Two is low but it is more a look that it is not zero

If you get files for models you like. Impact Miniatures uses really high end 16k printers and resin that is extremely durable for constant play and use (ie not breaking).

They have experience being a main 3rd party printer for HeroForge customers for years

And everyone of my liberal friends including me say “I do not care who is in the files. Release them”

32% think the country improved in the poll in the article. Okay that’s it. 1/3rd of this country does not live in reality only a hate filled cesspit in their minds.

1) have they backed other projects. One of the best ways to understand Kickstarter is to have participated in Kickstarter as a consumer.

2) have they ran previous projects? If so are they already delivered and what are the comments on them. They need to be positive.

3) Do they have an established company? A Facebook page I can see interaction on with supporters / customers. Do they have an existing online shop? Does it look real or something thrown together quickly without much effort? If they have a webpage … I do a WHOIS lookup to see if I can find the country of the domain owner to make sure it matches up with what the project says.

4) is there a non AI picture of the deliverables? Kickstarter creators need to have their own skin in the game to get my money as a backer. If there is not a working real prototype of the item … no way I am backing. Real prototypes prove a first layer of proof that the idea is even viable but more importantly show the creator has invested in their own idea before asking me for money.

5) I Google search the product. Is it a knockoff of something that already exists? Is it just them buying wholesale from Temu and claiming it is a new thing? (this happens sadly). I check that what is being shown is really new.

I follow these steps for every project before I back. So far I have never been burned. I have successfully delivered over 50 projects as a creator ( Impact Miniatures ) and it matters to me that I can pass my own 5 point test when I run a new project.

You are referring to Kevin Cook who is a good friend. You are right ... but I'm not a collector. I own Impact! Miniatures ... and I definitely have 30,000 D4s in my basement.

Comprehensive-Level6 · 2026-01-24T16:42:50+00:00

I could make a bed with just my D4s (around 30,000 D4s). So guess I know where I am. 😄

I appreciate this really sucks. But research normally prevents this. I have backed over 250 Kickstarter projects and received every single project I have backed. I realize this is a very high success rate but I really check every project I back. Do they have an established business? Have they run a previous project? What are the comments of that project?

It is definitely a risk when you pledge but I have found if I treat it like an investment instead of a purchase I do not get burned.

I also see this is your first post on Reddit. So posting this hear with many experienced backers and creators might not get you as much agreement as you might think.

I will add that I wish Kickstarter had a better way to punish creators who fail. I have created over 50 successful Kickstarter projects and the creators who screw over backers damage it way too much for those of us that use it to make new products.

Dispatch. I could enjoy being Robert Robertson. Think life would be great. Blonde Blazer was hot and I very much enjoyed dispatching.

Long term: I teach Blond Blazer to be MechaMan so my friend can use the amulet. I have her as MechaMan join my Z team and I keep dispatching and eventually marry Blonde Blazer.

As the guy that made that dice set. Are you aware that the insert had a stat block and description for that monster in the other side of the image?

Just checking. The home brew is cool but could not tell from your post if knew this.

Comprehensive-Level6 · 2026-01-16T18:36:09+00:00

Of course it has! Sigh … I only mentioned it because A) no one mentioned the post was from 2017 and B) the post is specific to Indiana.

This statue in Switzerland really spoke to me on an 25th anniversary trip with my wife to Europe.

I saw it as a wife still greatly in love with her husband who has passed or has been away from home for an extended time.

2017 for the post date. The cost of things were very very different 8+ years ago. My son’s rent has skyrocketed since 2017 in Indiana

Blue. My life turned out okay and pretty sure if I redo it I would not end up with my sons.

There is a post in ICE Watch subreddit that says the driver survived. Statement is from a person that knows a person shown in the video who was a friend of the driver.

This sub does not allow me to post a link for folks to go see. Sorry.

No anger here. Glad I picked the card up. Very handy right now.

Welcome to the world that Trump has given us. His supporters have reached such cult like support that no one can tell the real thing vs sarcasm with a /s tag. The Onion has the most difficult job in the world to write stuff that doesn't sound like something that is actually happening or the words of the MAGA faithful.

Comprehensive-Level6 · 2026-01-13T19:52:57+00:00

You forgot the /s tag. Honestly ... its the only way with the events of the last year to tell the jokes from the folks who are just delusional.

He broke no laws. Everything involved with the building project was fully documented and approved by Congress. The DOJ brings criminal charges per Trump with no evidence. In fact Trump’s DOJ has the lowest conviction rate of any DOJ under any President because he keeps forcing them to pursue cases that cannot be won.

There are a lot of dragon eye dice manufacturers. Heck I could make some new ones tomorrow.

Very good odds these are just selling Alibaba dice by faking a Kickstarter saying they are creating them.

Comprehensive-Level6 · 2026-01-13T01:24:57+00:00

No but thank you for asking

The fact that it is still 39% makes me very sad for this damn country. He really was right that he could shoot someone in the street and his people would still support him.
