>This Friday, September 8th at 3pm eastern standard time, a new pre-order comes to Store Horsemen, but this time we're doing things a little differently. We've been trying to find the right timing and method to re-launch the Power Lords four inch scaled action figure line with new levels of articulation and detail, and if you're willing to go on this little journey with us, we think the time is NOW!
>This pre-order will be very similar to all of our previous pre-orders, with one significant difference. We're going to use something similar to the "crowd funding" method of pre-ordering that's been successful for us in the past through Kickstarter, and we'll have a certain number of orders per character that we'll need to hit in order to make this work. If we don't meet our goal in the time that we have the pre-order running, all of the pre-orders will be cancelled, and none of your payments will be processed. We'd then just have to step back and try to figure out another alternative strategy in order to get Power Lords action figures into your hands.
>One of the things that's happened in recent weeks is that the factory has come back to us with revised prices for tooling and production, and we were shocked to find that they're roughly double what we were quoted to begin with. We're still working things out with the factory to see what can be done to bring those prices down to a more reasonable level, so we probably won't be posting the prices of the figures until the sale actually launches on Friday afternoon. Multiple factors figure in to decide what we need to charge per figure, and the production and tooling charges are the largest portion of that. That factor more than anything else will decide what the final prices for the Power Lords action figures will need to be, but you can be sure that we'll do everything within our power to keep those prices as low as possible, no matter what the final outcome from our current factory negotiations.
