Yes, I really want this too. I'm shocked that it wasn't part of the initial plan.

To be fair, suited females were a complete surprise that was only revealed when they dropped the backerkit.
Plus, you get two different torsos, heads, and all the gear. Maybe they’ll get to skirts and legs later, but I think we got a lot out of the gate.

It is nice we are getting suited females, but, to me, I would have thought a skirted set of legs would have been automatic if you were going to do one.
But I'll take what I can get for now. I've been very impressed with his Valkyries (I've bought about 6 different torso and legs combos since he debuted them on the site a few weeks ago) and will keep supporting him as long as I'm still collecting 1:18 figures. It just seems like a missed opportunity that will take a year or so to come around again.

Oh, I’m not complaining at all.. but like Zap said, I’d prefer the selection and compatabilty (not to mention price) that MJ will have. Perhaps a new lower torso with the skirt and bare legs will be offered in a future assortment?

To me, they were just going with the most direct female analog to the male suited figure, which was a Secret Service/Men In Black/Matrix Agent character, rather than a civilian businessman. Skirted legs would look less combat-ready and the articulation would have been hindered. I think they made the right call with which legs to do first, but your mileage may vary.

I got to talk to Marauder John for a little while yesterday and check out a lot of the stuff from this Kickstarter. Firstly, the Marauder crew are all great guys. Friendly and passionate without being overbearing. Secondly, everything looks incredible in person. Here are a couple things I found interesting/noteworthy.
The suit jackets do indeed open. However, there’s no detail beyond where the jacket covers. I think this has been covered before, but it was neat to see in person. The detail on the swords and scabbards is really impressive. I think people are going to dig them. I don’t want to speak out of school, but John said these would be shipping to backers around the end of September and then going live on the site in October. If I got that wrong, please correct me. Also, there will be more colors for just about everything that haven’t been announced. I’ll leave that for the MTF guys to reveal.

I guess everybody got their own set of secrets haha. I think there’s only one other thing he told me that hasn’t even been hinted at anywhere that will probably excite a lot of people, but again, I’ll leave that for MTF.

Besides piecing things together from google searches, is there any place that shows comprehensively what might go up on the site in October (after the Kickstarter stuff is shipped)?
He told there were several new female heads coming as part of this wave, but I can only see the one with sunglasses when I search.
