I would like to introduce Legion XIV's 1:18 scale project: Suits Kickstarter. The goal is to fill in some glaring holes in the world of 1:18 collecting. These figures are highly detailed and articulated and feature easy to swap parts. The Kickstarter will run from now until February 12th at 9pm central time. Funds will not be withdrawn until after the Kickstarter has ended and only if the funding goal is met. So feel free to contribute early, you can always withdraw your contribution or modify it at a later time. I want to thank you for your time and support on this project.

When I think about all of the suit figures I've hoarded over the years (MiB figures, Professor X, SDCC Destro, etc) I can't believe nobody has thought of this sooner.

I really hope it makes it.

I was just thinking the other day that I wish there were more options for suited figures. I'll be in on this at the stretch goal package.

I really like the setup on this. That dime novel legends KS should have been like this.

I was thinking o myself when my VALs arrived, "I wonder if MTF would do these next time around." Not sure how much I can contribute but I'm gonna try. I still gotta figure out how to get the rest of the Screamerz and Eagle Force that I want.

Brilliant. I'm in. But I wonder, is it too late in the design process to move the torso joint down to the waist/belt level? That would make these perfect!

Good luck!

Get 12 of those Generals and you got the start of Dress uniforms for all the original male Joes.

Thank you guys for the comments and support. ...And the sticky.

The shirt and tie has so many possibilities with different jackets. And with very limited options at this scale it was a no brainer. If you guys have any questions or concerns please contact me about them.

psychoviper, the decision was made for the mid torso joint to better fit in with modern Joes. It's not something we would be able to change this late in any case.

Here is a pic that I made so you could see the 5 basic figures, and the stretch goal I want the most! C'mon Detective! (A fella can dream right?)

I love that Lupin. I hope the Private Security's suit gets a much darker blue, and that he comes with a matching-blue Detective's hat that can be pulled far down over his eyes.

Arn Anderson looks pretty snazzy in that light blue. And the Assassin should come with a bald head.

I have a dark blue suit figure yet to reveal. It won't be a stretch goal, it will be available with the base funding.

I was running low on funds for parts. I have a bald head sculpt I would like to do, but have not been able to. I also did not want a bald head on the Assassin for legal reasons. I'm already pushing it with many of the designs.

Maybe I missed it in the Kickstarter info, but how do the arms swap? Simple pop apart or does the upper torso come apart?

They pop in and out like Ultimate Soldier and some BBI figures.

Thank you! I kept thinking, "Oh that color scheme looks so familiar...who is it!"
