Awesome! Thanks guys!
I made a video showing the articulation of our figures and its compatibility with vintage o-ring figures. Check it out: https://youtu.be/tEqW9PUkndw |

I do find it interesting that the current one is at 131 backers with 24,600, when the first round had 134 backers at 33k. It's a 4% difference from their goals so far.
I wasn't following closely enough to know exactly what changes were made, besides making a more achievable goal, but I wonder what they attribute the lower $ per back to... and if they regret the relaunch, or feel like they're on track to perform better with the relaunch. Kickstarters fascinate me.

I know they got rid of the multipacks for this new one. But the new one is doing a lot better. It's only at Day 17 or 18 and has gotten 70% of its goal. While the first KS took a whole additional week (7 or 8 days) to reach that same $33K but was only at 66% of its goal at that point.
This one seems to be trending better, though I still think it's going to be down to the wire if it makes it past the goal. Hoping it does!

2 weeks left. What are the plans if it reaches 35k or doesn't make the goal?
My reward is for the first 12 figures. Im getting anxious that only the first 4 may not even fund. If honcho that was going to be the big investor last time is around and is waiting for other people to fund his toys he needs to man up and contribute for real this time.

Is it me or have they actually lost a few thousand backers since a couple of weeks ago?

yes they have lost some money, i've been watching it on kicktraq.
https://kicktraq.com/projects/lothf/...ction-figures/ the first dip in cash was due to some weird scam thing going on, Darren said something about it in one of the groups or pages. i saw 650 down one day this week and we're down 288 today. i sincerely need to know what the plans are if we make or break the goal because we're just barely going to eek to 35k at this point and i cannot be stuck with 8 duplicate figures. I dont know anything about this big backer from last time - if they plan on participating after we fund their toys for them or if they're not participating in this campaign and i dont know if they said anything about continuing to fund figures through backerkit if the campaign funds 35k. im saying, i dont see the reassurances we had for the last one going on and i dont want to assume they're there.

Plans are, if we are funded, to continue heading towards stretch goals through Backerkit. Our goal is to get to every figure shown. We have also unveiled our first of three exclusives, and with Joefest coming up, we are hoping to reach our goal soon!

Cool initiative, nice to see O-ring alive. A bit expensive for me, moreover living in Europe. Best of luck ;) .
