However the Kickstarter idea does very much give the customers the feel of a more personal stake in the project. It also puts the success of said idea directly into the hands of the fans. |

That looks pretty interesting? I tried to read it all, but did it say how long they will be doing this? Once finances get a little better, I'd like to contribute. Also, can you donate in more than one tier?

Looks like it'll be running for a month and yes sir, it does appear as though you can make multiple contributions! The higher the donation, the higher level of schwag you get in return.

I'm a bit confused on the "stretch" goals.
A lot of the items are weapons that are already available/have already been done. Some of them say "Update" which I assume means they'd be exactly that: A remolded/redone version of an older weapon, but what about the other ones? Are they all going to be "new/updated" items or is it just adding already-existing items to the packages if they reach that level? So, if MJ gets more than $17k that just means that he tries to get to the next 'stretch' goal. |

I'm down for a contribution. I love Marauder's stuff and want them to get new stuff out sooner.
Let's hit those stretch goals. I want the sheathed Wakizashi and Katana (@96K), the "Reb" for all my older POTJ Rebel Troopers and Death Star Troopers (@$140K), as well as that bow and arrows (@$315K), |

Think about it this way the goal of this s the get the next wave out sooner than later. $15.00 plus free shipping for the next wave really is not that bad. people pay that already it's just a way to get these out to you sooner.

Hey! Thank you for the support! Just think of the Kickstarter promo as a large "pre-order" with a HUGE upside! We want to deliver as many of your requested items as quick as possible, and with your help we can do it!
The project lasts another 29 days,so there is plenty of time. We put some "stretch goals" in place that if hit, will allow us to provide a LOT more items. In addition, there are several other items not mentioned in the kickstarter project that we're working to get ready that can possibly be added to the current packages (at no additional costs...we're just working to get the costs reduced on the additional items). Again, thanks for support! MJ

Hmmm?? I've never purchased anything from these guys but always have been curious to about there products!! I guess the best way too find out is to help in donating for a good cause!! I didn't see a time limit so I hope they can wait till I get paid because I'm looking to send them $100 their way ;)

Good to know Xenos. I was going to wait until payday but knowing that I'll go ahead and show my support now.

I believe the stretch goals are goals set if the project gets more money than the $17k needed. I just had a friend do a kickstarter for a Christmas CD that was similar. He needed approx $1300 but said if it got past that and into 'x' amount of money he'd have additional goals and rewards.
So, if MJ gets more than $17k that just means that he tries to get to the next 'stretch' goal. For instance, one of the stretch packages includes an A-9 pistol (The "Robocop Gun"), which is a pistol that Marauder John has already done in an older series. Does this mean he's putting one of his old A-9s in the package if we reach that goal, or does it mean he's resculpting a new A-9? The same with the Mac-10, SOCOM Pistol, "SWAT CQB" (UMP 45) and more, all listed under "stretch" goals. Is he talking about new versions of those being made if the goals are met, or just adding some older items into the swag pile for folks? I assume the items that he specifically mentions as "update/updated" means he'd do a new version, but it's not as clear with the other items. |
