Atomic Robo's the only print book that I EVER pick up anymore. Still great, love every moment. Being a toy nerd makes desperately want a gi-joe sized Robo to mix in among my joes so he can lead his very own action science team. (and team up with my tiny hellboy)

I got the copy from Midtown Comics in record time, and gave it to my wife today, she LOVED it, was utterly wowed by the writing and the art, particularly how expressive Robo can be, considering he...um... has a great poker face. She said that "Ok, if they said that they didn't write volume seven's story until now, and that the Ghost of Station X was just in preparation of it, volume seven is going to be AWESOME." I don't know how she manages to talk in all caps, but she does it sometimes. (By the way, I also enjoyed the HELL out of the book, and it just made me want not only my very own Robo action figure but also a Jenkins action figure.) Hey, you think maybe we could get a kickstarter going for real articulated Robo action figures?

This is an amazing Kickstarter, I am really looking forward to this, it's amazing, YOU'RE amazing. I'm gushing. Any insights on the campaign from the other side? Is this what you guys were expecting or are you just totally floored by the outpouring of support for Robo (and Dr. Dino?)

Verry nice indeed, we're very pleased with our copy and all the goodies

Hyperactive posted:Diamond is almost entirely why we're doing this. They've been the biggest hurdle for getting our book to people who want it, much less those who haven't discovered it yet. We spent seven years fighting the system and getting nowhere, so now we're out. What can we do to ensure that Atomic Robo continues for a long time? (I mean, aside from buying the books when they're collected, which is still awesome btw.)

Hyperactive posted:Two weeks ago. Or one week ago. Depends on your shop because *~Diamond~* This is entirely true. I thought about getting it from Midtown, but on second thought I called my local shop and they had Three copies left in stock! By the time I got there to pick up my copy, the others were sold, like hotcakes or something like that. I feel like I've mentioned this before, but it is a crying shame that there are no Atomic Robo Action Figures. This should be rectified, perhaps through a crowd funded source?

Lurdiak posted:I won't buy any Robo action figures unless there's so many points of articulation that it looks like it was shattered int 100 pieces and poorly glued back together. Counterpoint: This one just works better than the older ones you posted, the articulation isn't as obtrusive, but it poses really well.

Hyperactive posted:Fun Fact: I cannot wait for that. The version that actually showed up in the comic really worked for me as a 'this is a prototype and we really don't know how to make a standing humanoid/walking humanoid version so let's just make it up as we go along.'

Covok posted:I'm interested in buying the TESLADYNE FIELD GUIDE 2013, but have been back and forth on the idea. For those who have it, if you don't mind me asking, how cool is it? Is it a "must-have" for an Atomic Robo fan, so to speak? If you don't have it, you're not a real fan, IMO.

I'd like to point out how really cool Robo's new hands are, they look like they'd give him a lot more human-like range of motion, although I'm not sure how good they'd be at being usable fists. Good thing we're about to find out!

Funny thing; it would have been faster for us to go pick up the books in person than to get them delivered! Oh well, next time we'll save you guys the shipping costs

Yippee! Our box from Tesladyne arrived today, and whilst the box was beat all to poo poo, it did its job and protected the books! Thanks guys, great work, they look (and smell,) fantastic!

Hyperactive posted:New comiXology collections will go online to coincide with new hardcover editions. Ring of Fire is kinda goofy since there current Kickstarter is sorta delaying that, but we're in the final stages of that. And since future campaigns will be much simpler, there shouldn't be a gap this bad between IDW's TPB release and our hardcover/digital releases. Yeah, we still have it waiting for breakdown in the recycling, I'll pm it to you?
