Timeline updates for preorders and new product:

If you have been watching the stream of pics lately, then this is not a surprise to you, but just in case you missed it, here are some recent notes.

Buck-A-Roos wv 2 is almost finished. Although we were promised delivery before Chinese New Year back in February, some delays have happened. First was having to retool the torso back, due to things getting too far out of spec to fit properly. Most recent is waiting on new nozzles for the paint machine they use for eyes to arrive so the heads can be completed. That being said, we expect these within the next couple of weeks, as assembly and finalization are near finished.

The Mercantile Shop Owner / Keone Young, and Riverboat Gambler / W Earl Brown figures are almost complete as well. These have not been offered in preorder yet, but you will be able to buy these from us first at JoeFest next month in Augusta, and then on our site after, as well as retail partners.

There is two surprise items that will reach us some time some time in mid-late July, but we will keep those cards close to the vest for the moment.

The Modern Texas Ranger and Eagle Force Wild Bill will be completed this Summer. More news as the delivery dates get nailed in place.

Series 1, Wave 2 (Spaghetti Six) was pushed to complete the longer overdue celebrity figures mentioned above (November 2019). As such, manufacturing is expected to be done during the month of July, and we should have them not very long after that. Tooling for the new accs and secondaries has been completed since last year, and the body parts are all pre-existing (except for one set of upper arms) so we expect these to move very quickly, as long as the factory gives them the attention needed.

The "Beans" themed noggins will be completed shortly after the Spaghetti Six, and will ship to us around the beginning of Fall. We will likely not do any preorders for these items, and wait to make them available after they arrive here with us in Dallas.

Cavalry KS items are scheduled to be produced in the Fall, with delivery at the very end of this year. We have some paint master parts, and a few test shots from this lot, and things are moving okay considering how delayed the above listed projects were for us due to Covid delays and complications. The factory will begin chewing this bubble-gum in earnest after they are done walking.

We will put up both wv 1 and 2 of the Headshot Horde (about 4 months apart) before the end of the year for preorder, starting in the very late Summer. These items will not begin shipping to us until next year, likely after Chinese New Year break of 2023.

Weird Western Tales is largely an unknown at this point, as to where and how it will go in the schedule. We still have sculpts for some creatures to complete, and several steps after that to prepare for a spot on the production schedule. The creatures from this lineup are the first projects at our 2nd factory, and are in the tooling process now, so we are working on the creatures that are already completed.

The 4 new celebrity figures have had almost all sculpt work completed. The two female figures will also go to our 2nd factory as soon as the last items are tied up for them. More news as it comes in, and we have signed contracts from all four celebrities and portrait sculpts have begun.

There are other small notes that I will add as they become clear, but this is the bulk of information through the remainder of 2022. Please keep checking back for news, updates, and production pics, and thank you for your patience as we are on the downhill side of these Covid delays.
