    Kickstarter Blind Figure Revealed...

    Like I said in the update this really only applies to the 15 lucky folks who pledged for the Trifecta, but it's a cool figure and I thought you all might like to see it. The product of the very talented Ed Aldrett (Seattle Ed) I give you the SalaryStak!

          For those of you not familiar with this character, he based on this Suckadelic drop:

              This came out great. I was grumpy at first with the delays,but this made it worth the long wait.

                    Superfun!

                    Do tell… I thought these were comin' straight outta the lair in the Chinatown. What was Ed's role? Assembly?

                    And WHEN are we getting them!?! They can't arrive soon enough.

                        It made sense to have a bonus figure for this campaign as an extra incentive to collectors. The character should be one of his famous early pieces, the SleeStak. So it was either the SpaceStak or the SalaryStak. I really wanted to do the SpaceStak in multiple colors but the missing component was the helmet. SalaryStak seemed the best fit since the clothes were readily available. All that was need was the head, hands and feet so I sculpted those parts. Made the silver ties as well. All approved by $L.

                          Yes, since only 15 pieces had to be made. I would have loved to have these rotocast but that was out of the question due to cost factor, I believe. But it helped to retain that Suckadelic feel with having cast parts. Which he has done with his MEGO drops.

                            Cool, congrats on the official SEx$L. What a fun project this must have been for you.

                            Who did the box/packaging? Did he retain that in his realm as usual?

                            Ed, now you need to do a mash-up with Freeny… I keep envisioning his anatomical riff in Mego.

                              Packaging is $L graphics but I think Dave my have a better insight. There are plans for other exclusives/variations and characters.
