HURRAY WISH LIST!!!

so what's on your wish list oh Mighty MORD!!!!!

LGW

You REALLY want me to talk about Gretchins?!?! OK!

Definitely an Orderly!
Futile Targeter... it would be fun.
A Living Battery... AWESOME!!!
Ammo Runt.. ok.
We need a Gobo wearing a Powa' Suit! YEAH BABY!
A Ninja... nice!!!
Goblins/Gretchins dressed as Commissars! HA!
A Sniper... hehehe... armed with a Pea Shoota!

On other points, from Tom's site. Someone posted some info about Black Scorpion Gobbo Pirates (LINK)


While they are cool and all, they seem a little more cookie-cutter to me (and LGW pointed out that they very Napoleonic) . Sure they are cheap; you get 5 gobbos for $20.50 ($15 + $5.50 for shipping). But I like treps offer better. Not only for $10 more you get 6 individual 'piratey-looking' Gobbos, but like LGW put it "We also give a guy a chance to have his DREAM come true."

Well said...



From the indiegogo main FAQ site.... learning more every day.

What if I don’t reach my funding goal?

If your campaign is set up as Flexible Funding, you will be able to keep the funds you raise, even if you don’t meet your goal. If your campaign is set up as Fixed Funding, all contributions will be returned to your funders if you do not meet your goal. Flexible Funding campaigns that meet their goal are only charged 4% as our platform fee, whereas campaigns that do not meet their goal are charged 9%.

Welcome treps. I like your models. I may buy a few of the little guys to add to my pirate ork warband.

I know this is a lot to ask, but I was wondering if you had any more WIP pictures of sculpting them? I would love to see some pics of the steps you took and your thoughts about building up a scratch sculpt. I would like to try sculpting a humanoid model from scratch. Thanks!

We all need to get onto our respective communities and push this project for one main reason:

I WANT MORE PIRATE GOBLINS. AND I CAN'T GET ANY MORE WITH OUT HELP.

So stop being selfish and go buy some SO I AM GET ME MORE!!!!!

oh and you fulfil Bruno's dream of making a Pirate Goblin crew.

So Come Ye Ole sea Dawgs ge't your cutlasses sharpened, find yah Parrots, pistols, and tri-hats. Itsa time to go hunting for pieces of eight.

LGW

treps: Hey, Bruno! Quick question. I want to order TWO sets, but I want them to be shipped directly to someone in Texas (USA). Is this possible? Let me know so I can officially put my pledge... MAYBE I can make Lord Greywolf shut up. WHAT?!? I can dream! HA!

LGW: Just kidding buddy! You scream all you want. It doesn't bother me. You live in the future and I care not for tomorrow!

ok guys just an update.

We need another $486USD to get to the first goal:


If I manage to receive enough support (the $2,500 goal) then the project will be successfull and I will begin working on some new miniatures to expand the range further. Pirate dwarfs being the next ones.

As this is the minimum for me to cover all the costs of the operation when we will attain this goal I will add a free miniature with each complete set.

At this level of funding each complete set (perk of $30 or more) will have the goblin captain miniature included at no additional cost !



If I manage to collect $5,000 then each miniature will be provided with a round 25mm resin scenic base instead of a bland plastic slotta base. This will apply to all perks containing miniatures, even the random one. All complete sets will then be in a collectable card box with exclusive art.

From this point the box set wil include your name (or nickname) as a supporter and will be signed by me.

I'll add to this a set of 6 exclusive green 6 sided dice with a pirate goblin head on one side (design to come) !


If he gets funded he'll start on Pirate DWARFS!!!!!! that rocks....

So come on you Mordheim players, WHFB players, Cutlass! players go check out his project and see if could can be tempted to join in. Remember your helping some one reach their dream nothing is more powerful then obtaining a dream.

Cheers
LGW

NB: I also want to know if I can send a set to some one else as a Gift. hang on I think you can you select it when you pledge your money. you can either have it sent to you or have it sent to some one else.

But I want a set for me and a Set for some one else. can this be done.

@Mord: I'll never shut up and you know it.... I've been spending the last 2 hours posting about this project on as many boards/community sites that I am on.

Citygaurd Forums [A large New Zealand gaming club that has alot of GW-fan boys who play WH40k and WHFB]
Specialist Military Publishing Forums [Its where I post my 6mm WWII [BKC II] and 6mm Sci-fi [FWC] threads a few guys love the project]
Boardgame geek Forums[it has it all and a huge cross reference of gamers]
The Miniatures Page Message Board [made a thread in the Fantasy review and Warhammer sections]

Mordheim
Cutlass!
Low-tech Future War Commander Skirmish
Goblin Pirate Goblin Team
DeathSquad
Warhammer Fantasy Goblin Pirate Army [use them as basic goblins or as leaders]

give me an hour and I'll see what else I can find.

LGW

Sorry LGW,

I don't have a use for them. I've got three incomplete (four if you include my beloved Skaven) Mordheim bands already.

I don't play Warhammer Fantasy (I've got a small Chaos Army and a battered inherited Empire Army though), but if I did it would be Skaven (Clan Skryre with a smidgeon of Eshin not Gobbos)!

But I wish the guy luck with the funding!

Congrats to all the supporters so far we have reached the first goal. Now we need to get to $5,000USD so we get the Resin bases and Goblin dice.

Also we got an update from Bruno:

Yahoo!!!

Thanks to YOU, all the supporter of this project, the first goal has been reached, every funder getting a full set ($30 or more) will receive 6 figures in each set.

I will update the home page of the project later today and will announce some new stuff by the end of the week !

Stay tuned for more information from me and thank you again !!!

Some art work they are working on:


Will update later in the week with the goods on what's going to be added to the offer.

based on popular demand the set of dice if now available as a separate purchase for all existing funders. the dice will be green with a pirate goblin head replacing the "1" side. I'm finishing the mockup and will post it today or tommorow on this page.

If you want a set of 6 dice just add $10 to your perk (there is no need to cancel the existing one, just add $10 and it will be fine). The set will be sent with the miniatures post free worldwide !

For those who want more than 6 miniatures you can also choose to add more miniatures to your perk, any funder from the $30 level can add 1 miniature by adding $4 to his order, and of course you can do it as much as you want (you'll be able to choose individually which ones you want at the end of the campaign).

In the same vein if you change your mind and want more miniatures you can adjust your pledge at any time (for example if you opted for 1 set à $30 and finally decide that 2 sets would be better you just have to send the difference, that is $20 and tell me so in the survey at the end of the campaign).

I will send a survey at the end of the campaign so that you can detail what you exactly want based on the amount spent.

There are more stuff in the work but it seems that the summer heat makes all things longer than usual to be done !

Just a reminder what the next goal will offer us:


If I manage to collect $5,000 then each miniature will be provided with a round 25mm resin scenic base instead of a bland plastic slotta base. This will apply to all perks containing miniatures, even the random one. All complete sets will then be in a collectable card box with exclusive art.
From this point the box set wil include your name (or nickname) as a supporter and will be signed by me.
I'll add to this a set of 6 exclusive green 6 sided dice with a pirate goblin head on one side (design to come) !

So we now need to get $2,007 then we get the new bases and a set of dice [I am going to buy a set regardless, and add at least three more gobbos to my band. one each of the generic looking ones,]

A big thx to those who have supported this project so far. With 29 days still left we will see many more goals and offers come our way. If there is anything anyone wants to let me know and I'll see if I can find out the answer.

Cheers
Lord GreyWolf

I am very happy for him.

Pick up another $300 in the last hour. Heheheh...

Surveys would be sent soon.

Is there anyway to still get in on this. I only just saw your postings and I would love some of these grots for my freebooter ork army. Thanks,

Mike

not sure how you could get this but from the creator but if you message me some details I'd be willing to selling mine for what I paid for it.

as I no longer need these for the project I was going to do [eg I have cut back on ALL of my many projects to concentrate on only a few.]

cheers
