The Goldie Hawks debut as stretch goals...and more character bio cards
over 7 years ago – Fri, Sep 23, 2016 at 01:33:23 PM

We are 95% funded folks!!! Only about $6,000.00 more to go to reach our funding goal! Just as a reminder we only have 5 of the Deluxe ALL IN sets left, so if you are interested in the Eagle Island play set make sure you grab one before they are gone. 

We just announce the final stretch goal..."The Goldie Hawks". 

If we reach $300,000 all 3 Goldie Hawks figures will be added to the ALL IN reward. Are you interested in learning more about "The Goldie Hawks? Look for Character Bios later this week...

Speaking of character bios...Here is Fireball and his Firebugs.

 

Thanks

Battlegrip Offline Micro-Zines, Issues #1 and #2 Kickstarter
For over seven years Philip Reed has been writing about toys and games at his site, battlegrip.com, and now he's switching things up a bit and creating the Battlegrip Offline micro-zine. The first three issues are done and ready to print. Check out this really fun Kickstarter as well as Philip's other books about toy collecting. His latest, "Action Figure Carrying Cases" is really an amazing read. 

Outlandish Mini Figure Guys! OMFG! Glow in the Dark -  Series 4 Kickstarter
Those crazy kids at October Toys have a new Kickstarter for Glow in the Dark versions of their OMFG! mini figure line. These are amazing mini figures at a great price. 

Pet Trading Cards with Eccleston Kickstarter 
Chris Irving is at it again...this time with trading cards about his pet cat Eccleston Draper. Before you ask WTF...Chris is doing this Kickstarter with his 7 year old niece to teach her about self publishing, social media and Kickstarter. It's a fun experiment for a young entrepreneur. 

 

New Exclusive Announcement and more Character Bio Cards
over 7 years ago – Mon, Sep 19, 2016 at 11:32:54 AM

Hey Eagle Forcers!!!

We are now 90% funded. This is great news..to celebrate we are announcing a new Exclusive item just for this campaign.

The Exclusive Edition Eagle Force Solid Gold Spray Paint can be used to customize any figure into their classic gold look. You can now back this reward or add it on to your current reward. Quantities are limited. This Exclusive will not be available after the Kickstarter..so act now while supplies last! Gold Captain Eagle figure not included. 

We also have 2 more Character Bios...

 

 Thanks

Bill and Craig!

More ALL IN Deluxe sets, Gold Cat figure now available to ALL backers, Army Builder head packs and more...
over 7 years ago – Fri, Sep 16, 2016 at 10:50:08 AM

Hey Everyone!!!!

As everyone knows Kickstarter campaigns are about a community coming together to make something great! You all are doing just that. We’ve been listening to the feedback and taking notes, so please keep it coming. We want to make this campaign the best it can be so we can get funded and see Eagle Force come back to action! With that in mind we are making some additions to the campaign.

We are adding 15 more ALL IN Deluxe options.
This reward has been super popular so we have been looking for ways to add a few more to the campaign. We've worked out an arrangement with D&J toys to create more of these sets, but it will take additional time to create these unique hand made custom pieces.

With that in mind, the custom pieces (Eagle Island, Gliders, Communication Stations) for these last few sets will not be delivered until late Q4-2018 if you pledge to this new reward. Please make sure you understand this before you pledge to this reward. If for some reason D&J Toys is not able to complete these extra custom pieces by this date a credit will be offered in the amount of $340.00, which can be used to purchase products that are currently available.

These 15 additional "ALL IN Deluxe Late Bird Part 2” sets will go on sale on Thursday, September 15th at 8PM pst.
Please be aware we sold out of these sets in record time last time these were offered, so please pledge early if you want this reward.

Kickstarter Exclusive Gold Cat
We are opening up the Kickstarter Exclusive Gold Cat figure to everyone as it’s own reward/Add On. 

We know there are a lot of folks who are just interested in the vintage gold designs, so we didn’t want to force them to buy an ALL IN set just to get this figure. Now that said…for those of you who are backing a ALL IN set, we are adding a mystery figure to this reward. This mystery figure will be announced in early 2017, it will be one of the following: a) An extra Army Builder b) A new Army Builder Repaint or c) A new Modern Character.
We will also guarantee that everyone who backs an ALL IN will get 25 figures, even if we don’t hit a single stretch goal. If we don’t hit any stretch goals you’ll be able to pick 5 figures from existing figures to make up the difference.

Army Builder Head sets.
We are adding the option as an ADD ON to purchase extra heads for Eagle Force/R.I.O.T. Army Builders. You can add on 1 head for $3.00 or 4 for $10.00. 


There are no shipping charges as long as you have a pre-existing pledge level of $20.00 and higher. We have 4 options now and a 5th will get unlocked when the Eagle Force Winter Trooper stretch goal is unlocked. A set of the Army Builder Heads will also be automatically added to all ALL IN rewards for free.

New Stretch Goals
We have added the Gold General Brown to the list of stretch goals. Originally we were going to offer him as part of the Eagle Force video game Kickstarter but after listening to your feedback we have added him to this campaign. 

We have one more final stretch goal to announce. Look for an update next week.

Character Bios 
Here are more character bios that will give you a bit of background for each of our characters. We have added a album on Facebook if you want to see all the Character Bio Cards. 

 

Thanks again for all the support and feedback everyone.
