Never Say Nevermore… Again!
Posted by: Craig Woolheater on February 14th, 2013
Well, the last Kickstarter crowdsourcing campaign did not get funded.
But the creative genius behind these cryptid figures, R. Todd Broadwater, has started a new Kickstarter crowdsourcing campaign that is very doable and will bring these ultra cool cryptid action figures to market by Halloween!
By pledging as little as $80, you can get a complete set of all four figures: Momo, Mothman, El Chupacabras and the Jersey Devil!
I featured these action figures in a post here on Cryptomundo back in 2006, when I was sure they would never happen.
This is the original brochure that was made for these figures in 2000.
One of these original brochures, signed by the designer R. Todd Broadwater, will be awarded to the Cryptomundian who pledges the largest amount during this Kickstarter campaign.
Come back here and record your pledge, the highest of which will win this original signed brochure.
Cryptomundians who pledge at least $100 will receive a copy of the newly produced brochure, shown below, also signed by R. Todd Broadwater.
C’mon Cryptomundians, let’s make this happen!
I’m in for $255, how about you?
About Craig Woolheater
Co-founder of Cryptomundo in 2005.
I have appeared in or contributed to the following TV programs, documentaries and films:
OLN's Mysterious Encounters: "Caddo Critter", Southern Fried Bigfoot, Travel Channel's Weird Travels: "Bigfoot", History Channel's MonsterQuest: "Swamp Stalker", The Wild Man of the Navidad, Destination America's Monsters and Mysteries in America: Texas Terror - Lake Worth Monster, Animal Planet's Finding Bigfoot: Return to Boggy Creek and Beast of the Bayou.
I always thought these figures looked cool, when I saw them on Kickstarter I wanted to pledge but thought the goal was unachievable.
Now that the project has had a relaunch, I had pledged my $120, so I will be getting a full set, and I hope some backer rewards are added if the funds reach or exceed their goal.
Is there a link to the actual kickstarter? I can’t seem to find it if so.
cor2879,
I apologize for not linking to the new Kickstarter campaign.
I added the link to the post and here it is also.
Thanks for bringing it to my attention!
OMG! Craig these are totally awesome! My guys would adore them! I adore them! They are gorgeous!
The Action Figures are really awesome. I can’t justify eighty dollars for four action figures, my sons would pester me without end once they saw these ‘toys’ and I did not let them play with them.
If the product at a later time is reduced in price, count me in.
His goal is still too high. He won’t reach it. I don’t understand why he isn’t using IndieGogo, so he could at least collect whatever money was pledged, even if he didn’t hit his goal.
The simple fact of the matter is that these are figures for a niche market.
Very nice figures!
