Title: Marauder GR NEW ITEM Pre-Order Event
Post by: martin-montreal on October 16, 2012, 08:21:08 PM: Got this by email today: Marauder GR: A New Era Of Figure & Gaming Miniature Gear

Hi!
Greetings! Thank you for your support of Marauder "Gun-Runners!" We very
much value you allowing us to supply your 1:18 scale miniature accessory & gear for your 3-3/4 inch action figures!

We've received several questions about our upcoming "new" items, so we set
up a "Pre-Order" for our NEW items on kickstarter.com (http://kickstarter.com). It is an opportunity to order & reserve the new items you've requested in advance. Please check out the event and hopefully you'll consider participating in the project:

I'm interested by the Gentleman Level, but I don't know if his stands are perfect for vintage figs ('80-'88)... so the peg is not too tight. The one from Small Joes (the smaller peg I found on the market) are limit for the vintage fig. I had to sand most.

Anyone?

I figure it's gotta work with at least one of the toy lines. I bought some Entertainment Earth stands and they're lousy.

Agreed!
I think the chessboard is pretty cool (made up of 128 stands) and cheaper at "Nobleman" level than buying individually. Also, free shipping to Canada.

Post by: martin-montreal on October 23, 2012, 10:04:53 PM: I also grabbed the "chessboard"... I hope he will make it. But, I don't understand why he didn't post everywhere (i.e. on all joe boards). I mean, I did it here but I'm just a joe fan... not part of his business.

Post by: morgardee on October 24, 2012, 09:13:34 AM: Well they wanted to reach $17,000 and they passed that goal ($17,358 as of now).

I placed my order this morning for the $29 Raider set. I just love desert themed sets. ;)

Again, these guys have seriously helped the CJC sets in the past and my personal feeling is they did all of us regulars a solid favor, so I'm returning the favor by supporting this project. Sure, you can argue that point but that's just my personal view.

Post by: ARROW on October 24, 2012, 11:47:11 AM: They are over $18,300+ with 12 hrs to go, now.

I got my first order from MJ about a month ago, and was VERY impressed with the quality of the products. I signed up for this Kickstarter project without any hesitation, right at the start.

Post by: martin-montreal on October 24, 2012, 06:43:03 PM: They reach $19,306... goal was $17K!!!!!

Still 5 hours to go...
Title: Re: Marauder GR NEW ITEM Pre-Order Event
Post by: joss789 on October 24, 2012, 09:13:42 PM: They reach their goal. Congratulation guys.
Just buy the Buccaneer Level and will buy more once the new items will be available. Got tons of stuff from MJ in the last few years and i'm happy to support them again.

By the way, the "Tan Camo" set is awesome!
