May BMC Figure Update New Pose
The first complete sets of Plastic Army Women resin prototypes arrived yesterday so I was very excited to set up all 18 pieces together for the first time:
It’s really gratifying to see all the troops together and one step closer to the final product. The next step is to send them to the toolmaker so they are transformed into steel plastic injection molds. There’s still plenty of little details to work out, but this represents a major milestone in the project.
Schedule-wise, we’re about a month behind where I would like to be, but is still on track for October release. I’m way behind schedule on opening up the Backerkit site where you’ll finalize your reward details. The good news is that it won’t change when you receive your rewards. The Backerkit launch date depends upon when I get a few more details finalized, but I’ll be trying for the end of May.
Stay well,
Jeff at BMC Toys

‘Medic’ not ‘Corpsmen’. That’s an Army hat, Corpsmen belong to the Navy and support the Marine Corps. Hey, if not me, somebody would have pointed it out.
Medic and Corpsmen were interchangeable among the branches at the time.
