Stick to the core plan, and make the best goddamn sprue you can with the remaining time.
Remember that you've achieved your initial goal, and that's awesome – a heartfelt congratulations and thanks for the initiative, time and funding you've put into it already.

I have to agree whole heatedly - In two months (!!) (hopefully) you will have managed : Funding achieved. Market tested. Production methods will be tested and proven. Example models will be out there gaining word of mouth. Income stream created. Reputation sealed.
That is the time for a big crowd funded expansion !
But the success of round 2 will be largely down to how damn cool you can make spru 1.
IMHO and without full info ; the potential life span of the product (and sales of potential later add-ons) if done right means the cost of variation (especially on the aliens) is relatively minor in comparison to sales if this initial interest is anything to go by.
Incidentally - one argument for weapon variation is the additional potential for increasing the number of builds. Ie. Units consisting of ranged weapons, cc weapons or both for variety and bulk. Just a thought.
