The Callsign: Longbow team has sent out their June 2024 update, including details from the team regarding their convention trips! Check out the scoop below –
Hello CALLSIGN: LONGBOW® Backers!
Both GRINDSTONE teams have returned home from our split-show schedule. We want to thank everyone who came to the shows and visited with us. Getting to hang out with all of you makes these shows special.
Troy’s Report from Joefest
This year’s show was really fantastic! We have so many people to thank for the great experience. Thank you to Ed Schumacher and his team for putting everything together and making it all possible.
Thank you to our friends at Skeletron (Ben, Mark, Bob, Cory, Gary, and Sean) and Team Marauder (John, Michael, Matt, Paul, Miles, and Ed). You all make this show exciting and it was great hanging out.
Thank you to Doug Hart for making the trip to Augusta and meeting with everyone. Thank you to Carson (3DJoes/Operation: Recall) and his team for all the work they put in on our panel. And thanks to the Talking Joe podcast, you can watch a recording of the panel here:
Also a special thank you to all our friends that we got to hang out with. Ragin Spoon, the Delta-17 team, the Joe Declassified team, the What’s on Joe Mind team, Chicken Fried Toys, our new friends at Creative Beast Studios, Karl Hansen, Patrick Thomas Parnell (Riot Press), Grindhouse Toys, Geroge Greenoe, Brian Hickey, and probably a thousand other people we’ve forgotten to mention (sorry, there are so many people we like to hang out with!). Spending time with everyone is the best part of these shows and where the real memories are made.
And a very special thanks to my family for helping with the booth and hauling everything to August.
John’s Report from the DFW Joe Show
What a trip! Mikey and John headed down to the DFW GI Joe and Action Figure Show in Grapevine, TX for a great show! A very special thanks to Cotswold Collectibles and Greg Brown for hosting! We hosted Kirk Bozigan for the show, his support for our line has been an inspiration! The Build-a-vehicle with Hasbro Legends Workshop was amazing.
Thank you to Dave Kunitz, Frank Coroneos, and Greg Berndston for sharing their knowledge and expertise with us! That workshop experience was rounded off with the help of George Vega Art! As always, I have to shout out to Skeletron for their continuing support!
MAKE SURE YOUR ADDRESS IS UP-TO-DATE IN THE BACKERKIT!
As we shared at the shows, we expect to have GHOST stateside in the next few months and will be shipping these figures as an “Advance Deployment”. That means it’s very important that your shipping address is correct in BackerKit so they go to the right place. You can sign into BackerKit here:
You still have time to add GHOST to your order, if you have not already. We don’t want anyone to miss out on the Advanced Deployment. Please feel free to contact BackerKit support or us directly if you have any issues.
We’ll be back with more news to share next month on the other figures!
Thank you again to all our backers for making this project a reality!
-GRINDSTONE TOYS!
I’m so excited to have these in hand! What say you?
