I could definitely video tape it, but I'm visually less excitable as my typing may let on. 
I might consider it though, it'd be a laugh I guess but to those who've not seen my face before, you might want to have a crucifix handy!

at long last they are on their way. I have always wanted some skeleton action figures, these will be my first. Skeletons also are useful as fodder for most fantasy settings
You're a lucky bloody devil dude, I've not got a notice yet but I've waited this long - what's a little longer eh? 
Please do post some photos in the thread of when your package arrives, I'm looking forward to the thoughts of others on these things just as much as receiving my own figure.
...
So George & Ayleen have posted Update No. 30 to the Skeleton Warriors Kickstarter page, entitled: "It's Baron Dark Day!". 
It has been 9 months & 13 days since the "Skeleton Warriors: Glyos Compatible - Action Figures" Kickstarter Project concluded as being successfully funded, having been initially aimed for a December 2014 Release/Shipping date.
That was initially pushed back to January 2015 as a result of further design refinements to Baron Dark & the Titan Skeleton figure's shoulder regions. 
Then the shipment was delayed to late February/early March because of Factory schedules & holidays (The shipment reaching its transitory midway point in the Pacific Ocean circa 24th of February).
...and then it was once more delayed to mid/late March as a result of the United States' West Coast - Docking Unions strikes!
It has finally come to April 4th 2015 that the entire Kickstarter shipment has progressed through the backlog at said docks and passed through customs to arrive at October Toys HQ!
You can see why I think there is a degree of relief behind this joyous smile of George Gaspar as he's packing Pledge Rewards.
The team at October Toys are extremely elated to let everyone know that they are presently in the process of organising and dispatching their "...fabulous Kickstarter supporters" pledge rewards and are aiming to have most if not everyone's packages shipped out by the end of this week!
They go on to say:
There are no words to express how incredible it has been to work on this project with the fantastic team at Goddard Film Group (Roger Lay Jr. & Eric Carnagey), the mad geniuses at Onell Design (Matt Doughty & Marc Beaudette), and all of our friends, family, and supporters.
From the bottom of our heartstones - thank you!
We sincerely hope you enjoy these new Baron Dark and the Titan Skeleton figures as much as we do!
George then tweeted, just on 12 hours ago , this photo:
Before ending Update No. 30, we're reminded that...
"This Is Only The Beginning!"
"Stay tuned in the coming weeks for the revealing of just who will be the next entrant into the 20th Anniversary: (Glyos Compatible) Skeleton Warriors toyline - You never know what might be lurking in the Shadows..."
Well, I'm bloody excited to be very soon receiving my Pledge Reward and you can damn expect that I'll be reviewing & photographing every one of the following:
- Baron Dark
- Baron Dark: "Lightstar Crystal Blue" Kickstarter Exclusive Variant
- Titan Skeleton
- Titan Skeleton: "Glow in The Dark" Variant
- Titan Skeleton: "Lightstar Crystal Blue" Kickstarter Exclusive Variant
- Traveller Skeleden: "Luminaire Edition" Kickstarter Exclusive Variant
...and I thoroughly implore any and all reading this to please chime in with your thoughts and photos in the thread too, let's see what shenanigans a bunch of toy skeletons can get up to!
Also as a reminder, as the timing seems rather poignant , if you weren't able to to get in on the initial Kickstarter for any of what I've listed above, remember that (Excluding the Exclusive variants) you can preorder the Regular Baron Dark figure RIGHT NOW via Big Bad Toy Store for $29.99(USD) + Shipping:
*Prototype Figure & Packaging Shown; Final Product Varies.
Righto, that's it from me for now but watch this space.
In the coming weeks there's going to be plenty of photos & news coming, some reviews and any & all details regarding the future availability of this first batch of modern Skeleton Warriors figures - "Who?", "When?" & "How Much?" plus much more!
...for: "These are the continuing tales of the Skeleton Warriors!"
