Title: Pirates of Treasure Island Kickstarter
Post by: 6milPhil on July 20, 2018, 03:01:27 PM: Blimey I've posted a KS which isn't mine... whatever next?

Photos seem a trifle dark and small, basically they're $5 a piece (plus P&P) whether you have one or all of them...

Post by: The Dozing Dragon on July 21, 2018, 09:08:52 PM: I've been looking forward to them for ages as well. Blogged about them in 2013.

Post by: flags_of_war on July 21, 2018, 09:55:41 PM: Gorgeous figures and a KS that will do well. I have far too many pirates sadly.

Post by: btdjohnno on July 21, 2018, 11:16:15 PM: Hi All,
I would like to thank you all for the kind comments. This has been a labor of love and has taken quite a few years to finally launch.
If you have any thoughts or questions or anything really, please let me know.
I will update the KS next week with a video of me dressed as a pirate. Quite silly I know.

6milPhil - if there is any of the figs you would like to see larger scale please let me know.

Cheers,
John

Will this be shiped from USA or from UK?
Title: Re: Pirates of Treasure Island Kickstarter
Post by: cianty on July 22, 2018, 12:04:11 PM: Very happy to see them being released now after almost 10 years at last. They are very cool characterful figures.

I thing between Cianty and Dozing Dragon all the pictures from the sculptors photobucket are there thanks. I'd seriously suggest either putting them up on the KS or linking to the photobucket though as the detail isn't immediately apparent. I've pledged already, it was me asking about UK/EU shipping.

Post by: manatic on July 25, 2018, 11:08:13 AM: I was somewhat surprised about the lack of a pledge that would include all the Treasure Island packs. I hope there's a chance to buy several using the pledge manager!

Hi All,

If you have any thoughts or questions or anything really, please let me know.

John how do the figures scale up against current 28mm pirate ranges? Are they Foundry size 28mm or Black Scorpion or another size?
