    I think you just pledge the $110 amount, tick one of the $55 reward levels and then they'll do a survey afterwards to sort out what you want from the amount pledged above. That's how most Kickstarters seem to work.

    That's correct. You can pretty much combine any action figure rewards, just add the money up and pledge that amount. When the Kickstarter ends they send you a latter asking what you wanted.

    So if you want Desolataur and Bloodbath, you pick one, but donate $110 (the total of $55 and $55), and in the email they send you in a month you reply "I want Desolataur and Bloodbath". They will throw both in your order. It's a bit strange, but that's how Kickstarter works, because they set web page up that you can only tick off one reward.

    I'd be an awful lot more tempted if either Thundercracker or Skywarps tech drones was Actionmaster Thundercracker coloured.

    Still may grab something by the end.

    This is really cool but I'm more interested in those new GoBots we saw a few days ago.

    These seem a bit expensive compared to other similar Kickstarter's have done for similar sized figures. I had also hoped to see more than one unpainted prototype.

    So the Play with it all option includes every item made, even those not seen yet correct?

    Ok, so I did the math...

    Out of the 21 figures currently on the Kickstarter, it would cost me $430 to get just the ones I'm interested in.

    It would be a lot less than that if you could buy the Hordak one wideout having I get the other four.

    I might toss in a few shekels. I'm kinda more interested in one of the head packs than I am of a single figure.

    That is correct. Whatever gets unlocked will be included in the All In Package.

    I'm really hoping more distinct pledge levels get added. I appreciate the main figures themselves, and will probably be interested in one or four ( ;)  ) but the bulk of my excitement is for the HEAD SHOTS and HEAD STANDS. The STANDS are the sort of thing I want to turn into random encounters for my D&D and Pathfinder groups (the wheel attachment, the 'oracle' base, robo-legs, etc.).

    TECH DRONES are also looking fantastic, along with the other accessories.

    I'm hoping whoever is manning the PWTToo account here looks at this thread for feedback. :D

    Wow, minus the extras and just counting the figures that are listed so far, that's definitely some pretty good savings right there, but that's only IF the stretch goals are met.


    I'm pretty confident the goals WILL be met however, and as long as they are I'll pry go for the play with it all goal if I do decide to bite on these.

    I'm a bit curious about something. the way the rewards are worded, if only the goal is met and no stretch goals are reached, it sounds like those who picked the Play With It All option ($900) are essentially getting the same thing as those who pick the Play With Level 5 option ($250). Is that correct?

    We have more surprises in store that might fight in between the current stretch goals. The ALL IN pack will ultimately save you hundreds of $$$.

    People have time to change their pledges right until the end.

    Good to know.


    That was part of the reason I was just gonna sit back and watch, but now I'm gonna hafta think more seriously about it and see what kind of reorganization of funds I can come up with. :lol

    I'll definitely be backing this, likely getting one or two figures. Gotta see how my personal funds are first though, but I am excited for this!

    Will there be additional repaints/options to get just additional TECH DRONES besides the glow packs, or are they gang-molded with their respective Protector figures? I can only imagine all the logistics involved with shared/repainted parts. @_@

    Does one of the unlockable levels have the wrong amount for the stretch goal, or is it just out of order?

    The list jumps from $225K to $275K, then back down to $250K followed by $255K and $280K.
