Last night, a new update was sent to the backers of the Marauders Task Force Valkyries project. Here’s the scoop –
Hey 312 Valtaskers!
Here is where we currently stand with the new male MTF figures. After the initial shipping error, we received more shipments…but unfortunately there were additional errors. Examples such as we received all of the figures of one color, but didn’t get the corresponding color accessories for those figures or received all the color accessories for a particular figure, but didn’t get the figures in that color. The shipping errors stemmed from a mixup with the original order about the required quantities of each item and the required avail date. We have received a large quantity of items, but not ALL the figures or ALL the accessories.
After the “smoke cleared” we took inventory of what was missing, came up with a final list and THOSE are the items at last getting produced & shipped to us. We apologize for the delay and are taking all steps necessary to fix the situation (we flew in the last few shipments and are also flying in the final part of the order). While we are doing everything we can to get the orders sent out, we can’t guarantee the items will ship in time for Christmas. We deeply regret not having the items and will keep you all updated.
Again, we thank you for your patience and deeply appreciate your continued support! MJ
So, if you were planning on gifting these, you may want to look in to a plan B while MJ and the team sort through the issues with the factory. We’ll keep you posted as new info is received. You can join in on the discussion already in progress after the break.

Looking forward to seeing the sculpts and paint masters. Nice touch making the leg armor removable.
Kaisugi says
Great to hear MJ! I'm in for this!
Interesting to see the "pick & mix" aspect to this kickstarter, as opposed to the preset combos from the last one. For me the most interesting figs are some of the higher up stretch goals, and especially the steady-cam weapon.... man I hope we can make it there!
edit: just checked, and I forgot how much the first MTF was able to reach, $244k. These goals don't seem too far off at all!
Naptime says
Not quite as much free stuff thrown into those higher tiers, which is absolutely understandable. Part of me kinda feels bad about the deal vice admiral was last time around.
Gonna have to wait a bit to get funds lined up, but I am stoked to see how this one does!
MaulEyes says
I just backed it with the Valhalla package. The addition of a rifle, pistol, and 2 GRENADES with each figure is a great addition to that level that most dont realize. You don't get them with any other packages.
The all-in is nice, but I like that for an extra $360 I get 50 picks and the weapons. That's essentially $7 per choice.
CADPAT says
I wish we'd gotten parts like the backpack, radio, shotgun holster and satchel with the MTF figures. I'd rather have had either of the two vest designs shown than the one they went with for the male figures, too.
That said, I'll note that we got what was effectively Snake Eyes and a Colonial Marine last time. This round appears to be offering Lady Jaye and a USCM pilot as stretch goals in addition to the aforementioned smartgunner.

Went full Valhalla. No regrets.
Black Swan says
Here it goes again !

And now for 41 days of fun. I can't back until the first week of September, so I'm glad that there is plenty of time.
