Lots of pessimism in this thread let me try to even it out a little.

I personally backed this when it was on Kickstarter for $35 and do not regret my decision. I have used FontAwesome in the past as well as a few other free alternatives. While the javascript-less-ness of FA is nice (Iconic has a webfont), the quality of the icons themselves and their level of customization comes no where near Iconic. Many people have mentioned the multiple colors on 1 icon but I haven't seen anyone talk about the ability to easily theme all icons with just a couple lines of css, which makes the multiple color thing more appealing.

Additionally, Iconic is available as Webfont and PNG if so desired. They are also working on a number of additional features that I find interesting (bottom of the features page https://useiconic.com/feature-index/), specifically ExtendScript for Illustrator and then generation via Grunt.

I am pleased with my $35 purchase and have no reservations about paying the $99 for a commercial license if it fits the project (like any icon set you choose!)...However, for those who haven't had a chance to try it I really wish there was a cheaper/free option for experimenting.
