There were 5 pieces that needed revisions from the first batch of tooling samples that the factory sent me. They've yet to send me the revised parts and unfortunately everything seems to be going at a snail's pace.

I’m sorry that the factory has been jerking you guys around. They don’t sound super professional. I’m looking forward to Sectaurs, Adventure People, and Eagle Force, And I know people are getting impatient, but I’m glad you guys are taking the time to make sure we get the best possible figures. I can wait. Thanks!

Exactly why I want to move to China and become a freelance rep for those doing kickstarters and needing someone in country. Just need to learn some Mandarin, finish up a few more debts and family obligations, and then off I go. I can do that among other business opportunities I can do there (I am in purchasing for hydraulics and plan to hit up the factories to rep for them over there back to U.S. sellers).

Oh, and as a person that deals with China in another industry, it's not just toy factories that do things at their own pace. Lots of backdoor bribery and shuffling of priorities to get things made can occur for instance, and if someone with bigger pockets throws extra cash at a floor production supervisor, they can bump your order back or around so it suits their wallets. Just saying China is not America, but these days America is barely America.

Looking good! I just now see how these could tie in with Joes through Cobra La, for those that like that stuff!

Man, I'm superglad I went for a One-of-Everyone set and that this is carrying through. The sculpts look much tighter than I was expecting and I hope the paintjobs continue that standard. These and the Captain Action figures should be very nice inclusions to my playverse.
