Same here. Like I mentioned... always wanted to make Clint, just because. Shit... grew up watching all those movies, and will still watch them today if they're on.

Toy r us had some western toy building & stagecoach that would go well with this.

Yeah, Chap Mei repaints. This talk of stagecoaches being a major end goal for the Kickstarter has me confused, as they say no horses in wave 1. Carts before horses and all that.
I'd sure like to see what they have in mind for females. Squaws, whores in various states of undress, and dyked-out, Deadwood-inspired Calamity Jane clones I can see pretty easily, but I want a properly dressed lady figure, and I can't wrap my head around how you do that with any articulation of any real value below the waist. I suppose I'm putting the cart before the horse this time.

I want them to ASAP, but kinda don't. Not only will i have to fork over $60 for the game, I'll also need to get a $300-$400 PS4. 
Man would I really love this line. Theres two things that suck, though.
1. Alyosha
2. Probably the now typical $20+ per figure.

Here's hoping that Red Dead Whatever it's called has the Rockstar Director and Editor mode functions.
Love to hear that they are working on a fat guy body type. There are few options out there now, which limits which customs I could do.
custom JJ Jamason. Penguin, Perry White etc

They're ambitious, at least. Still think they've got the stagecoach and horse priorities ass-backwards. Smalljoes getting an exclusive of that caliber? Ewok sure wouldn't like that.
Dunno what the director mode is, but after seeing some of the shit people come up with in the editor in GTA Online, one for RDW could be epic.
They already own the stagecoach prototype. The horses have to be sculpted and the tooling designed.
And on the company FB group, there are shots of the figures riding horses. I just can't share them here.

It is, but in context to a pre-kickstarter offering, I don't think it really is. There was supposed to be a couple interviews last Sunday that probably would have clarified why there were horses shown but not offered yet. They are comfortable in directing people towards 1/18 horses that are currently available on the market until they can invest in the tooling cost for a superior product.
I personally hope they make the most articulate, high quality horses in that scale as it's an item that people outside of the action figure community will buy.
It's also why I think MGR is going in the wrong direction by making his dogs modular in the vests they have instead of modular in the breeds they offer.
That coach is the proto from the Dusty Trails line that never materialized. I don't believe they're using that to mold from; just as a proof-of-concept display like the oall the figures from that line they displayed.
That's the thing, what are there for 1:18 horses? The two Indiana Jones horses (vintage and '08) that are strictly secondary market, and PTE during holiday season. I'm sure there's a static one in 1:18 somewhere, and there might be a slightly articulated one in some pink aisle line I'm not aware of.
As to the dogs, do you mean something along the lines of having short and long-hair breed torsos? That's how I likely would have tackled it.
Ha, look down there in the bottom right corner above the bottom view of the head. They're not even trying to not get sued!
I had little interest in ponying up big money for Greco-Roman soldiers and mythical creatures, but my soul needs western gunfighters.
If I support this and end up not being able to recreate the main cast of Tombstone, I'll be pissed. Wyatt? Curly Bill? I need for Val Kilmer to drill Johnny Ringo... "I'm your huckleberry..."
And my secondary hope is for the main characters from Deadwood. Hell, they can reuse the Curly Bill head sculpt! Plus, if we get a good Seth, it'll immediately get me started for several characters from Justified...

Something just occurred to me...Back to the Future III figures!!
I believe they have Doc Kilmer, it just hasn't been shown. Johnny, Curly Bill and Wyatt are definitely homages-ed in the Gunfighter, the Drover, and the Marshall, respectively. Hell, the Gunfighter just needs a red sash and a dragon painted on his waistcoat.
God, do I love that movie.
I believe the first wave has something like 12 different paint variations. The legs and bodies can also be swapped and there are a bunch of different jackets, vests, and gear. You should be able to create just about anything you want excluding the heads.
