* Kickstarter exclusives are still forced to follow the usual manufacturing minimums, potentially leading to situations where we have hundreds (or thousands!) of units in inventory and no way to sell those items. We can sell to the Kickstarter backers, yes, but then we watch as those are taken to eBay and fans who missed out pay two, three, four times (or more!) than if we could have just offered the item for sale to everyone.

Kickstarter exclusives are good and bad. We experimented with an exclusive for Shakespeare, and now we are planning a Munchkin project where we take a more long-term view of the product (and potential expansions and accessories that may be unlocked during the Kickstarter project).

Thank you for your reply :) At this point, any further discussion would be pointless, and i guess we just need to see the end results of this campaign. As for now i'm pleased with what i've got from your kickstarter projects, and am willing to put trust into next campaign.


Also could you please send Steve to Poland? I'd very much love to meet him in person.



Not that i have special dungeon cell prepared for him or something like that...
