Callsign Longbow Update – March 2024

The Skeletron team wasn’t the only crew hopping around on Easter Sunday! The fine folks over at Grindstone Toys also shared an update. Read on for their March 2024 breakdown:

Hello CALLSIGN: LONGBOW® Backers!

March 2024 is drawing to a close so we’re back with our monthly check-in. We’d like to wish you all a happy and joyful Easter Sunday!

Ghost Revision

The factory sent us some images of tool revisions that we requested.  We asked the factory to modify the tooling to make the base plastic a little glossier more like on a vintage figure. They did a great job and we think this will give the figure an even more accurate retro feel!

New updated, glossier (right side) “Ghost” mold comparison.

Come see us this Summer!

The weekend of Jun 21st-23rd, 2024 GRINDSTONE TOYS will be at both JoeFest Toy and Comic Convention in Augusta, GA, and the DFW GI Joe and Action Figure Show in Grapevine, TX.  If you are in the area for either of these shows, please swing by the booth and say hello!

I love these kinds of updates, as I love being given the chance to peek behind the curtains to see how the sausage is made. I can’t wait until these are in hand!
