Sounds like he thinks international deserves their own set of books!

The International Joes certainly do deserve some attention. YoJoe.com touches on them a bit, but most of the filecards/packaging as well as figure photos are pretty fuzzy. Definitely needs an upgrade. Total Toys has done nice work with Action Force, but when it comes to South American and Funskool figures there is a lot left to be explored. Cobra de Aco, Invasor, the Complan Commandos, the list goes on and on with some very rare and interesting figures that have influenced the Hasbro releases. I'll never afford most of these, but it would be nice to have some high-quality records of them.

With the information so scattered, makes sense to do a separate project in the future.

Yeah, I have the Omnibus and DVDs and backed this All-In.
I'll back anything Carson does and hope the posters get a reprint

Everything I've seen from him is high quality and worth every penny.

International figures definitely deserve their own book! There are a ton and most of them are very interesting! I know this would require a lot of work, but it would also be cool if the international figures had file card translations. I started doing it myself for all of Forca Feral (Brazil's Beast Force sub-team), but need to continue and do the rest.

This Kickstarter is at ~$217,500 and has less than 32 hours to go!
if it reaches $230,000 then the slipcase gets replaced with a clamshell case like the big art book! we need more monkeys to get in on it!
Dang it I'm excited!

$241,185! I'm really glad we got to that clamshell case. I feel like these will be the books that I flip through most often.

Maybe in a few years Carson can have a kickstarter for a hologram or AR version of the figures!

Damn, I forgot about this but got the late pledge in.
