It always amazes me how creative and smart the HeroClix player base is. Just take a look at this new Kickstarter project, the ID rings for "oreo base" HeroClix figures project. After someone showed us this kickstarter, we couldn't wait to become a backer, and you should too. Here's what you need to know.

What are ID Rings?
ID Rings are basically a way for you identify your figures on the battlefiend. I've used them extensively in pre-oreo-dial days, and they were great. Having all of your figures with one standard base color simply looks great. It's especially useful when both you and your opponent are using the same figures on your force.

Why kickstarter?
Clearly there's a need for new ID Rings because the old rings won't work on the new OREO bases. It's nice to see someone willing to bite the big one to get it done. I am always pleased to see people take initiative rather than just stand around and talk.

Will I get charged?
Only if the kickstarter is funded. From the main page, it looks like the funding level is set at $3,000, which is a very reasonable amount in my opinion. Take a look at the different pledge levels (at the right of that page) and pledge the amount you are comfortable with -- I think the $10+ levels are the best.

Here's the important part... IF the minimum funding level is achieved, then Kickstarter will charge you based on your pledge level. That's all. If the funding level isn't achieved, NOTHING HAPPENS. You don't get charged, and the Kickstarter project is considered "unfunded."

Personally, I think it's a really cool project with excellent rewards, which is why I'm posting this now. There are few good Kickstarters out there, and clearly this is one of them.

Check out the Kickstarter Page now and pledge!
