The ability of Ken Whitman to try and make a buck by screwing people over continues to amaze me.
We've covered the KoDT: 20 Years of Covers book before, a couple of times actually. We learned that Ken Whitman isn't actually making the books himself and they only cost $16.92 to produce......but backers could buy this "limited edition" for only $100, but only until February 5th, 2014.
The thing is there are people who have never gotten their hardcover book and nobody has seen the softcover version out in the wild yet.
If you are one of these people, don't fret.......Noble Knight Games has 17 on hand at a "steal" of only $71.96!
I know there are only 17 because the system will tell you if you try to order more than they have....
Now I wouldn't rush to blame Noble Knight Games because they probably didn't know about Ken Whitman. This......this is the reason this blog exists, to help get the word out. I've heard that Noble Knight Games is taking appropriate action with this inventory.......but as of the time of this post the books are still available for purchase.
2015.11.18 EDIT
We are aware that Ken Whitman has also provided Noble Knight Games with some resin ships, but the quantity seems to be small and it is unknown if NKG acquired them from the Kickstarter, d20 Entertainment Store, or other means. If we get some more detailed knowledge about those ships then we could post about them.
Don't forget he also put up those Traveller models for sale that were supposed to go out to backers as part of another kickstarter
