We are just over halfway through the Marauder “Valkyries” Kickstarter campaign, and sitting at almost $68,000. So far, all that we’ve seen of the Valkyrie figures has been some great Boss Fight Studio input drawings, but that all changed tonight.
For the first time, Marauder has revealed 3D Digital Sculpts of three of the upcoming Valkyries and they’re looking pretty sharp!
Hop on over to the Kickstarter page, and check out some of the images below. As these stretch goals get wrapped up, the higher pledges become a whole lot more valuable.
Keep watching the campaign, there are only 18 days left, and they’ll be done before you know it.

I think most of us can agree that by far the best part about the mobile card battle game G.I. Joe: Battleground was the artwork, right?
Well, if you enjoyed that part of the game like I did, you’re going to want to head on over to Jarreau Wimberly’s Instagram page, as he’s revealing his artwork for the game at gorgeous high resolution. Some of these pieces are just spectacular.
There are over 50 of them already, and he’s revealing more every day!
Check out his Instagram Page here and revel in the beauty of your favorite characters in his awesome artistic style.
Thanks to Twitziller for the heads up as always.

It makes for a surprisingly poignant next step in the Marvel G.I. Joe history where we’re looking towards the future, but still paying fond remembrance to the past. All while another silent, disfigured guy in a Snake Eyes uniform is milling around. Kinda odd, but in a way, it fits that “death of a major comic character” template we’ve grown so used to over the past several years.
