Hey, guys!
I've been swamped with the new semester and getting WAR out, and also gearing up for the fifth EF Pulp launch tomorrow.
I can't speak for Bill directly, as I more or less work on the Eagle Force stories and not on the toys themselves, but I personally know he wants nothing less than the best action figures possible. It's safe to say you're not the only ones waiting to get these babies in hand!
Let me share a story with you from one of my non-Eagle Force campaigns: I had everything print-ready for the campaign by the time the KS funds came in. The vendor I used for finishing actually went AWOL for a few months, in between promises of delivering the final product while literally sitting on the entire print run.
Not only was I freaking out on my end, because I'd put a ton of hard work into the product, but I was also more frustrated on how it would look to my backers. In that situation, I did everything I could to notify everyone about the delay; things eventually worked out, the product came out AMAZING, and backers were happy. But, man, that one final link in the chain put me in a really tough spot as a publisher and Kickstarter. There were times where ALL I could do was communicate to let them know I wasn't giving up on the final product.
What I can also speak to is that I still believe in these figures and in FMF's ability to make them happen and happen beautifully, when they do. Otherwise, I wouldn't keep cranking out novellas and trading cards, nor would I have any intention of stopping. So, while I can't speak to the factory situation, I can speak to the fact that I plan on building my corner of the Eagle Force Universe for a long time and still have my corner in my office reserved for the ginormous wave of figures when they do make it in.
Best, Chris
