Get Up To Double Your Hobby Dollars Back on Patreon!
We have two tiers over on our Patreon that are awesome (but limited): the Supply Drop, and the new Monthly Miniature Drop!
Both give great value and include shipping to you Worldwide and Patreon fees which we normally take out 20% from pledges on the Miniature Crates. These reward tiers give more value back for less choice of contents, which if you ask me is half the fun anyway.
Who doesn’t like cool surprises?
Miniatures of the Month Crate:
- Miniatures of The Month Crate: $60 MSRP for only at $45 sub price– Also includes shipping & patreon fees so you get $60 in stuff shipped to your door!
- Generally, it will contain one squad/or large model (like a vehicle or big monster), and a Character model. Sometimes depending on value, it could even contain two large characters or monster-type models or a larger squad.
Example of Miniature Crate’s Curated Content(s):
HeresyLab Assassins Set: $45 (HeresyLab), Primaris Captain: $35 (Games Workshop)
Both options would also come with Ad-Free Spikey Bits, discount codes, and the lineup of free promos to new subscribers as normal!
Supply Drop:
- Monthly Supply Drop: $200 in MSRP for only a $100 sub price: Also Includes Shipping & Patreon fees so you get $200 in stuff shipped to your door!
The Double Dipper:
