I do take some consolation, though, from the meteoric rise of 1/18th-scale Kickstarters, like Marauder Task Force, Vitruvian H.A.C.K.S., Eagle Force, Captain Action, Hell Screamerz and the like, most of which far surpass Hasbro's recent attempts in the scale. I'm particularly looking forward to the new Sectaurs and Power Lords.

Have you checked out the Zombie Lab 1:18 Kickstarter that's currently up? It's already funded and unlocking stretch goals. https://www.kickstarter.com/projects...re/description
