I’m starting think this tariff thing won’t last much longer. Anyway I’m all in on this project and still excited to see the final product. I’m patient and know eventually these will be in my hands.

I hope you're right, but I also wouldn't bet on that happening at all either.

Yeah. Not going to happen. From this point forward nothing related to that will improve.

There were updates in February and March, usually they trickle out on Facebook and Instagram and then there's a big round up of all that at the end of the month as a kickstarter update.

Carson posted another update with some new pics. I'm loving these sculpts. They just look crisp. I was worried about Sol Guerra, but he looks great now. Each revision of him looked better and better.
Oh, and we're getting 20 figures now, not 19!

The one that's had me worried is damselfly. We still haven't seen the actual prototype of that one yet have we?

Not yet. Last we saw was a mock up with a head that had to be resized still.

I know I'll get home heat from some of you for this, but I kind of like the over-sized ARAH-style heads. So I don't mind if the heads look slightly too big. More so for the figures who have helmet/masked heads. I guess I want these to fit-in perfectly with the old ARAH o-rings, so for me personally, those over-sized heads are part of the charm.
Anyways, great to see an update! Can't wait to see these with their decos applied!

the oversized heads remind me of the corps or the disappointment of finally getting beach head and lowlight and their heads are bigger than their shoulders.
the ratio for "whups, hand sculpted too big" and "proportionate" heads is not a good one. i am glad to see that the 20th figure is now available. hopefully it's that one that was moved to the next wave from this one. it isnt a he-man commando, but whatever it is im sure will be a neat idea in it's intention. hopefully in execution. |

I'd be interested to hear different people's takes on which heads are just right from ARAH. I think we all agree on which are too big (Beachhead is a great example) and which are too small (more than half the comic-pack heads, Track-Viper; no way a human head is fitting in there) but it'd be useful to see where the "just right" lines falls for everyone.
My opinion has always been the middle seam line of the thighs is the correct marker for width. As long as the side of the head lines up with those, (ears can go a little past) I think it looks right, with acceptance for helmets of course. So these four look good to me, if anything Mortifero might be a little small for a masked head. Definitely worth watching some of the other figures closely though.
