Heads up, CS:Longbow backers! The team at Grindstone Toys have shared a Sit-Rep for June 2023. Those details can be viewed below. Check it out –

Hello CALLSIGN: LONGBOW™ Backers!

June is drawing to a close and we’ve covered a LOT of miles this month. Thank you to everyone that came out to see us at JoeFest, the DFW G.I. Joe and Action Figure Show, and everyone following along online. 

We shared some new paint master figures at these shows painted by the very talented Mikey Kukovich of (JMK Designs). The display box we use at the show has really bright lights that make the figures look great in person, but unfortunately, the lights make getting good pictures difficult. So please also enjoy this in-progress shot from Mikey’s workbench that gives you a much better idea of the details on these prototypes.

Note: The elbow rivet alignment on these figures is incorrect, and the finished figures will have elbow rivets that match vintage figures. 

Art Update

This month we are featuring the invisible infiltrator 霞-死神 AKA “GHOST”! As with all CALLSIGN: LONGBOW™  figures, this art is done by legendary illustrator & painter Douglas Hart (G.I. Joe, Air Raiders, Street Fighter). “GHOST” is also our first offering of a deluxe figure with even more gear to dominate the battlefield. 

(DIS)Assembly Required

We are happy to announce that the CALLSIGN: LONGBOW™ team will once again be in attendance at ASSEMBLY REQUIRED 2023 presented by Code Name: Iowa. November 3rd & 4th in Des Moines, Iowa. This is a fun and intimate show that grows stronger every year. If you’re planning to come to the show, please drop by the LONGBOW™ booth and say hello!

Thank you again to all of our backers for making this project a reality!
