Character History
"I have a confession to make....I took a big gamble on this campaign. So much so that I actually already started the tooling process for the Desert Rat. I sold off a bunch of my toy collection to pay for the expense and to give this campaign a leg up in the production cycle. My hope was all of you would rise to the occasion and cover my bet, and it paid off! The factory sent me this tooling model pic today (you can see the original sculpt on the left) so I'm happy to announce we are already on our way.
I'm awaiting the production timeline but my hope is the Desert Rat will ship within the first few months of the club. If I had waited until this campaign ended, the soonest we'd see him would be summer.
Also- here's a close up of the Mauser 8mm gun he comes with. I've always been obsessed with Mausers since the Rocketeer, so it's cool to finally be able to have one with a stock in this scale. Also loved using the Red9 in Resident Evil 4!"[1]
