Definitely do so, because I want in on this, but have a terrible track record with remembering when the dates roll around.

And are those the proposed "standard" colors in the picture above?

Correct!

Once we get further along, I'll post up the first batch of alternate colors.

Sweet!

Do you have an idea what the base plastic color will be? I guess the Kickstarter will explain it all.

For the painted figures, the base color will always be the armor color. All the other bits are painted.
For the lion and gorilla above, the pvc will be red. For the lizard and ant, the same metallic black we used on Gaamik and Cahriv.

The unpainted figures will come in flesh and the two base colors above, as well as gold.

But there will definitely be alternate colors too. For example, a blue armored lion and gorilla and a maroon armored ant and lizard, glow in the dark, etc.

Thanks guys!

Just a reminder that KS won't actually charge your card until March 1st, when the project ends (assuming we reach our goal). So you can pledge today and not actualy have to pay for it until March.
And if you get in a pinch before then, you can always modify your pledge at any time before the end date.

I purposely timed the length to cover 3 pay periods (for those of us getting paid twice a month).

I got the 4 painted figures plus some blanks. Note sure which colors though. The gold and/or metallic black are tempting to match Series 1, but the glow and bone sound cool too.

I backed to get all the glow figure, plus the painted ones :D Plus a pair of blanks. I think I'll get two bone rhinos. One to keep as is and one to customize!

Oh man I didn't even think of matching the Series 1...hmm...

I'm thinking I might want to army build the ants and customize them but I think I'll wait for a wider release and just get the usual 10 pack. I'll keep my Insecticon colored one as Legion Commander :D

Can anybody tell me if the Lion figure will have painted eyes in the final release or is that his final paint scheme? Hoping he has painted eyes. Loved the first two figures that I got, so I'm thinking I'll back this.

His eye is actually the same color as his hair. On that paint scheme, the skin is like a light lion yellow and his hair is like a standard yellow, so they don't contrast that much in pictures. But the eye is definitely painted a different color than the skin.

Just a quick note on these, the armor is the PVC color and everything else is painted.

Thanks for the response LRG! Glad to here they are painted. I guess the pictures were fooling me. I'll hopefully be able to back you before the day is up. I'm really psyched for the blue paint scheme on the Lion figure so I hope that shows up before to long.

When I got home from D-Con my son saw wave 1 and stole mine.
Great stuff.

I am having that retouched. The white that is on the blue lion was a little too bright, so I have a buddy here who paints minis go over it with a slightly darker white. :)
