How is it on interesting and unique monster features? I can whip up fluff and flavor, but if it's got a bunch of monster designs that are new twists on design I might send em a few bucks.

Also what's the distributions in terms of tier? (i.e. 40% Heroic/30% Paragon/30% Epic)

I count 37 paragon and 11 epic monsters out of 150 total.

What's the starter product for the Midgard setting?

The upcoming Midgard Campaign Setting (out this month) is the best place to start, but there are a number of gazetteers and adventure anthologies. The Zobeck Gazetteer - for Pathfinder but there's a lot of non-edition specific stuff in there - covers the setting's most important city.

Cheers

Out this month or October? Either way I will keep an eye out for it.

They put a few monsters up for preview on the kickstarter. Even after spotting they'd failed at proofing and they fixed it I was ... unimpressed. A soldier with a standard action for normal damage and a minor for low at will (so effectively always on a limited damage expression). Monsters with claw MBAs that there was literally no reason to use. A "highlight" power being Clockwork Resilience or something of the sort that just gave a saving throw with a bonus. Thanks, but no thanks.
