Author Topic: Kev Adams Pirate goblins - Indiegogo - anybody received theirs ?  (Read 7490 times)

A couple of months ago, Bruno Galice ran a succesful campaign on Indiegogo to produce some pirate goblins, which supposedly were shipped about a month ago.

Has anybody received anything yet ? On the Indiegogo page, there's no more news, also some other disgruntled backers. Bruno Galice was als registered on LAF, but hasn't been active for a couple of months. He's still alive though (or someone else is using his facebook account), just uncommunicative.

Same here. I'm assuming he found out that things don't always run as smoothly as you plan and that this is just a temporary setback, with figures getting there eventually.

No sign of them here either...He has also dropped off of the BLOOD forum...which he started!  I hope he is doing OK and will give us an update soon.  They are amazing looking figures and I look forward to painting them.

Cheers,

Just after a bit of consensus (before I start emailing), but has anybody in the UK received their Goblins yet?

According to the feedback on the project, they're at least some UK residents who have received them about 10 days ago (http://www.indiegogo.com/projects/pirate-goblins-box-set?c=comments).

I suggest that you try contacting the project responsible

For those who still haven’t received anything as of today then there is probably a problem with your postal address, please contact me at bg@bruno-galice.info

I emailed him on April 16 to make sure he had the right address for me - which he did not, a line was missing.  The package he had mailed me had bounced back (he emailed me a picture).  He said he was resending my package that day with the correct address.  So far it has not arrived, but it has only been a week and I am in Canada.

Hopefully that helps?

Based on what I know, lots are posted directly, and almost one at a time, by Bruno. I've no idea if it's done so due to production delay or if he's plain lazy, but I received mine  (in france) a couple of weeks ago, and I've friends (still in France) that didn't yet. The only conclusion, as far as I'm concerned, is the I won't go into such project again, being strongly disappointed by the total lack of professionnalism here.

I got mine a week ago or so - lack of contact was the main annoyance. They are very nice and he is doing more Dwarves soon.....I did post pics on my blog but forgot to mention it to anyone  :-[

Indeed it was, but I'll probably still be willing to back dwarf pirates if they look good enough - I'm kinda stupid that way.

Mine arrived late last week...I know that Bruno has had some health problems and this shipping thing has turned into a nightmare for him.  I'm not trying to make excuses for him but in my experience he is a very stand up guy and will try to make it right.  Contact him directly and work through it with him.

Good luck!  the figure are great!

Cheers,

Blue

I would say give it time. As a small business owner I know what it can be like to deal with lots of shipping and still maintain a full time job. If he got an email from everyone who posted on just this thread it could take him days to sort that out alone. Now I am not excusing him from poor choices just that it is easy to think of a small guy as another "Megamart"...
