pass this one up.

I always love Dwarf D&D style explorers with extra gear...blankets, shovels, toilet paper...ect

or as the Dwarves say " Ohr ad strollen ghul " !

A truly fantastic set, definitely one I'll consider to make a dwarf adventurung party for either Mordheim or Frostgrave.
my only issue would be with the one leaning on his axe being actually midfall but my physics OCD can go sielnet when I see the other wonders here. Very nice job.

never seen it that way before, but now as you say it, yes, the one leaning on the axe could be seen as mid fall indeed  :D

yeah, I would be very curious to see a gang of these dwarves put and painted by you, should be an exiting bunch of shorties :)

I think dwarves have a different center of gravity than other bipeds.

How big are those busts, Prof?  Like dungeon decor-ish sized or shelf decor-ish sized?  Really hoping for very small as the answer...

Neotacha, they're more or less "1:1". I mean they have the size of a head of a human or a dwarf in 1:28 mm. Probably not small enough? :)

I don’t have a credit card and don’t intend to get one either, but these figures looks VERY interesting.

I don’t remember… is it Indiegogo or Kickstarter that take Paypal?

Can I pledge with Paypal?

We support most major credit cards, but we do not support payment with Paypal at this time.

Have you considered a pre-pay credit card?

Unfortunately KS doesn't support Paypal, but no worries, we'll find a way, just PM me and we'll handle this with you directly.

They look even better painted, well done by all !

One I would have passed on, now I want to have

Just wish that each of them had at least 1 weapon and some armor....they look like a survey team and not D&D explorers

Edit : Pathfinder does have a blade

At the moment there are a couple of 'early bird' deals available, it seems that some people have decided to back out. Now is the time to get an additional discount (or have more budget for an add-on  :) )

I don't know, that cast iron cookware could pack a hearty wallop!  Oddly, one of the things that pleases me about these minis is the fact that they aren't carrying weapons.  They can be fit into a village scene easily that way.

I hope you do another someday, the loaded with gear is fantastic but was hoping for a more D&D looking team of character classes

Fighter in plate
Rune priest in chain
Thief in leather
Wizard in robes

all with extra sacks and packs, secondary weapons and in advancing poses !
