Sorry you're not happy with the direction we are headed. You are also assuming that what was shown was the full wave 2, it was not. General Brown will be offered in his gold outfit, as well as a few other additional characters.
That said, the direction we are going will have new characters sprinkled in with the original characters. we've been very up front with this plan from day one. In our storyline the original characters are in their 70s, so at a minimum we'd need to do new head sculpts for the original team, but for wave 2 we are using existing tooling. You'll see OG Eagle Force characters like Harley, Gen Mamba, Savitar & Big Bro in future waves for sure, there is a reason many of those characters are featured in the handbook. As far as names, yes some of our characters will have the same names as existing Joe characters, but so did the original line...remember Wild Bill. We're only planning doing this when it makes sense for the character. Sorry to loose you as a fan...thanks for supporting this project along the way. I will continue to keep an eye on the project and if things improve for me, we'll see what happens. I would love to see the characters featured in the handbook produced at some point. |

I have been following this project for a long time. I never had any attachment to Eagle Force as a kid save for a few knocking around the bottom of the ole toy box. Therefore I have no real want and desire for the gold unis. Sure they are cool and I am excited about them and I guess I do want them, but what got me hooked on this FM stuff is the imagination, the added characters, the public domain heroes. Now with seeing Bronze Bombers and COPS mixed in my excitement lever rises. It reminds me of being a kid again, with Flint, Han Solo, Cowpoke (the Mexican Cattle Rustler) and Whispering Willie riding the big Tonka jeep through the garden down to the hill of rocks behind the pool to take on Cobra and a bunch of outlaws. The mixing of various properties long forgotten and melding them into a shared universe full of emotions and most of all full of fun is exciting. I still have that jeep, and now it will be The Cat, Black Terror, Jurassic Sam and Officer O'Malley taking to the rock pile to thwart evil doers. While disappointing how the delays seem to always find us, the awesomeness to come far outweighs the dismay of empty shelves.

There's more mixing in Face the Fear; I'm also trying to use these different, quirky characters to introduce new genre elements into EF, like the supernatural and costumed heroes, but only sparingly enough to make them feel special when they do appear.

So, what you're saying is more GORE GILLS? Makes perfect sense. He is, by far, the best character in the mythos, second only to..well, to none, actually.

Why didn’t the Cat figure out the table salt gig? I thought the Cat was top notch.??

So Gore Gills outwitted the Cat. If I were the Cat I wouldn't stand for that and I would be plotting revenge with a super soaker full of salt water.

Just got RIOT Commando in the mail yesterday and it's a honey! A black clad, gun-toting honey of a figure. Be sure to catch one if you haven't yet. He's an indicator of how the final line is gonna look, and it's a good look.
Also, I got the metal cards for the campaigns in and will send Kickstarters off (FINALLY!) this weekend! C Last edited by drawnword; 12-01-2018 at 11:50 AM.. |
