These seem to be gaining steam, anybody have any interest especially with the GI Joes 6 inch line not in the foreseeable future!?! Anybody have more info on availability and pre orders or anything? I do want to buy and see in hand for sure but from pictures they look like a pretty sweet alternative and hopefully they sell well, we could potentially get great playsets with these or vehicles etc. what do you guys think? Sorry if this was brought up in advance I didn’t look my bad

I backed the Kickstarter. Really hoping it gets funded. The guy that’s doing it used to work for Hasbro and worked a lot on the GI Joe line. He said in an interview I saw that he has more waves planned as well as alternate versions of all the characters. He’s not sure yet if he’s going to do another Kickstarter for wave 2 or be able to find it based on the success of this wave. It also depends if this wave even gets funded.
They also revealed that the Kickstarter exclusive is Steel Brigade from GI Joe. I saw somewhere that he’s working on getting the rights to more characters that Hasbro is doing nothing with.
In the interview I saw he also said if the Kickstarter gets funded, he’s definitely going to have some extra stock produced to sell, but he was urging to back the Kickstarter because nothing will happen if it’s not funded.

That’s cool good to know I hope these happen they have some serious potential

They look really cool, but they have a long way to go to meet their goal in 21 days.

It’s a great creative thought imo If everything gets funded and all stretch goals get met, there’s like a total of 16 figures. Plus with some masked alternate heads you can have some army builders.

Most of these Kickstarters are 30 days and get funded (a lot of times way past goal). His only issue may be that the initial goal may be a bit high. However, Army Alphas failed to find the first time. Then they did some retooling and adjusted and restarted the Kickstarter and went way past their goal. There’s nothing stopping him from trying again if he doesn’t get funded.

Didn’t wanna bump an old thread but since this is new info on the same topic, it didn’t make sense to start a new thread about it. After not being funded the first time, the Kickstarter was rearranged and relaunched the other day. It’s almost 70% funded already and a lot better this time around.
I don’t have the link handy but definitely look up Action Force on Kickstarter. He’s even got stretch goals for troop builder figures this time.
