This is one of the biggest grossing miniatures/games KS I've seen.  I think one of the Bones did 3.4 million, and things like Robotech did maybe 1.7 million.  If they break 3.0 million that's pretty impressive.  I was expecting 1.5 million when it started.

Nice finish!  Now, if I change my mind down the road and decide I might actually have a use for this game, at least I know there will be 16000 or so people out there getting one, with a high likelihood that more than a few will have buyer's remorse and will be willing to sell it  lol

An amazing amount of stuff for that base pledge amount. I'll likely add in the expansions when the PM comes out.

Yeah, I could see that being me!  I finally caved in and backed this KS.  So, far the remorse part hasn't hit me.
I did the same thing with Zombicide, and sold it shortly after getting it.

If the rate at which Zombicide kickstarter exclusives are sold on ebay is any guide, you shouldn't have to regret your investment!

No, unfortunately, I wasn't smart enough to make a profit!  I sold them for exactly what I paid.   .

I still felt ok about it though, as the kickstarter in itself was pretty entertaining. 

Anyhow, I hope Monilith can keep the October release date...I can't wait!

Those 20 pieces of plastic paid for the rest of my Zombicide collection, S1-3 :D  The deal was too good and I'm not as much of a 'completionist' as I used to be.

From the latest Update:

Q: When will I receive my rewards?

A: Despite the MASSIVE increase in the game’s content, we still expect delivery to take place in October. If there are any signs of this changing, we will not hesitate to let you know.
