Someone had asked about the $200 pledge level, and what the artwork looked like...

Here you go. These are pre-coloring.
Lab-Scene-V3-pencil-sketch-bw.jpg Battle-Scene-Sketch-with-Background-bw.jpg Apes-Bio-Sketch-Final-Version-bw.jpg Lions-Bio-Sketch-Final-Version-bw.jpg

And these are the two so far that have been colored.
Apes-Bio-Sketch-Final-Version-color.jpg Lions-Bio-Sketch-Final-Version-color.jpg

The final artwork for that pledge level will be the original penciled and colored artwork.

Enjoy!

Let's look at the numbers:

OMFG had 425 backers over a 30 day period with a total of $15759.
That's an average pledge of $37.08 per person.
That's $525.03 pledged per day.

We're just past the 72 hour mark (3 days have elapsed at 10:45 eastern time on 2/15) for ROTB with 24 backers pledging a total of $1105.
That's an average pledge of $46.04 (BETTER THAN OMFG)
That's an average of $368.33 per day. (WORSE THAN OMFG)
Right now ROTB is about 10% of the way to the pledge goal after 10% of the time has passed. You're looking on pace!

However, some things to ponder:
->The average pledge is $46.04 (better than OMFG). Is this sustainable? Will all ROTB backers continue to be so generous?
->The daily pledge average (with "day" ending 10:45 eastern pacific time. 77.5 hours have elapsed as of this post), the average is only $368.33 per day. This MUST, at a minimum, remain consistent throughout the rest of the month for the funding goal of $11,000 to be met.


OMFG KS ran 90 days. I'm pretty sure they gathered around 4k over the 2nd and 3rd month.
Didn't this start Monday? Monday 10:45am to the time of your post isn't 77 hrs.
I think it started monday but I could be wrong.

Just a question. What if someone want to pledge for both one army builder option and the 2 sets one ? I'm new to Kickstarter so I don't know if you can go with 2 pledges.

Just a question. What if someone want to pledge for both one army builder option and the 2 sets one ? I'm new to Kickstarter so I don't know if you can go with 2 pledges.


I had the same issue as I wanted the army builder and a set of all 4 as well.
This my question:

In case I'll take a army builder set and the 4 painted ones I assume they can be combined into one shipment or do I've to pay bot of the shippingcosts mentioned?



And this is what Jon (Jkaris replied to me);

Ok, so if you are doing this:
Pledge $55 or more
Army Builder Special #2 - 10 of the same painted figure. (International shipping please add $20)

and this:
Pledge $30 or more
All 4 painted figures and sticker. (International shipping please add $10)

I am pretty certain I can ship both for the same costs as the larger pledge.

So,
$55
$20
$30
---------
$105

So pledge $105 and choose the $55 army builder lot as your choice. In the pledge comments, just note that you want to add in the 4 additional painted figures, also which figure you want as the army builder.


So just calculate the total pledge value for the ones you want including the highest shipping costs.
But since you can only select one item you've to note the other items you want and the figure for the army builder in the comment box, which in the end I didn't see so I forwarded these details to Jkaris who added them to the list.

Hope that helped, thanks for backing.

Back it up guys!!!

Yes, I'll add it as a FAQ at the bottom.

If you want multiple reward levels, just PM me and we'll work out a total, then all you need to do is adjust the amount on your pledge and I can make a note on the back side to list all the different packages you want.

$1475 current pledge is right on target for where this should be at the 4 day mark. There needs to be an average pledge of $366 per day over the 30 day period to reach $11,000 after 30 days. Right now it's about $10 over where it needs to be after 4 days!

Good progress!

Well... you could always call a "Horny Toad" a Thorny Lizard. That's what most people call 'em now.

p.s., they squirt BLOOD from their eyes, as a defense mechanism, when dealing with bigger animals. Tee-heeeeee.

Divide & conquer works because of attachments people make to push-button issues, individual "leaders," parties, clans, tribes, policies, or agendas, leaving them open to manipulation.

Yeah the video sold it for me too, that guy is a sexy bee-eye-itch. I will be pledging this payday, i want the gorilla and the toad/lizard/dragon guy.

Since they are already brainstorming wave two, I wanna see more obscure animals, like a puffer fish, capybara, wombat, fruit bat, and a hero shrew.

Hi guys!

The Komodo will definitely have a weapon. The 3d render just doesn't show it.

From a previous post. :)

As far as the smaller figure (Komodo Dragon) being different, he was actually a different body style that was being looked at. He was never going to see the light of day, but based on the feedback here when he was shown, the decision was made to go ahead and run him. If he is successful, then more figures like him (the squat body style) will be made in coming series. In regards to his chest piece being different, from what I understand, the Lion and Komodo will have their chest cavities re-worked to match the Gorilla and Horned Toad.
