By now, we're sure that you've heard of our line of Bones USA miniatures. Since launching our Bones USA product line in
2021, we've sold and given away over 100,000 miniatures injected with our Bones USA process! Wow! Thank you all for
making Bones USA an incredible success! If you're new to Bones USA, read on!
Q: What's Bones USA?
A: If you haven't heard of Bones USA, let us explain a little bit about what it is and what you can expect from this
amazing process.
Bones USA is a new production process we're developing that utilizes an injected thermal plastic to make figures. The
equipment we're using is SIOcast out of Spain.
The SIOcast machine injects melted material into the cavities of a silicone mold. The results are impressive, with the
plastic castings holding an incredible amount of detail. We're developing the production processes, molds, and
procedures so that we can utilize this new technology to its fullest extent.
Currently we're still in what we call our beta production mode, which means we're still moving things around,
experimenting with molds and various techniques. For example, check out the photo below of the layout for our new Base
Boss inserts – not your standard mold sprue by any stretch.

Q: So, is there a new Bones USA product line?
A: Well, yes and no. Bones USA is a process and not a product line. Initially the Bones USA process will be used in two
new product lines: Dungeon Dwellers and Reaper Legends.
The #30000 Bones USA line of miniatures will now become Reaper Legends, a multi-genre line for painters, roleplayers,
and tabletop gamers. The name of the line is changing, but all miniatures and SKUs will stay the same.
The #7000 Dungeon Dwellers line will focus on fantasy figures and compliment the new Dungeon Dweller adventures we've
been posting on reapermini.com. All new and future models in this range will be in Bones USA, and all existing models currently in metal in Dungeon Dwellers (07001-07031) will eventually transition to Bones USA later in 2022.
Both Reaper Legends and Dungeon Dwellers will feature brand new miniatures from your favorite artists, as well as
existing miniatures from the Dark Heaven, Chronoscope, and Warlord metal miniatures ranges.
Currently all products produced with the Bones USA process are packaged on Bones USA blister card packaging. However,
very soon you'll see each line packaged on their on unique blister cards.
Q: Are we going to stop metal figure production?
A: Heavens (pun intended) no. We have metal miniatures scheduled for all of 2022, starting this month!
Q: Are you going to release existing Bones Classic, Bones Black, and metal models into Reaper Legends and Dungeon
Dwellers?
A: Yes! Take a look below get an idea of what's coming out this spring! (Listing subject to change)
