They are taking their time, oh yes, tick tock, 42 days until the one year anniversary.

Exactly.

On the flip-side, one of the reasons this KS was so insanely popular was because there aren't a lot of competitors in (mostly) realistic sci-fi females (that are compatible with 40k).

...IF they actually pull it off.

Well, hate to burst their bubble, but Victoria Lamb will soon be releasing her first multi-part female guardswomen kit that is compatible with 40k, they look like proper soldiers as well.

If nothing else, I think they will finally push their troops to market if the money ever runs close to being out. In the hopes of generating cashflow.

If they've gone too long after the AM codex is out, they'll lose a big share of the "purchase by association to novelty" cash, but there will always be a segment of the wargaming population looking to start new armies.

The thing is, I think the roles are confused at the moment. They were a boutique store with a few heroines on offer, and that part of the KS was true to their roots. But then they advertised for a whole army, which then ought to have been the focus... to allow fielding an army on the tabletop. But instead, they snatched that off the table and went back to heroines only.

Make up your damn minds!

I've been waiting on Lamb's, too. Another sculptor who does very good work.

And more than making a whole army, they were making...what? Three? And a game system to go along with it? Why? There are plenty of skirmish game systems out there - just make the models and call it good.

The whole franchise expansion with gaming rules, plushies and the cartoon show isn't until after all of this.

Can't wait for the Punky plushie to hit Toys R'Us...

In hindsight, it's amazing how fast they started talking about other projects as soon as the campaign ended.

I repeat, take the concept artist, and get him to work on the game, instead of trolling us with these images. Or better yet, get him working on artwork for the rulebook. Crazy idea.

Like I kept saying, hubris and whatnot, way too early for that sort of gak.

I'm waiting for the life-size fountain statue they plan on rolling out with the second wave.

What? Almost a YEAR since the kickstarter ended? wow... time surely flies :(

42 days to go, if I checked it good and proper.

BrookM, get on that and get a countdown running.

One day I will back a Kickstarter, the execution of which does not ruin that company's reputation.

That will be a good day.

I'm hopeful about Mecha Front and Rangers Project.

It's not fancy, but it will do the trick.

Kingdom Death Monster is the one for me.

Wait - have you guys even gotten your pledge manager yet?

I'm not trying to poke with spoons, seriously. No manager yet?

No pledge manager yet.

Someone is allegedly working hard on it - the guy who was supposed to be the new Communications Expert or some such.

Oh.

Jeez, I'm really sorry guys.

I'm in on Robotech, but at least they drop us a contentious bone once in a while.

Again, wow. Feeling for you guys.

Ha! You and us, not so much unalike, we're brothers in woes when it comes to KS.

We, the backers of both Robotech and TGG should get together and host a convention.

A convention of no games!

But, lots of alcohol, lots of that.

Not to mention a jolly debate about who has it the worst.

Despite not being a Robotech backer (I did express a lot of interest in the game, but after hearing of the reputation of the company behind it I wisely decided not to pledge), I do follow your thread with interest, not because of the woes, well, maybe that as well, but it's interesting to see how it unfolds.

I follow it as well. I know of Palladium only as "Those idiots who gave MDC to infantry", but I like Jetfire from Transformers, I like Valkyries, and I like the one Robotech movie I've seen, so it's a product that does interest me, even if I didn't buy it.

I'm not too annoyed yet. As I stated the best of the worst is store credit.

After looking at the new AM codex, I've realized that I'm going to completely have to re-work my pledge order, since it was based around getting the girls to field one of multiple different army lists, almost all of which are no longer valid. Sigh.

I wouldn't bother changing your army list yet. Who knows what will happen in the 7th Edition AM Codex?

Mine are just going to be display anyway.

So am I right saying April has had no update?

I'm a little miffed about the loss of Tallarn again.

10th of March was the last one.

I just want my minis :(

Most people feel like that now. I'm quite willing to wait a while longer though if they do release a new KS before wave one it will certainly raise more eyebrows.

If anybody wants to ditch their pledge I'm quite happy to pick any up.

I want to add that Wyrd and the lack of book is more concerning too me at the moment.

As someone who has a $281 pledge towards a project that is largely hypothetical in one hand, and a very non-hypothetical laptop with a blown motherboard in the other hand; this is incredibly tempting.
