Didn't see a canceled payment in my inbox, so I guess I scored both. Joyyyyyyyyyyyy

Got my three! Now I only have to find the blues & green KC...

Ordered and done with these damn AP figures once and for all... until Series 2. Which I will probably skip unless the AP color is so damn good I have to have it.

Someone took a guess awhile back that the October Toys flesh, Kickstarter black, and AP Pink will be the colors in the line that stay the same while the exclusive buyers can pick whatever color they want each series, and George pretty much confirmed that. I will probably try to keep up with the AP figures. I like the S2 designs enough to get them all.

I'm sure Earwig knew there are international buyers when he set prices at $6 shipped and $25 shipped. Selling all the custom figures should keep him from eating too much on shipping overall.

Me too, barring any more "up all night" scenarios. Although there's still the issue of that damn missing Stroll in my set. That gaping hole is gonna bug me forever, I tell ya.

I'm a little late to the OMFG party, but I can't wait for my two sets to arrive in the post any day now (crossing the pond ). I'll certainly be kickstarting series 2 when that's available! If anybody has a 'spare' LRG set I'd love to trade them for it as that would more than do me for series 1. PM me if you have one. Quick question though, why does AP Stroll seem to be the figure that many people want but can't find? Did they release less Strolls compared to Castors, Multiskulls etc?

Many were turned into custom paint jobs. Example are Jkaris' two that look like a He-Man character.

That's not actually correct. The ones I had painted were LRG greens (4 sets! Say it isn't so!). As far as the pink Stroll being harder to get, I believe someone on October Toys mentioned that the artist (John "Spanky" Stokes) has a pretty large web following and that a lot of them bought his artist proof figure but not the rest of the OMFG figures, since they are Spanky Stokes fans and Stroll is his site's mascot. SO there were more people after that figure than were the other figures.

Those people bought them in packs of 5 too and might not ever visit October Toys or know anything about OMFG outside of the pink Stroll. Probably a lot of people with extras that don't realize how many people want them if they aren't already painted.

King Castors have not shipped yet. I have the header cards back from the printers and they should be out sometime next week!

[ersico]

if anyone wants a custom painted omfg set, hit me up and we can work something out

[stoneyface]

has anyone gotten their king kastors yet? i have not gotten either the custom or the AP, i am still kinda bummed i paid for shipping on both and he is not refunding at least the shipping on one of these since they will ship together

No, but I honestly wasn't expecting to see it this week. Maybe he will give you a partial refund on the shipping whenever he gets around to sending them. monsterforge set the bar pretty high with how quickly he shipped and took care of refund issues.

Can't believe a loose Rotofugi set recently ended for under 20$ on ebay. Too bad it ended while I was asleep!

We probably won't see them for a few weeks yet. He took forever to list them for sale, I am guessing that it will take a while for him to ship as well.

No worries here. Glad I was able to snag 'em.

[stoneyface]

my only worry is my move is rapidly approaching and was really hoping i could get mine in and get my "all together" set pic before i had to pack them all away for the move

Just waiting on the last figure to arrive in the mail, then i can show them off. Been slow going on one figure, all the other 4 are finished, molded and cast and ready to go!

Sounds like we get to see series 2 soon. I'm guessing Grimm Gourd is the unfinished one because the original sculpt was too big.

Good news. It's actually moving along faster than I thought it would.

[bizrebellion]

im actualy looking forward to seeing series 2 in their finished castings, as for the Rotofugi set selling on ebay, i was meant to bid on them with a $25 max bid, but i was painting my sons room and forgot about it, its the last set i need too

I can tell you I love how Puke Knight came out. I hope everyone else likes him. I just haven't posted the shots I have. Been waiting for George to make an official reveal.

Oh come on now! Just show us.
We promise not to tell OT you gave us a sneak peek.
Not many people look at pics here anyway.

Great to hear you are happy with the final sculpt. It's impressive how quickly the whole series came together. I wasn't expecting a kickstarter for S2 until after the GITD figures were shipped. I was thinking August at the earliest.

Well most of the figures were sculpted around voting time. I do think it's funny though Shirtle was completely sculpted before the size issue was resolved with the pumpkin. Puke Knight is pretty much the sculpt I already shown just cleaned up amazingly by George in the wax stage. He was also able to tweak the face on the ghost and get it pretty much matching the green ghost in this sketch.
