I've had great experiences with Chessex custom dice, and for the order side we'd be doing, they're pretty inexpensive. 200-499 custom dice are 50 cents each, plus international shipping and customs duties.

Sadly though, the level of detail isn't enough for something like Oozeboss's awesome graphic.

If you are considering paid Add ons between stretch goals. Markers for the Big Croacker and team dice would be a great thing to have. I haven't seen thematic frogy dice anywhere, though I might be wrong...

Cheers

Yes, I have had thoughts on those to inject a bit more into the campaign but was concerned that they might hold up the production process. I do like the idea of BC prone / stunned counters... I will have words with Pedro about those and think about what else can be introduced in the meantime.

Hey; if we can get the head coach, medic, shaman AND last but not least a cheerleader; I'll be happy as a tadpole
(Meaning; for me, I'm not too much interested in counters, dice etc. But hey; that's just me :-) )

If counters and dice are introduced they will be as optional add-ons. Rest assured, all stretch goals WILL be miniatures.

If - for some silly reason like people not throwing enough money at this campaign - stunned/prone counters and the like should not be made possible, here is an idea how to make easy and affordable counters at home. Basically to take selfadhesive 1 inch expoy tokens, an counter image of your choice and stick the two together. For more detailed instructions and links on what stuff to buy look here:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yp_RYoT9Fz8

Beware, the video is in german, but you will get the idea.

I might just post this in the miniatures section as well.

AND I absolutly love the SHANK miniature!
All around great team, JBone!

I have so much money that I don't know where to stick 'em. I'd be happy to pay for minis that aren't reached.
My gotta-catch'em-all OCD will probably also let me pay for counters etc. :roll:

It's just, for me it's more important to get all the minis than getting other things. Even if I have to pay for them; no problem 8)

(But we'll rather take this campaign to the moon, so in the end, it will be harder to come up with frog stuff to make, than funding them. I hope :D

PS: I asked in facebook but, there will be alternative heads for the four blitzers? or with the new models, there only alternative heads by addon?

Hi... Sorry if I missed your question. I am being asked questions left, right & centre and the occassional one will slip through unfortunately! :/ The new blitzer sculpts will replace the doubles in the team deals so team backers will receive 4 blitzer bodies and a sprue containing 4 blitzer heads. Extra sprues can be purchased as add-on perks and if there is sufficient demand I may consider a second blitzer head sprue. Perhaps this could be unlocked at the Blitzer Star stretch goal level if people are interested?

Thanks for the quick answer.

So 4 bodies and 4 heads, great!

I don't now for the rest of backers, but I think if you put 4 new heads with the Blitzer Star Player, that will be awesome.

Anyway, congrats again for the campaign and extent to Pedro for this amazing team.

I'd absolutely pay extra for tokens, dice, and similar extras.

Not because I'm some kind of lead addict. Okay, I totally am. But also because throwing more money your way helps unlock more stretch goals and gets me more star players! ;)
