Backers are voting on printing and size options. My opinion is option 1, keep it in America and potentially two months sooner, not that easy to store a super massive book also. Option 1 is probably plenty big.

Option one is actually printed in Canada ��

I was incredibly disappointed with them when they revealed they could not deliver on the 13.5 x 14.5 size.

I was equally excited when Regent confirmed that they could deliver on that size, and still on budget. I tried not to appear biased in the update, but I will be candid with you all here. Option 3 is by far the best bang for your buck, if you can stomach the 2-3 months added for reviews and shipping.

Stomach it? Just 2-3 months?

I agree it’s more bang for the buck, and kickstarter delays would be no surprise, but it’s still sending the money to a communist country that wants to overtake the u.s. as the strongest world power (and all in the name of a patriotic toy line).

Course, we buy stuff from China all the time, maybe that’s the bigger problem.

But I’m just one vote, that’s my opinion.

Option 3 all the way!

I voted to keep it in North America, even at the cost of a smaller book.

I mean, it seems the only thing option 1 and 2 have going for them is geography. We're all used to delays at this point, so the press check ability is the biggest concern, IMO. I've bought just about everything 3Djoes sells, so I'm comfortable leaving the standard of quality in Carson and crew's hands. So if he's still willing to take the risk...

I voted for option 3 (just going selfish reasons and ignoring budget benefits).
* Proven quality with the Star Wars book anecdote.
* No separation of the figure and its respective file card.
* Dimensions that resemble what I picture when I picture a book. It bugs me when they lean wider on laptop screens and books. Wide books remind me of the baby books I read to my kids. I want this to feel like a book... long after China inevitably takes over the US and we eventually win her back.

Lol, I have like hundreds of figures on preorder from a half dozen sites, some of which are over a year out. I won't even notice 2 months extra for this.

Hello,

With the pandemic, I went MIA with the joe community, so I missed your Kickstarter project. Can I still join?

Thanks,

Martin
