Coolio on the next milestone being reached, what an amazing day. The freebie series 2 figure is a nice unexpected bonus, those should provisionally hit around December right? I'll be keeping an even closer eye on this thread for details on where the exclusives will be available and for the factory samples when they come in and series 2 development. I just keep getting more and more stoked about these, great work everybody.

Wow, super very cool! Man, hopefully the success of OMFG! and now ROTB means there will be slews of independent mini-figure lines made by collectors for collectors for years to come!

Question: Is the bonus series II figure going to be the squat style? Will it be blank or painted?

Nope, since the goal has been hit, that will provide enough funds to get one or more of the series 2 figures started at the same time as the other 3 series 1 figures. So they should all ship at the same time. Matter of fact, if we hit $17k or more, I am reasonably confident that series 2 can be done at the same time, depending on how long character development goes with the $1500 pledgers.

Question: Is the bonus series II figure going to be the squat style? Will it be blank or painted?

As far as style goes, not certain. 3 of the 4 slots for S2 have been pledged, so it could be either. As far as painted or non painted, both styles will be run. By default it will be the painted version, but it can easily be swapped out for the mono if that is what you want for yours.

This is so awesome!!!

Everyone lose interest already? It's almost been a whole day since anyone posted!

61 hours left! We either need to get 150 pledges or reach $17,000!

gosh dang this is exciting, so who are the 3 $1500 bidders? Any ideas what animals you will be choosing?

[jkaris]

Remember the super awesome concept figures I was telling you about? Here is one....



Not sure which series this will fall into yet and it definitely isn't finished. But you get the idea.

BTW, this is not from one of the 3 Series 2 backers.

I was the second one. I'm leaning towards an orange bengal tiger with black stripes.

That sounds pretty damn awesome! Johnny, that Rhino is effing sweet too, I'd love to see one of those made.

Edit: the bat sounds like an amazing idea too, damn, im already excited for series two.

I was the third backer, and so far I'm fixed on a Blitzkrieg Bat inspired character.
Loving that Rhino Jon!

Time to come out of the closet as it were. I was the first $1,500 pledger. I have a few animals in mind, but haven't decided on anything quite yet. I do know that I won't pick an animal that was used as a Battle Beast.

As long as you don't pick a Yorkshire Terrier I will be ok ^^

Great! That means you can make it as the 4th Series 2 figure, right?

Love it! Can't wait to get one... or, you know, the other guys too. Congratulations on a job well done!

[OmegaTraf]

I live week to week so I had to wait till tonight. I finally got my $45 pledge in.

A slug!!!

Just going to throw this out there, I'm already planning to shoot the figures immediately when they get to me in the mail. When it actually comes to fruition and they're getting ready to be sold, if any online store that carries them needs high quality photos - I'm willing to provide that. I've worked with a couple of companies photographically before, including Mattel.

You can check the links in my signature for a LOT of toy related photos (my Flickr has plenty more than my blog) for examples of what I do.

That will be an awesome figure! Funny how Rise of the Beasts came out about the same time I got interested in BB.

Hhaha, when I first read it I was like, shoot them? You son of a bee-eye-itch!

Great photo's btw.

[Onyxiaphil]

Am I the only one who thought of Rocksteady from the Turtles when seeing this?

I might be upgrading my pledge. These are super cool.

[Doctor Dew]

Quick login to say that I am glad I saw this in time to trade 45 of my dollars for 5 or these figures!!!
Very cool.

[McCTXToys]

Congrats guys on a cool looking line!
