I'm not sure if anyone has seen these...but I came across this article on the forums over at YoJoe.com. It seems that Marauder Gun Runners, the makers of the awesome weapons and accessories for 1:18 scale figures such as G.I.Joe and Marvel Universe...has teamed up with Boss Fight Studios and is now in game of producing their own FULLY CUSTOMIZABLE military action figures, and after visiting their Kickstarter page...MAN do these things look AMAZING. These things will definitely challenge Hasbro in the near future if they are able to deliver on all cylinders!

Here's a link to the story over at YoJoe.com, which also has a link to their Marauders' Kickstarter page, which shows off a lot more pics of what they're shooting for with this new toy line. G.I. Joe fans who have been disappointed by Hasbro's treatment of the line, and 1:18 scale fans...show your support! These things look awesome!

One big question I have.... are they actual 3.75" and 1/18 scale?
Most Joe's and MU are more like 4.5" and closer to 1/15 scale.....

If they are the first they would be VERY short like vintage Star Wars. Could be awkward to army a team of commando jockeys.....

I think Hasbro will end up owning them... I'm pretty sure Hasbro probably has intellectual property rights on most styles of articulation and could make a legal argument that these infringe on GI joe likeness.
