Every time this Spawn Kickstarter get a new stretch goal this Kickstarter goes to the front of the site. This is a good toy news site, but why so much attention to this Kickstarter, it funded in 12 minutes. It doesn't need all this attention. Sectaurs by Zica didn't get this kind of coverage either

Basically what was said above - it's a larger company, established brand, bringing back a popular character that's been on time out for a bit, in a way that hasn't been done by this company, or, by many larger ones in industry.

And, as with all news we cover here, it's something one of us is personally into. We give more attention to brands and characters we actually dig. Joe digs Horror, I dig DBZ, Super Heroes, Mechs, DESTRO does Marvel Legends style stuff, etc. And I am into Spawn personally.

We aren't pure journalists, we aren't following Associated Press standards or anything. Just some dorks running a fan site.
