I wish they kept the original scale for the Queen. I don’t need this painters scale version. I will say that the three head options are awesome! The two veil sculpts are sooooo good.

Frogdog's fulfillment timelines may be better comparison than GCE for the items we are getting in Wave 1. Frogdog's timeline was: October 2023 - In pre-production November 2023 - Worked out pre-production issues, factory was preparing samples December 2023 - Samples received ([INSERT IMAGE]) January 2024 - Production complete Late May 2024 - Earliest copies received by backers They were initially looking at getting Frogdog to backers in April, but some delays were introduced (possibly the t-shirts) with fulfillment. So if Red Witches and Screaming God do wrap this month and go into preproduction, we're probably looking at April fulfillment best case, more realistically May/June if development pushes into November, they don't wrap production by CNY, etc.

Oh for sure. I was trying to compare just the Godhand part of it. How long Godhand took for it to finish the final stages. Queen and Godhand are both single-fight finales. Godhand took two updates. I agree. May is the best case.

I have learned how the KDM art game works lol. I must employ Jay to pre-screen the black Friday update, checking for cultured art. lol

The delays are meh to me. I have so much unplayed and unpainted content that if I don’t get anything new for a year it would almost be a relief. I am pretty disappointed with the parasite queen changes, though. She was one of the monsters I was most hype for; her original artwork was so mysterious, so otherworldly, so imposing and horrifying, and the first model seemed to match that spirit pretty closely. This new one though, just looks like another pinup slapped haphazardly on an overdone scenic base. Now, she looks like she’s supposed to be eye candy for the viewer, which just completely spoils the sense of “I am nothing in the face of this nightmare” that I felt from the artwork. Holding out hope that they decide to release the original as well, maybe as a naked release in plastic.

I am also not a huge fan of the upscaled size. This is mostly because it is a true upscale, as it is double the size. It is neat it is a 4x4, the actual monster being bigger is neat. Would have been neat to see something like this artwork shown. Make the monster larger, to be 4x4, but actually create more arms and hands all over the base.

I agree the parasite queen is a bit big... and although there is probably no way to make Adam change his mind on the size, we should be careful not to try. Otherwise around Black Friday we'll hear, "due to popular demand the parasite queen is being completely reworked, people said she was too big and I agree" - future Poots.

I didn’t really take the time to understand exactly what the wanders are. It always seemed like they were a little expensive for what you were getting. They seem like just white boxes to me. What am I missing here?

Oh yeah temper our expectations that you the company set....yeah sure... Maybe Poots should just set real expectations to begin with, he seems to be the only one that really needs to have his expectations adjusted. Plus keep on beating the dead horse of CNY, as if that's not a known thing every year. It was a bit of a meh update, I expect more of the same for next month. Black Friday's update better be awesome, though better not be a lot of COD in there since I don't think there is much left for them to share. I agree though that I liked the older Parasite queen much better, I mean the bigger one is cool, but it's like Kaiju size now. I guess some things will be a bit easier to paint, but also it's like a major project to paint now too. Atnas was huge too, but not nearly as much different detail as this thing, it will take forever to complete. Ugh and the mold line on all the arms is going to be a bitch and a half to scrape off, though maybe that will be a bit easier to do in the bigger scale easier to hold on to.

Production takes a long time, letting people know far ahead of time that CNY may get in the way because of holiday rushes followed by CNY is good communication.

@@sixthsacrifice4458 Hello Sixth! I agree, it is nice to be open about expected delays. However, I am pretty sure all of us long time KDM backers at this point know all about CNY, as this will be our 6th one now? See what I did there. OHH!

Yeah. I am really glad to hear that Pariah and the Wanderers are in production. That is good news. Everything would need to be in production at this point in time to reach that initial pitched timeline. In all honesty, at this point, Poots should just not make road maps until the entire wave is known to be in finalization. Not in production, just in the final stages, like Red Witches currently is. Then we would not need our expectations tempered. At this point, CoD is not going to be Q1 2025. It will be lucky to be Q4 2025.
