Hey, everyone. Wayne from Palladium here.
As many of you are aware, I spent some of last week at the GAMA Trade Show in Las Vegas, chatting with retailers and distributors about Robotech® RPG Tactics™ as well as our other game lines. I took many of the prototype game pieces we had, including a few that we hadn't yet shown pics of. Once the show began, and a number of retailers and members of the press starting snapping photos, I thought, “Well, there go my next few planned Kickstarter Updates.” Even when Ninja John received a package the next day containing four new prototypes, soon enough a few people came by and took some shots of them as well. I’m sure many of you have seen those photos, and although I will show those prototype pieces in more detail over the weeks to come, they won’t have that same special, first look feeling.
For those of you who don’t watch the comments of these Updates, here is a sample of photos and video from the event:

The good news is, there was something else at that show that nobody got to see. Romeo from Battle Foam brought the prototype Robotech® RPG Tactics™ carrying bag for me to examine and approve! Check it out.
I know some of the tray photos are blurry (sorry, I didn't realize it until later), but you may notice there are 96 total spaces. That’s exactly the number of pieces that come in Battle Cry, and the tray layouts are designed to hold every piece in the Battle Cry set, as promised. Let me tell you, it was tough finding room for them all, but as long as you don’t go crazy with some of your poses, they should all fit just fine. And of course, you can always purchase pluck foam or custom trays from Battle Foam to suit your specific needs down the line.
Questions Received, Answers Coming
In the past few days, a number of questions have been submitted to us about a few aspects of manufacturing, where things stand, how we’ll proceed in the future, etc. I just wanted to let you know that we have received them, and we’ll answer them as best we can in the next week. I need to confer with the Ninja Division folks for some of the details, but we’ll get back to you as soon as we can.
See you next week.
