Just curious how many of us who hang out here ordered the Reaper? I know of the following (anyone else who wants to add their name to the list so we have an idea of at least those of us who hang out here.

Good idea, because I am really afraid it will not hit the target.

Nobody else? That's depressing. I don't like our chances. Maybe when Catgirl starts arriving and people see it in person that will help, I guess we still have about a month. Come on guys, let's support Frazetta stuff as much as we can.

I will pass on the Reaper. I won't just blindly buy anything which has the Frazetta stamp on it. And I'm not saying, there is something wrong to support a company which brings Frazetta's art work to life, but my space is limited and I will only aim for statues, which really and totally amaze me.

I understand and that is actually pretty much how I felt and don't fault anyone for passing, I just think if we want to continue to get Frazetta stuff we may have to support it if we can. I truly wish we would get Silver Warrior and Destroyer or even better Nightwinds, but for whatever reason companies either just continue to put pieces out that have already been done or are certainly lesser pieces. I have no idea why.

Its a lesser piece for sure but really well done, better than the original art which is just a sketch. I like to think thats what it would have looked like if fully fleshed out. Its just badass in its own right, as well as ode to Frazetta.
I’m worried also that it wont get made. Ive been making posts in Facebook statue groups, but its like preorder came and went now all is quiet-

Can't remember if this was posted, but they did a kickstarter project for some Frazetta prints, a very cool Christmas sweater and some other stuff. The prints were $125 each or $325 if you bought 4 of them. They looked to be very good quality, but at the time it wasn't in the budget. I was looking at ebay and someone listed two of the prints plus a pin set for $75 or best offer and free shipping. I offered $55 and he accepted. Not too shabby. It would have been $280 originally.

I got the Barbarian and The Huns prints. I even managed to get an extra pin. It was a 3 pin set and I got 4. I'll post pictures once I get these framed.

A really nice repaint of Dark Kingdom. I asked but he didn't say who did it. Unfortunately plate only signed by Frank Jr but otherwise one of the best I've seen

I would love to see these in person and look forward to your pics. One thing they are larger than the old prints at 2' x 3' so would be a headache to change out with my current prints but if they are a LOT better might be worth it.

cool if it isn't too much of a pain could you maybe post them side by side with any original prints that you may have so we can see the difference?
