Towards the end of last year I backed a kick starter project called Bricks of the Mouse Guard, and got an email saying they could be shipped soon. Im super excited to get these pieces soon and see what I can do with them but I was wondering if anyone else backed this project?

Hmm. Nevermind the link then, haha. Didn't realize it was top secret.

Yes I did. I'm not expecting to see anything too soon as from what I gather, some of the previous Kickstarters are still rumbling on. Think the original backing page said something about May?
What I am interested in is that despite these types of Kickstarters and 'exclusive figures' (I'm thinking of the Brickwarriors custom printed ones mainly) I see almost Zero prescence of them online (eg Flickr). By the popularity I'm guessing a lot of people buy them, but I can only assume that these people are more collectors or exhibitors, rather than online MOCers, and don't post on flickr etc.
So, I look forward to seeing the LUG use of the mouseguard stuff.

Just confirmed my shipping info so hope to see something in the next few weeks I guess? Was tempted by the 'add-ons' (notably the crates) but decided against it.

Same, i couldnt bring myself to spend 3 dollars on each cape and another 3 dollars for the hood even though the hood looked pretty nifty, crates were cool and collectible I guess but since the accident im on a budget......

Great display. I wasn't aware of the mouseguard stories before the kickstarter so wasn't familiar with the context but I especially enjoyed the crab attack pictures. I'd assumed they existed in a anthropomorphic universe, what with the regular medieval buildings and such, so it was interesting to see the builds involving larger animals (the rabbit carriage and large owl in particular) that seemed to place them in a more regular 'world'.
Nice leaf boat as well.
