Hello CALLSIGN: LONGBOW® Backers!

Fall is here, and we’re back to update you on progress for the month of September.

Production Update

The factory team provided us with a video update on the sculpt revisions they have been working on. They’ve made the necessary adjustments at the model shop to Lancer and Kransy-Ninja to fully achieve the desired range of motion and are moving forward in the process.

Progress on the VOLK, UPTOWN, GRU SPETSNAZ, and OUTLAW is ongoing. These figures also required some additional revision at the model shop.

Given the rate of progress, we no longer expect these figures to ship before the end of the year. We’re sorry to report that we are not further along in the process, and please know that we are pushing to complete these figures as soon as possible, and will continue to share all progress as it occurs. We recognize that this project is taking significantly longer than originally estimated, and we thank you for your continued patience!

Upcoming Shows

Once again, the LONGBOW® team will be in attendance at the 14th Annual ASSEMBLY REQUIRED presented by Code Name: Iowa. Please join us on November 14th and 15th in Des Moines at the HyVee Hall!

Thank you again for making this project a reality!
