Your kids are super-mutants if the BFS shoulders are 'easy' to pop off, Zap.

The suit hasn't even been sculpted yet, so there's time for feedback to be taken under advisement. It seems the main concern is that a soft jacket over the rigid torso would be too bulky, but I suggested in the comments that he make the torso piece intentionally thin and sucked in and completely skin over it in soft PVC. The sucked-in pseudo torso, having no detail of its own, other than the neck, could be re-used for other, future coated or untucked torso designs to be skinned on top of in soft plastic.
By the way, the dress pants are going to be a different sculpt from the Contract Ops pants. He's going all out. New tooling just to have pleats rather than flat fronts!

That's cool. I just figured we'd all go for the Agency-Ops and stop there.
Question for the experts in the room: So, I assume that even if they aren't unlocked, at some point the "chrome" option will hit the store somewhere down the line. Now, admittedly, I know jack about the chroming process. Can any piece be chromed? Even something like a grenade loop or "C" clip? And, if so, am I right in assuming chrome pieces would carry a different price tag than the other colors? |

I'll be very pleased if we get to the "gun metal" exosuit. Thrilled if we get it all (I don't need an army of Chrome MTFers, but a few pieces could be fun.
I do have a question though: If I've pledged "all in" can I pledge the requisite amount of money beyond that for a "Pick X" reward level as well (for instance a "Squad Builder" on top of an "All in?" Or does any "add on" beyond your original pledge level have to be individual items? I apologize if this was asked and answered before, but it was a thought I had while pondering my final purchases this morning. |

I just did, did, did Pledged at All-In. I wasn't going to but the agency-ops sold it for me. I was All-In on both MTF & Vals and I know MJ does not disappoint. Tally-ho let's get em unlocked |

I just upped my pledge from $69 to the $135 level. I'm not too big into the EXO Suits, so I'll just pick 6 of some of the other figures. The dogs and the contractors are great. I'm really hoping we get to that Assault-Ops Valkyrie-that would make a cool desert Scarlett, and obviously the Agency Ops, because we could all use more suited 1:18 figures. IF we get up to those chromed figures, that's gonna do some wallet damage too.
