Those Gobblers are going gangbusters. You must have made hundreds on them alone?

Sold hundreds, *made* considerably less. I set the margins rather low on them, nice guy that I am.

Precisely this. I will be pledging in about a week's time when payday comes around![/quote]

Payday has arrived. I have put my money where my mouth is and pledged.

And it's worth a quick bump to note that we're now just £200 off of getting our hands on the Advanced Sprue!

Hmm so my later contribution won't even be necessary for the first stretch goal it seems. So what's the next stretch goal? Leaders or heavy weapons on the sprue?

Heavies would seem to be a good idea. And maybe leaders of various types in metal.

I'd like to do a few smaller metal stretch goals (tanks, aircraft, metal leaders), and then make a run-up at getting some more sculpts onto the plastic sprue.

Sound good?

the bigger picture of the hulked up aliens has come down. Does this mean you're tweaking their design? (boots, belts, bits?)

The vehicle in that picture was the old version. :-)

Their design is currently undergoing flow testing at the factory. I'll see what kind of detail we can get out of them.

Just £134 to go until the Advanced Sprue is unlocked!
Will we make it there today?

The moment we cross the line, I'll be able to make separate sprues of bases available for pre-order.

Sounds good.
Can I suggest that each stretch level has options for both the aliens and humans? e.g. if you're putting the metal leaders up for a £3750 (or whatever) stretch, please make sure there are alien and human leaders as options.

I'm also intrigued by the idea of metal plug-ins you mentioned. These seem to fit with improving the sprue (which is the goal of the campaign), rather than adding stand-alone things.

Getting there slowly maybe by the end of the week, the metal gobblers seem to be speeding things along nicely.
