There’s only 3 days left to get in on The Cat: Eight Lives Left novel from The Drawn Word. In case you haven’t been keeping track, the campaign has not only funded, but has unlocked the following stretch goals –
- artist Tim Shinn will be doing an illustration
- Eagle Force Strikes! The Cat Metal Card
- R.I.O.T. Direcktor Trading Card
If the campaign hits a stretch goal of $1,450 USD within the next 3 days, backers will get in on a TOP SECRET Mail-In Metal card! Mail In, you ask? TDW already has an answer for you. Check it out –
I know you’re probably asking “Chris, why the heck wouldn’t you just put the metal card IN with our pledge?”
The reason? I want to bring back the excitement of getting a mail-in. I remember how fantastic it was getting a Sgt. Slaughter, Super Trooper, or Hooded Cobra Commander in the mail.
To help get to goal, you can now get a set of the original Eagle Force Strikes! cards for $5 a set! Please note: These do not have the limited Lost Brigade subset that backers on that campaign or of this campaign’s Drawn Word Level. If you want to cash in on these, just add $5 to your pledge. You’ll receive a survey out at the end of the campaign for them.
There you have it, folks! If you’d like to know more backstory on this project, check out our original story here. To get in on the action, head on over to the Eagle Force Pulp – The Cat: Eight Lives Left Kickstarter Campaign. Either way, make sure to join us after the break for discussion in progress!

Didn't see it mentioned here so I'm posting this today. The good people at Boss Fight Studios are designing new figures in 1/18th scale based on the 1980's Mego property Eagle Force. Based on their collaboration with MGR's, it can mean nothing but great things to look forward to in 2015.

Kinda surprised Boss Fight would directly compete with both Marauder and Hasbro. Well, maybe not so directly in Hasbro's case since this won't be mass-retail product, but still!
It'll probably be pretty awesome...wonder if they're using the HACKS system on these?

Holy smokes...I loved these as a kid. Fantastic news! Eagle Island is still a great iconic playset.
I missed out on the MTF Kickstart as I had unexpected car repairs the week it closed. No way I'm letting this slip by.

Oh yeah! Hope they're 1:18th-ish scale!

Ha! This is awesome!
I remember being excited seeing the commercials for this line back in the day and becoming disappointed seeing them in real life at the store as the scale was incompatible with the Joes. Finally the scale issue has been corrected, only took 30+ years.

Wow, I was thinking about these recently. "What were those little metal Joe-like figures with the plastic heads that had a blue ninja?".... I had a handful of them, thought they were cool.
RolandofGilead says
According to Boss Fight, these will be similar in design to Modern Era Joes. No mini metal figures to be had.

I only had Stryker as a child. I'd like to get these in all in Joe scale though.
I'm hoping for the good folks at Boss Fight to make us some 1/18th scale Buck Rogers, Battlestar, Sectaurs and Crystar figures.
