Beware the Writhing Stranglers!


Age of Worms Adventure Path

Paizo Employee Chief Technical Officer

Earlier this year, the folks at Mega Miniatures asked us if we would like to have some exclusive miniatures for paizo.com customers. After thinking about it for about five seconds, we agreed! Since undead feature significantly in the current Dungeon Adventure Path, The Age of Worms, we decided to do a pustulent zombie infested with writhing worms. And thus was born the limited-edition Writhing Stranglers set of minis.

This set comes with 6 Writhing Stranglers, cast in pewter and limited to an edition size of 500 sets. Each set will be individually numbered. When the last set is made, the molds will be destroyed. So if you are interested in throwing a bunch of Writhing Stranglers at your characters, whether they're going through the Age of Worms or an adventure of your own design, you'll want to get your preorder in soon. Because once they are gone, they are GONE!

Preorders will start shipping the last week in October.


I don't mean to be paranoid, but I received an email that said that my order was sent via USPS Priority Mail on October 27th. Priority Mail, AFAIK, takes 2-4 days. It is now day 4, and I have not yet received them. How long before I scream "the sky is falling" and can tell Customer Service that my shipment is lost in the mail?

Normally, I wouldn't worry this soon, but with a limited edition size, I want to make sure I get my set.

Any thoughts from the Paizo in-the-know?

Same situation here. I received the email some time ago and still no mini's.


I advise patience. Mine arrived 20 minutes ago. They're pretty cool. If only I had the skill to paint them.

Just to satisfay my insane paranoia, could you tell us what date your email said yours were shipped?

I really need help . . .

The USPS advises that Priority Mail delivery times "made in an average of 2 to 3 days," but that delivery times are not guaranteed. Personally, I wouldn't start to worry until about five days.

One other thing to note is that if we completed your shipment after the last USPS pickup, the USPS 2-3 day window won't start until the next day.
