From an email from Dave at Archon

"At the minute yes, we are currently looking into the matter, this ismainly down to the way that the minis were tooled. As this mini was printed on the same tool as all of the other wave 2 mins, this would mean that extra wave 2 minis will need to be printed to facilitate all of the Skittermander minis."

This to me is really bad from a planning perspective as they knew in advance that to satisfy the kickstarter they would need multiple of some minis.

Received another reply from Dave:

This is incredibly bad planning

After many attempts to get a clear answer in which the person kept talking about the number of sculpts involved which to me a sculpt is a distinct version of a model from which many individual miniatures are created so i sent:

"I'm not sure if you aren't understanding... maybe pass me on to someone else?

According to my pledge i am supposed to receive 3 skittermanders

So will i receive

1 copy of 3 distinct models
Or
3 copies of 1 distinct model?

It must be one of those options"

Reply from Dave at Archon:

"I understand you. We are aware that the kickstarter has options for multiple packs of minis, such as the Skittermander. At this stage, we only have 1 available, we have only been provided with 1 sculpt and are only providing 1. We may be able to include more at a later dat, but at this stage we are producing a single model for each sculpt. I hope that helps to clear up the matter."

So we are not guaranteed multiple copies of the same mini even if we have ordered them. This is a joke.

For an All-In pledge (before adding extra packs), if my maths is correct, there are 19 different models which we should be getting multiple of for a total of 58 minuatures, so according to this they are intending to short backers by 39 models. They will have these models in stock as they are selling them separately but they are not sending them to us? And they "may" send them to us in the future? Paizo you need to get on this and clarify what Archon need to be delivering

If you check your pledge on game on tabletop there will be a list there

I emailed and they said theres only one sculpt for skittermanders and would not explain why we were not receiving 3 copies of the model just kept saying they were only sending one, made no sense at all.

I received only 1 skittermander when there are 3 supposed to be from the ks
