Booth is just about to open!
Byte - Kickstarter will likely be the first week of May after I approve production samples in mid April, retail release in September timeframe.
Cyp - Yes  and the deep troll and some other new models at your booth (with Secret Weapon) looks awesome!

Sorry that I somehow missed your question yesterday, Jehan! I was a bit of a zombie after my flight from AdeptiCon being delayed and getting home pretty late.
I did speak to a printer at AdeptiCon who makes card tokens, and hope to have somewhere to refer people to who want to make their own panels. There are also many custom laser cutting services available (and several who I talked to at AdeptiCon) who could cut custom acrylic panels (1/16" thick). I will publish the exact size that I am cutting the panels to so that it is easy for others to supply compatible ones.
As for a "minis only" pledge  there will be "cubes only" sets that come with 12 cubes instead of 8, but no panels. So, if you wanted to make your own panels, this would be the theme to select (at the same pledge levels as those with panels).
Thanks for the comments on the booth! The 40k models are painted by Dakka's own Ramos Asura (for whalemusic360, who generously loaned them to me to fly to Chicago) and the Infinity models are painted by Ironbrush Studios.
Now that I'm back and (mostly) recovered, I'm following up on several contacts I made at AdeptiCon to send production samples to to test once they come in in April (Independent Characters podcast, Beasts of War, and the Star Wars: X-wing Miniatures Game facebook admin). Malifaux was highly requested at the con, so I'm also going to be getting to work on that theme

I was thinking more of a clear plastic one in where you can slide in your own paper print out for the "extinct" games.

You could probably just use the frame and use good all plasticard which can be bought in various thickness. Phenomenal product!!!

That is a very interesting idea! I have quite a few clear acrylic panels that I've been using, but I'm not sure how you could glue a printout on the bottom of one facing up, without having the glue obscure the image. I tried a few things just now and will think about it... It would be very nice to have the DIY panels only require a printer, and I'd love to supply clear panels if I could figure out a good way for the printout to attach to them.
I could supply two thinner clear pieces of acrylic to sandwich a printout between, but that still leaves the problem of how to glue the top piece without obscuring the image. If you have thoughts, let me know, as I am very intrigued by this idea as it would be a much more accessible way for people to make their own tokens.
Edit: If people would be more likely to just glue the printout on top of a piece of acrylic, like Hollismason describes, I could supply those blanks very easily (and likely with a few more ModCubes in such a set, because the panels would not need to be etched on my laser cutter, just cut out, which saves a ton of time). Again, thoughts greatly appreciated! If you were thinking of making your own tokens, let me know which method you would be more likely to prefer!

Might want to check to see if you can find the type of glue they are using on the clear bottlecap 1" discs then. I use them on my Infinity chips to make them more durable after someone pointed them out over in Painting and modeling blog land.
http://www.amazon.com/Beadaholique-200-Piece-Stickers-Bottle-Pendants/dp/B00AFRWINA/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1427050851&sr=8-2&keywords=1%22+bottle+cap+sticker
Sticks right to the cut out chits, perfect size too, and still leaves a great view of the piece. They are what I'll be replacing with the mod cubes.

I think that will give them more longevity as the printout will be safely inside the cube for protection from grubby fingers and spilled drinks.
