Hero Forge 2.0 Kickstarter is live and kicking. Fully funded and unlocked all stretch goals with 30 days to go.

$39 for one mini, $75 for two, $149 for four, $219 for six, $350 for ten, $5,000 for 125, $10,000 for 250 (and yes, people have backed those last two levels!)

It does look kind of awesome, although I'm going to assume that the example they give was touched up. My only concern is that I already spend too much on minis already.

The 3D color ones look similar to wizkids, but a bit better. For those not following the link, it looks like $40 for a 3D printed color one, $150 for hand painted, and $40 for a token. And expect long delays to get your mini. With that many backers, probably more than a year waiting

There are several photos on the KS page, of course it's impossible to tell if they've been retouched or if the final product will look the same as the prototypes but hopefully the photos are representative.

I am surprised that they are offering both hand painted and colour 3D printed minis.

I am not surprised that the hand painted minis are very expensive.

Wow! This thing is already over a half million!

They show images of the 3d color printed and hand painted ones side by side. I am guessing the 3d printed ones are not touched up, but could be wrong. However, it is hard to tell what these will actually look from a small image vs having it in your hand.

Of course the real deal is the $10,000 dollar pledge level which gets you 250 minis, + other stuff. There are only 5 of those so grab them quickly!

I'm not sure if it is by design, but the pro-painted miniatures are not impressive.

They look good to me.

Better than I can do anyway.

Oh I disagree in general. Some of the side by side images from far away make the pro-painted minis look worse. But when you get a close up they are much more detailed with more distinct shading int he pro-paint style.
