The Monsters kickstarter passed the 25% mark (with 52 days left to go). Let’s say that does become fully funded: do customers who pre-ordered figures previously get those added incentives/bonuses?

I highly doubt anyone who previously preordered will receive anything, given that Frank went up for general sale (well.... preorder) over a year ago, and has been included in two crowdfunders since
I would question the logic or rational thought of anyone who thinks preordering from this proven failure is anything but a waste of your time and money
lets face it, if Sal was actually going to produce these figures, he would have done so already

Counterpoint: he appears to be actually making progress with CVV. Molds were shown off for some of those other figures which is a significant portion of the cost to do these. I still think he is robbing Peter to pay Paul and wanting to build up his resume so that he can eventually hit it big with one of these lines…I really can’t see any other scenario. Those mini folded and glued wash cloth sales hopefully helped fund some stuff too! |

Rush has a pretty nice holiday bundle for sale right now. Roadblock (all black), Larry Zybszko black trunks, French Angel (standard one) and mini figs Amazon and Star Man. $70 for the whole thing. Not a bad deal, especially for anyone who was waiting to pull the trigger on any of these.

CVV has arrived at Rush Warehouse. Sal has to pop the arms and head in before packing up and shipping.Sal states the reason the come disassembled is so he can QC each one so we get the best product.
Trumps body has arrived but the head will be here tomorrow.

Not a bad deal, especially for anyone who was waiting to pull the trigger on any of these. That is the best deal I have seen in the retro space. That breaks down to $20 per retro and $5 per mini. His CVV looks great. I missed out on these, so if anyone has extras let me know. I'd like both the blue and the plum assuming the plum is molded. Can anyone confirm if it is molded in plum or painted plim. |

literally no expense spent on this line whatsoever
is it REALLY that much of a saving for him to do it himself, over getting the figures manufactured and assembled in the factory where they're made, using proper glue?
I guess the test will be when someone receives their CVV to see whether it falls apart like the last batch of Rush figures did? or has he spent the bulk of his budget investing in gallons of Gorilla Glue?

He put up another video but I didn’t get to watch more than a few seconds of it. |

Sal probably won't Paypal as the likelihood of disputes or recharges/refund claims will negatively impact his ability to use it for personal purchases in future
