    Assuming the Kickstarter is live by the end of July and gets successfully funded I'm hoping to have the figures available by October or November.

        I'm so confused...I thought this Kickstarter thing had already been going on for like a year? This line was first announced in March 2014.
        So it's been 15 months and we're STILL waiting on ONE 3 3/4" figure...it's like the 12" Captain Action costume sets all over again.

        I'm beginning to think anything associated with CA is cursed.

          Ooh, the Red F is NICE! Reminds me a bit of the evil Batman from the Super Friends episode "Universe of Evil".

            Red F is my favorite. I think it needs the red costume to differentiate it from the regular Captain Action, and the blue skin and solid red eyes say "evil clone" the most to me.

                Well, for your sake I hope it works out. After Buck Rogers and SMDM, you certainly deserve a lucky break.

                  That's not how Kickstarter campaigns work anyway. They can't be any longer than 45 days. And if you want to see the CA figures become a reality, you should have been looking for and backing the Kickstarter since you thought it was running. Putting together a KS campaign requires a LOT of behind the scene work and costs a lot of money to get everything together (sculpts/mockups/3D prints/painted prototypes). Instead of complaining, show your support by backing the KS campaign when it goes live like I will!

                      I've shown my support for ZICA by purchasing two of every figure they've produced. If these figures ever get made I'll do the same.

                          Thanks! I'm fairly optimistic the Kickstarter will fund considering what will be offered. I've got a few surprises in the works for it, one of which the MEGO crowd will hopefully like.

                              I liked the blue version better, but this is excellent as well.

                              I just wish that this was 8".

                                I just wish this was 3.75". We all seem to have preferences all over the spectrum. Was polling for scale prior to the crowdfunding ever a consideration?
