Too bad it is not getting support. The 1st wave looked great. I just can’t get myself to start a new collection. I never got into the Sectaurs, although my cousin had them back in the day and they were pretty cool.

For sure they're great figures but I don't think the timing was right for this KS and the creator seems to be blaming it on a lack of popularity now more than a bad choice which I think is a mistake itself. If they're able, I really hope they can make another run at this in late Spring or Summer when it should be better timing. With Covid at its highest ever right now and idiots storming Capitols, people are just very wary of where their money goes. And we'll have enough bugs when the locusts descend on us all, any day now.

At this point I'm not even sure the creator cares if it funds. There's been like zero promotions and very little talk about them. Almost like they're being swept under the rug to avoid dealing with the license. Getting the same vibe put out when the Four Horsemen ditched Power Lords with little fanfare. And I don't want to settle for 6" Sectaurs (if that's even on the table).

So the creator says if this doesn’t fund it’s the end of the line. But....he said before there could be mounts, companions, further figures. So the owner of Sectaurs just says well if this one time doesn’t work then fuck you all? But if this one time does work, there will be figures coming for years? What gives? That doesn’t make sense.

I really wanted it to make it. The timing probably wasn't the greatest (again tied to the license) and as the kickstarter went on Zicatoys did seem to grow tired of addressing the same questions over and over and it does seem that he is satisfied with it just ending. Maybe it could have been talked about and advertised much better. I don't recall it being made a big deal about on their Instagram either. Really disappointing since this wave would have completed the line. Bossfight could be a possibility, but the tooling would be different which means they would remake wave 1 characters and there is nothing wrong with the figures. They are great. I was hoping with Bossfight getting Flash Gordon and The Phantom we would see Defenders of the Earth figures, but apparently they are a separate property and they don't have the rights to those particular linenesses of the characters meaning no Lothar and Mandrake either. Really disappointing all around. Btw I throw out Bossfight only b/c they are working with other licenses not that they are tied to this in any way.

Zica seems to be plagued with these kinds of issues for years. Buck Rogers, The Million Dollar Man, Captain Action and now Sectaurs. Always the wrong time, wrong place, wrong people. At some point maybe it's time to ask yourself "Is it me?"
