I forgot how close this was to ending and have been on the fence with buying one since the Kickstarter went up due to having the Kellerman book and not really buying any more vintage SW really but thought I'd go for it as it's so nice looking and it would be great to have one final vintage book on this fantastic vintage toy line!

Backed and best of luck with getting it over the finishing line guys.

To hell with it! I've backed it and can't wait to receive it. Looks phenomenal, really hope you hit your target.

Treat yourself, it's only money!

I've backed it too, although its not looking promising that they're going to reach the target. :?

I was thinking the same thing with only a few days to go but at least we can say we tried if it doesn't happen.

I really hope they hit the target. Now that I've backed it I'm really looking forward to getting it. Wonder if theres a contingency plan, they have the bulk of the money but can't see people shelling out this near to Christmas.

Fingers crossed.

Hello All,

We just wanted to make people aware of our new upcoming Kickstarter campaign which should launch 5th November.

We have just had approval for the campaign and you can visit the KICKSTARTER preview at this link:

Well that should drop the price of the Kellerman book :D

Well done for getting the book across the line and looking forward to seeing it in all of it's glory.

Really glad it made it, just in the nick of time a well! Wasn't looking likely a few weeks ago. I might try and pick up a copy when it's printed.
 
Thanks to everyone here who has supported us. We are excited now to concentrate on finishing the book and getting it sent out to all those who backed. Thank you, thank you, thanks you! :D

It might be worth contacting them now if you do want one as they have said that others are looking at buying more books and before they confirm this is possible they want to look at print numbers.

I have the kellerman book which i bought from amazon back in the day for around £30.00. I was quite surprised when i checked the price on completed items on ebay! :o

I backed another project for a Modern Star Wars collecting guide which has run into numerous delays including covid.

One of their biggest oversights was the fact that the proofs they signed off wern't calibrated for actual printing press.

On their first run the printed samples looked nothing like the proofs as the colours had shifted on many of the images. This ment they had to work through thousands of images, retouching them to match what they had signed off.

I think it was 18 months since it was successfully funded.

Congrats on getting over the project over the line, really looking forward to receiving the book. :)
