Oh, for sure. But if that deluxe set didn't exist, how many people would have just skipped Conan entirely, like 'nah, if only there was a more expensive deluxe version with a few extra weapons that don't even belong to this character!' I imagine probably like... none. Not to say no one cared about or bought the deluxe. They absolutely did. I'm only saying 'if they hadn't done that AT ALL, would it have negatively impacted sales?' I don't think so.

I bought two deluxes. But yeah, if they didn't exist I would have bought two regulars without any kind of thought of wanting a "deluxe" release instead or anything like that.

One thing I noticed is that when I bought my deluxes, they were $62 plus change - but now it's 74.99? Maybe there was some kind of early bird pricing going on? Wondering if anyone else had the same?

Been keeping an eye out for a few of these figures on eBay so of course the algorithm is keeping me well informed so as to part a fool with his money, but I just got a notification about an auction for Krieger and the seller has misspelled his name in such a way that it sounds like an absolute slur and I may never look at the character the same way knowing that someone out there thinks that is how you pronounce Krieger.
 
Definitely don't want anyone posting slurs on here, so just take this as me ruminating rather than actually asking, but I can't even imagine what slur lines up with any reasonable pronunciation of Krieger.

(Guessing an e was accidentally replaced by a g?)

I guess "no" but is there any word from Harvinger on:
1) Release date for that dwarf?
2) plans for other dwarves?
3) plans for generic barbarian bodies?

Even then.. that's a stretch for it to be a slur? I guess maybe if you squint. The hard K at the beginning helps. I dunno.

1.) No.
2.) Not definitively. I believe they said during some random livestream that there's more. But no hint on when or what they'll look like or anything like that.
3.) The last I heard was them specifically saying no to generic barbarian bodies because of paint issues. Seemed like a lame excuse, but they've stuck with it so far. So... I wouldn't put money on it happening. If we're lucky maybe we'll see a figure with fewer accessories. More like a 'Savage' than a 'Slate' from the first wave. But they haven't promised that either, so maybe nothing.

I got in early with a $62 deluxe as well.
 
An image leaked from overseas of two barbarian humans with some clothing and new heads. The clothing was from the lizardmen huntsmen accessory pack. Savage Crucible hasn't officially revealed them yet, but they did have a post with some text alluding to more barbarians.

“The fire was not meant to be lit… not yet.”
A banner burns. A shadow stirs. And with it, a secret long held is prematurely scorched into the light.
Though the veil was meant to lift at Wonder Festival (Shanghai) and Titans Toy Expo (Tennessee), fate has chosen a more chaotic path. We are disheartened……but far from defeated.
Because what you’ve seen? It’s only a fragment of what’s coming.
The storm builds. The Crucible cracks. And soon, they will rise.
Stay sharp, savages. The full reckoning approaches.

I thought I saved it but cant find it now.

They did release this teaser.

Thanks for posting the pic!

They're not doing much for me personally - which is fine since they'll probably be a bit more expensive/HTF and all that stuff.
 
I don't think those leaked barbarians are too interesting. Human bodies (nice to get more), lizardman huntsman clothing/armor, and some new parts (heads, belts, shield, weapon(s)). I love the line and am super interested to see what's next. I wouldn't mind more humans. But their build-outs need to be intriguing. Or at least another accessory pack or two with some cool armor bits.
 
That shield, spear and axe are from an accessory packs too. The swords Im not so sure about, it's pretty hard to see them. I think it's 2-4 new sculpted parts max across the two figures from this image. But who knows, maybe there will be a bunch of stuff thats not being shown yet.
