    LOL! They got even more generous by the end!

    From the math 10 backers overpaid or chipped in $7,888 just for the love . . . more than all the other rewarded pledges combined! :lol:

    The math also says the highest reward tier is a convenient way for Greg to get rid of some of his thrift store dollies for $300 apiece. No takers there, huh..? :lol:

    if you aren't blind you can clearly do the numbers, and realize that he at least got almost half of it funded by "fans" at least its only half of a risk now as you got half of the money "pledged" yeah we'll used pledged... it's a far nicer word.

    That's pretty fucked if there was something dodgy going on with the funding

    I don't know about dodgy, but the numbers everyone has posted above are pretty transparent. Just did them myself to see.
    • If you take every reward tier cost and multiply by the number of backers, they add up to $7505
    • Total funds raised were $15,393, so that's $7888 unaccounted for
    • 156 backers pledged for rewards, leaving 10 to split the outstanding funds
    • 10 people like Mr T dolls and/or Quang's admittedly excellent cosplay enough to pledge $790-odd on average, for nothing in return
    Kickstarter only lets you pledge at a single level per campaign, so we know there are no cases of double-counting where one person might take multiple pledges (sometimes a problem when doing numbers for other sites).

    If 10 people with deep pockets actually loved this enough to produce about half the funding for it, that's their business. Twisting people's arms to secure pledges is a lame move, though. Maybe a full coffee-table book isn't the right way to produce this thing; if it's just a passion project the best thing to do might be raising enough to pay your photographer, getting the shoot done and posting online. Circulate a zine if you want to be really indie about it ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

    Just because YOU don’t remember something happening doesn’t mean it didn’t happen. This world never ceases to irritate me.

    Zing! I broke the numbers the same. Lol. You just look at all this, and you can paint the picture. You got 48% truly backed... hell 52% of a risk is better than 100% of a risk right?

    I found out yesterday that my friends daughter has type 1 Diabetes. He's a single Dad and his daughter is his whole life (she's 13 years old) he took her in for a skin rash, but after urine tests they found out about the Diabetes.

    Fucking sucks. She's a good kid. He had a run of bad luck financially, but recently their luck was turning around for them and things were looking up - and now this shit happens.

    Fuck you, Diabetes!

    Doesn't seem like my ex has any intention of patching things up so I had to go ahead and defriend him and everyone I met through him on social media. Depressing shit. Fuck.

    Found a particular toy by an artist that I like through a random search. NO names because the seller listed through WALMART. Extra, extra! Get your oh so fashionable art toy from RippedThongHeaven. Nice. Walmart delivers toys. Next: "Leopard Skin Print Adult Diapers; Punk or Metal?"
    Needless to say, a big FY to w*lm*rt and Sam's Kids in general.

    Fig tree. Was acting manly the other day, shirtless, trimming the damn thing back. Didn't know I was allergic to the leaves or sap. Now my chest and arms looks like I took a full load of buckshot from a few feet away. Not to mention the daily clean up of fallen fruit and partial debris from the birds, squirrels, fig beetles, and other urban wildlife going bat shit crazy over the ridiculously abundance of figs. So, FY fig tree

    Thundercats was poorly written he-man rip off. Rife with animation mistakes and weird nonsense.
    It's about some boujee ass cat people that ruin their own planet, so they have colonize 3rd Earth. They end up fighting a mummy man and his montly band of monsters, to save a bunch of robo-bears? then... they end up fighting some pirates. The whole time it took itself WAY too serious.

    I think it'd be HARD not to write a better story than that.


    It's a cartoon, for kids... Wtvr.

    I would LOVE to see this turn into a full-blown pissing contest between He-man and Thundercats fans.....

    Let me grab some popcorn.

    Both IPs are ludicrous. If we were to ask which one was more successful? My $ is on MOTU. Bigger toy line, and Skeletor.
    Both had show runs of 130 episodes.

    I love both, nostalgically. But I’m not going to call in a bomb threat at CalArts cause of ThunderCats butt hurt ness.

    I don't think I'd go that far and if someone does do that they need to seriously get there fucking ass beaten. But I do feel Thundercats fans get neglected way more with the property.
