I considered backing out too, but left it all in. I won't pretend to understand the inner workings of these things, but would've liked to have seen the centaurs front-loaded. I like what we're getting, but am disappointed what was left on the table. Maybe the bakerkit will surprise us, since they're leaving the stretch goals open during that process.

Kickstarter fatigue is definitely happening. Of the 17 action figure ones I've participated in, only 5 have delivered so far. That leaves 12 with out of pock funds around $5,000. It would be nice if at least 7 of them would deliver this year.

It is indeed a weird sensation to pay so much upfront with nothing immediately tangible to show for it. I've put $3000+ towards a handful of KS (and HasLab) projects in the last year, but still don't have anything in-hand. Fortunately two of them should deliver by EOY.

With what's currently Unlocked, I won't have much to add on in the BackerKit. I dunno how to help Unlock more stuff in the BK without closing the BK with the funds for whatever more I order. But I don't want to close it unless I can order everything I can get.
In any case, I can't charge any more until next payday so we'll see what I have to choose from at that point. |

Hopefully, the backerkit stays open for a while to help build towards some of the locked stretch goals. I only had a bit of funds to offer during the campaign. I intend to add more once the backerkit opens. If the Knight of Aperity opens up, then I'll add that one too.

They've not said yet, as far as I can tell. I'd expect it to be a couple weeks away, since I believe (hope) they're going to come up with a scheme to open up some more stretch goals. I believe they set the centaurs late expecting a better initial showing, and the KS fatigue and less interest than anticipated in the horses saw them fall short. I'd be surprised if we don't see some shuffling before the backerkit opens.

I've removed a couple of non-figure campaigns and added in a few figure campaigns that I contributed to on a previous KS account (and that have also delivered, like AWOK). And I needs to be the Captain Action line. They're listed in Campaign-completion order, iirc. What do people expect to be the correct ranking of when we will get stuff? |

I stayed at the all in level once the knight tack unlocked. I am pretty excited by the pegasus/dark pegasus sets, and pretty baffled at the kit selection. I join the chorus on confusion about roman/western gear being core sets rather than further down in unlocks. If there is any improvement on the kits Ill go from happy to ecstatic on the all-in option. Right now I will likly go 50/50 on the kits and hope I can trade/sell them later.
Ideally I would of liked to see a basic centaur option, and the fancier centaurs further down. I am sure they had good financial reasons for what they did, but it doesn't change the fact that half the reasons people were interested in this campaign did not unlock. By half I mean knight kits, and centaurs 3 I do expect to see the elk unlocked in backerkit, and hope more interesting stuff is done as well. I think its fantastic they are including backerkit funds towards unlocks, that is extremely generous. All in all it was a great campaign, and if backerkit goes well I would put this towards the top of kickstarters I am excited about.
