This sounds too good to be true and looking at the calendar...
I hope this is true and not an elaborate April Fool's trick, but I've learned to take news that gets posted on this day with a grain of salt.
The figures look awesome, the number of modular accessories is great, everything about this is top notch, but I'm waiting until tomorrow to get excited

Trust me, this is legit. I've heard through the grapevine that they have been working on this for a year. Here is a comment from the Kickstarter page
Quote:
The key advantage is that the prototypes are FINISHED and TOOL READY, so we don’t have to go through the sculpting stage, review stage or prototype stage…those stages are complete. If we reach our funding goal, the factory is given the “green light” to start tooling when the prototypes arrive (they will ship to the factory the DAY we reach our funding goal). This is our 2nd project with the new factory and we worked through any issues with the production process with our first Kickstarter project.
We have a target avail date of December 2014. That allows approximately 8 months from the end of the Kickstarter project to us actually shipping product. As mentioned earlier, the ONLY part of the process left to do is the actual production. All designs, all prototypes, all paint masters are COMPLETE, so the 8 months will be devoted to making the production tools & producing the actual items.
