I did see the mercy stream. My 1 and a half year old son woke up just after they started.
I let him cry for a few minutes (mostly to see if he would go back down on his own), but boy was I glad I let him cry 'cause Ron pulled out that sketchbook. Tickled pink to see her in her paratrooper splendor. The only thing I didn't much care for was the balaclava/facemask look. Other than that I'm extremely excited. |

Welp, now we wait. If you need something to occupy your time, I suggest reading Carson's profiles on Ron, Mark and Bill. The amount of amazing figures these have designed is staggering. I'll gladly go all-in on any kickstarter they are a part of. I don't care if the figures come in a brown paper bag, they'll be worth it.

Well, I can say that the fans definitely did their part. Now it’s up to the Dream Team to take it from here.

What a fun campaign this was. Walking back anything I said previously about not backing due to lack of funds or whatever other sour grapes excuses I coughed up at the time, I did eventually fund for what I felt I could afford... "pick any 4 + Retelo". I couldn't NOT back. That felt wrong somehow, especially having been at Joefest and having witnessed Carson' enthusiasm in person. That coupled with sitting in on the Recall panel and hearing the passionate fans who had designs chosen be able to speak on their behalf. All of this really worked on me like a powerful ambrosia. It reminded me of being the friendless new kid who noticed Snake eyes across a school soccer field, and was drawn to that toy like a moth to a flame. I knew I had to be a part of finding out what was going on there. Which consequently led to friendships that I treasure and great memories. Anyway, enough maudlin tear wiping. Great job Carson and team! Now bring on those Recall t-shirts and other merch! I need to display my love of this burgeoning brand in a big way. |

Oh crap I didn't even think about merch.
Hadn't even considered it. Yeah that's a fun idea.

Just out of curiosity, how many people with submissions that made it to this initial year of operation recall are present and active in this thread?
