Yo’ Joes,
I’ve just launched a Kickstarter to produce a free printed collectors guide for the Visionaries toyline Knights of the Magical Light; we have comic veteran Bob Hall working on some snazzy cover art and Hasbro has given us permission of use to produce the publication. https://www.kickstarter.com/projects...ategory_newest For those not in the know (or thinking of Supernaturals!) Visionaries: Knights of the Magical Light was a toy line released by Hasbro in 1987 and featured a heavy focus on holographic and foil stickers. The figures had a very similar build and set of articulation as GiJoe figures, but a tad larger and haunt ebay lots the world over. We are planning, if this project receives the adequate funding, to keep going and producing free guides for other vintage lines that tend to get overlooked or forgotten, with the manufacturers permission (one idea we pitched to Hasbro was a guide to the Action Force line).

Sounds good to me. Will be nice to have all the info in one handy place rather than on several out of date websites.

Thanks for the kind word everyone and that’s a good question Sperymatt, one that I really should have included on the project page to begin with (and will now hurriedly edit in).
The awnser is absolutely! The publication will be made available worldwide and absolutely free with the exception of a post and packing charge (which we promise to keep realist, we aren’t out to make money). Last edited by OverkillWipeout; 10-30-2014 at 09:08 AM.. |

Good news (no we haven't reached target just yet)!
I'm happy to announce that the scope of the publication has now expanded (as a result of community members contributing material and sources) to include the unreleased 1988 wave of the toy line. |

This sounds absolutely fantastic! I wish you the best of luck with your campaign!!
To All - please note that the Kickstarter is in British Pounds. The current exchange rate, at the time of this post, is roughly $1 USD to every $0.64 GBP. So, let's say that you wanted the Book/pdf and the 2 posters. At the current exchange rate, that would run you about $35, which is a steal in my opinion, considering what you're getting. |
