Exciting news for a Friday morning today! Boss Fight Studios has sent a Vitruvian HACKS update, and I think it’s the update many of us have been waiting for. We have confirmation that Kickstarter orders of Vitruvian HACKS should be shipping to backers in February!
Please check out the update below, and if you didn’t get in on the Kickstarter, as of Monday, December 7th, you’ll be able to pre-order Wave 1 through the Boss Fight webstore! Great news.
I’m beyond excited that these are moving forward. I’m ready!
Hi Boss-Fighters!
In this update, we’re going to talk about Kickstarter timelines, pre-orders and shipping!
The timeline we have from our factory right now – barring any delays – has the entire production run arriving by early February. Our current goal is to have all Kickstarter orders shipped in February. We’ll be receiving the production run in two parts, the first part in late January. We will be shipping it to backers in two shipments as well, so you can get your toys as early as possible!
We’ll be opening up limited pre-orders for all waves of Series 1 Carded figures, Skeletons, Pre-Curse Medusa, Tartarus Guard, Blanks and Accessory packs on 12:01 EST, Monday December 7th! If you missed out on the Kickstarter and want to be among the first to receive your V-HACKS figures, don’t delay! If you’re already a KS backer, and you want to buy additional items in the pre-order, that’s awesome, but please be aware that we cannot combine shipping on KS items and pre-order items. Pre-Orders will be shipping mid-March to give us time to be sure all of the Kickstarter backers have received all of their items.
Kickstarter backers, we’ve still got a surprise in store for you! Each KS backer above the $30 level (if you got one or more figures) will receive a surprise free figure to thank you for your patience! We’re so grateful for our backers that you’ll be getting a new figure that hasn’t been seen anywhere yet!
Please note, at this point all of the money from the Kickstarter has been used to pay our vendors for production, this means that we are unable to offer any Kickstarter refunds.
Thanks for all of your support!

An exciting announcement from the minds behind several of the G.I. Joe Kindle Worlds novels!
For Immediate Release
GI JOE KINDLE WORLDS AUTHORS UNITE FOR MULTI-PART EPIC
The four best-selling authors who recently competed in the GI Joe Hasbro Kindle Worlds Fan Vote contest, Jim Beard, Justin Bell, Bill Nedrow, and Troy Osgood, are joining forces to publish a four-part GI Joe story to launch this January on Amazon’s Kindle Worlds platform.
GI JOE: LEGACY will spotlight the four GI Joe characters from the contest in a sprawling, action-fueled saga that spans more than four decades, and will be published once a month for four months. Each author’s short story may be read on its own, but also as “chapters” of the larger adventure. In addition, Beard, Bell, Nedrow, and Osgood will write the stories in “round robin” fashion, each building off the previous installment.
The Kindle Worlds publication schedule will be:
GI JOE: LEGACY, PART 1 by Jim Beard (Adventure Team Marcus) – January 1st, 2016
GI JOE: LEGACY, PART 2 by Bill Nedrow (Stiletto) – February 1st, 2016
GI JOE: LEGACY, PART 3 by Justin Bell (Whisper) – March 1st, 2016
GI JOE: LEGACY, PART 4 by Troy Osgood (Blackjack) – April 1st, 2016
Please visit the Tales of GI Joe Facebook page for updates, as well as the author’s Amazon pages:
I couldn’t be more excited to be a part of this exciting upcoming event! I think it’ll be a lot of fun for readers, and I’m sure it’ll be a ton of fun for us authors, too.
Stay tuned, it’s coming fast!
