Great news on the Night Stalkers (the miniature I have for it is one I've wanted to paint up for too long, and hadn't found an excuse to do so) Uncle Mike,

I just picked up the SA PDF the other day and had a quick read through. I must say they look excellent, as long time Mordheim player, I think I found a replacement for Mordheim in my gaming rotation  :D. I was so enthused on the rules I actually went and purchased some various miniatures for Threshold Agents the day I read them, and am now eagerly painting up terrain. Can't wait to give SA a try soon.

All that aside, and more relevant to the thread... the shirt look excellent LidlessEye! I've never seen a gaming shirt I've really liked, but there is a first for everything. That art is too great to pass up on a shirt.

Thanks and I hope you like them. I played Mordheim for years...one of my favorite games.

The Missing Links don't look like they are actually mating.  Honestly, that is a good thing.  Not sure I would want figures of mating Squatches...

Please don't give Mike ideas for bonus figures!  :o

Perhaps some rewording from "Mating" to "Mated"

Mating Missing Links I think would qualify as a "Scene of Horror"?

Try Scene of Terror!  Have you heard what a sasquatch sounds like normally?

Second one from the bottom is clearest.  Yes, yes, I'm a cryptozoology geek too...

Terror/Horror! It would be scary as hell in either case!

Final preview!  The Innsmouth Box serves up a fishy buffet of ichthyic terror, with four Fishmen, a Fishman Demagogue, three Hybrids and the monstrous Deep One.  And yes, all these models are depicted to scale with one another - it really is that big.

Talked my wife into the Cult Membership. I was about to purchase and had a moment of confusion. It is tacking on a $12 shipping also. Is that right? I would assume the card, shirt and cult model would just end up in the Kickstarter package (shipped together) cost which again I assume there will be a shipping fee for the KS correct? Just didn't want to over pay in shipping! Rather have my bucks for the KS

Also, how big is an actual 2x, I notice some places are a bit different than others. I have bought some 2X that was tight and others a bit loose....4X seems a bit big for me but if the 2x is a smaller fit rather go larger for wash shrinkage and fatness.

Cult Memberships purchased on the site before Wednesday ship immediately rather than with the Kickstarter, hence the normal shipping fee.  I'll PM you with some options.

And thanks for reminding me about t-shirt sizes, as I have to add that info to the Kickstarter page.  Laid flat, 2X is 26" wide/32" long, vs. 30"/34" for 4X.  We should be able to offer a 3X now as well thanks to bulk ordering for the Kickstarter, which falls right in the middle at 28"/33".

This sounds strangely familiar...

Just to update everyone, the target launch time for tomorrow remains at 11AM Mountain (10AM Pacific, 1PM Eastern, 6PM UK, 7PM Central Europe).  As this is my first time launching a Kickstarter though, please bear with me if the actual start is a few minutes late!  And apologies to our fans in Australia and New Zealand - try as I might, there's no such thing as a time that will work for everyone.

I was asked about early birds on another site, so I shall spill the beans here as well: yes, we do have some early bird pledge levels, but the number of slots is quite generous, and we may consider opening up more in the event they're rapidly occupied.
