Got to say I'm underwhelmed. Looks like something from the costume department on Xena: Warrior Princess.


Still, she may be fixable.

Good news on the blanks:
Hi Boss Fight backers,

We have two announcements for you today, one small one for fans of the army builders and a big one for customizers.


The first announcement, as you've probably guessed, is a 10-pack add-on of the recently unlocked Underworld Warrior. The Underworld armies are priced the same as the other 10-pack add-ons: $165 plus $15 shipping for international backers.

The second one has to do with our H.A.C.K.S. Blank Body figures. Almost from the launch of the Kickstarter, we've been hearing from people who are really most excited about the Blank Bodies and their customizing potential and wanted a way to buy them right from the start. We've discussed this issue a lot, but until the Blank Body figures were unlocked, there wasn't really a way to give these potential backers what they wanted without opening the add-ons up to everyone and completely breaking our Kickstarter reward system. But now that the first wave has been unlocked, we've got something that gives customizers a way to buy in at the Kickstarter reward level.


Announcing the $120 Blank Body Customizer Set! This new reward is a set of six H.A.C.K.S. Blank Body figures: two Shadow Gray males, one Fire Orange Transparent male.....


...two Champagne Beige females, and one Python Purple female.

Why six figures? Because we wanted to create a set that was over the $115 level. That means that all backers who select the $120 reward will be able to purchase add-ons! So if you need an extra or two of the Wave 1 Blanks, you want to pick up figures from the other waves once they're unlocked, or you decide you want to try just one of the Greek Mythology figures (which you won't regret), you can go right ahead and do it.

So if you've been waiting and hoping that there would be some way for you to buy just the H.A.C.K.S. Blank Body figures, now's the time to make your pledge. And if you know toy fans who are interested in the Blanks and are planning to wait and buy them at retail, let them know that there's a reward just for them now.

Thanks as always for your support and keep spreading the word!

Pretty sure they're to make it easy to customize some specific characters. There's been lots of talk about how the purple chick could easily be made into Pythona.

I suck too much at sculpting to do anything with those blank bodies...I'd end up making them nude zombies anyway.

I really wanted to back these as I liked the designs of the figures, but I just don't have any need for this line.

It's just the odd choices. Why 4 different colors? Why not 4 figures in 2 colors?

I want to make an updated Adventure People X-Ray Woman, goddammit!

Same, I'd pick up the Athenian, but that's probably it. Maybe the Amazon. They're great looking figures and hopefully it continues to be successful for them.

Well that is great for the 10 people that want her! ;)

You would be surprised at how many people want that figure. Even here where people front and pretend that they're aren't joe fans, i bet she would be popular. I personally don't have a need for her but if she was done well and not some inane price, i would buy her.

They're just all so......stale. What's the fantasy genre equivalent of a rivet counter? I think I may be one.

I will say that those legs paired with a bare male torso will be a great start to a night raid Conan custom.

They're probably on the table for the inevitable "not Conan" barbarian figure.

Yup...just, boring...

Are there really that many people clamoring for this kinda line?

The Greek soldiers, Medusa, and the skeletons probably have a fairly decent following. Hell, I'm looking forward to them.

This recent stuff... not that I'm aware of.

I love the Greek stuff, the recent stuff, some of it looks cool for custom fodder, but so far, I'm just sticking with the Greek stuff. Show me some Vikings, Egyptian and call me weird, but Old West stuff.. then we'll talk.

Certain places are lapping it up.

I like the idea of gladiators, and Eddie might be on to something with old west figures.

It seems like they come out with another mod of one of their bucks every day. Just stick to your main figures and get them out the door first and see if the line will even sell...THEN trickle out some others. Don't count your chickens before they hatch!

Some of this Greek stuff is fine, but I'm really interested in their sci-fi ideas.
