Over half way to the main goal, in less than a day!
I only got the email notification about 13 hours ago, and at the time no one had backed it yet.


LOL. I noticed that too.

Even with no O-rings, I chipped in. The figures look fantastic, and I like the idea of the swivel waist (versus the mid-chest ball joint). Marauder hit a home run with the modular vest/webgear/accessory idea, too.

Ohhhh yes, I am in for this. Really hoping we reach some stretch goals, but the first 3 figures already look quite good.

Yes indeed!

Just. so. much. to. love. I will literally be selling my body to get these. [Plasma donations pay $$$ people!!!]

I'd like to think I played some small part - I suggested this to MJ [http://www.joecustoms.com/forums/viewtopic.php?f=10&t=39683&p=460081&hilit=vest#p460081] - probably already well in the works by then, but I think I floated the idea somewhere else awhile back, too. I'm sure others had the same suggestion. And I had no idea he was going for full-blown 1:18 figures - AWESOME. The point is he LISTENS to his fans and comes out with product that regularly wows us .

These do look promising. Love all the detailed gear. Lots of potential.

Seriously cool looking stuff. Getting Boss Fight as his design team is major.

It hasn't been 24 hours and he has 22 out of 30 grand. We may be getting some of those stretch goals.

Really exciting. I'll definitely be in on the 1 figure level at least.

I just pledged $54.

I asked for the three individual figures.

These are so cool. How does Kickstarter work? Do they only take the money once the deadline passes and it reaches the goal? Or since it seems to have passed the goal already, will it get taken out right away?

Since the goal has been met, this is when everyone gets charged. There's still 29 days to accrue more pledges and possibly hit stretch goals.

I'm in! Marauder is my go-to for weapons, so it only makes sense to give them a chance with the figures to handle those weapons! The amount of gear, and the detail on these is amazing!

So many questions...

What is the rigidity/flexibility of the parts?
What does the figure look like deconstructed (An "exploded view") and can it be done easily?
What is the exact size? Not an approximation but a real measurement.

Are there a limited number of Commodore ($195) packages or could you conceivably wait and see if all the stretch goals are met and then jump in at the $195 level to receive all of the free additions?

Also the pictures really aren't flattering. In a way I'm sort of glad for that, because I'm almost certain these will look better in person.

I'm very seriously considering moving up to Commodore status. Those stretch goals look like they're gonna be reached, and I'm greedy.





I step out from lurking from time to time.

I wanna back this.

The figures look great. I'm a little torn on the waist joints. People don't bend there. But on the other hand, a proper torso joint would be severely restricted by some of those vests. Really wish they had rocker ankles, though.

I love the modular aspect of the vests and accessories. Looks like they've even got peg holes on the backs of the shoulders for shoulder armor.
