But, Reaper is doing fantasy miniatures (plastic) and right now, you can get 133 (geared to go more as the amount increases) for $100. Quite a deal from a known company with good products

I can't. Holy shit. That's *great* product. I just un-funded my Relic Knights kickstarter [the game looks kind of shite compared to Zombicide and the other one they just did] to buy this.
The next one on my list is this:

I love Ukiyo-e art. Some of this stuff is kind of twee, and I'm *pissed* that neither the Donkey Kong-themed one nor the Pocketing a Wager made the cut for a proper woodblock print, but I'm looking at picking up a pair of the woodblocks (not the giclees). Probably Fox Moon and Soul Eater, though I may point my wife toward "Hero Rests" for an Xmas gift as it's a nice contrast in color to the other 2 very dark "night" prints.

The Resistance is one of my favourite games ever, but it seems that this incarnation is the regular game minus the plot cards, plus 6 special power role cards. I'm not sure how worthwhile 6 new cards are to me when the game costs $20. There's going to be a PnP "expansion" of 15 new plot cards included, developed by fans, which sounds awesome, but I would much prefer to just get the 6 special roles and the 15 new plot cards in a format compatible with the game I already own. I'm just not sure about this one. Also the new box is bigger than the old one.

I backed that one too. I found a fantastic nearly-new stuffed Big Bird at a local thrift that my daughter took to immediately and has been dragging around every day for the last 5 weeks. (It pays to hit the charity shops in well-to-do neighborhoods for kids stuff; though some day she may ask why all her books have some other kids' names in 'em...) She loves her some Big Bird, so I couldn't help myself when I saw this. (Besides, the Muppets and Sesame Street pretty much defined *my* childhood.)

I'm in for the Reaper miniatures one - it IS amazing. At the $100 level, it's down to something like 75 cents per miniature. Gonna do some serious painting this winter...

As for the Reaper one, my only use for them would be to pimp some games. If it'd all been fantasy stuff, great, but now they seem to be chucking in space marines, cowboys, and any other random stuff they can think of. It's a steal at that price, but I'm not sure I have much use for them.
