more pics!
So I was most looking forward to the Exo Suit. While super, super cool and I’m still discovering how to play with it, the dog has become the clear favorite in the house. First, the Unicorn Addict “borrowed” it for two days. Found her in the tub with this setup. So I need to order some replacements for myself. Also, this is the reason I’m hiding in the bedroom before she takes it back.

If there is a pose a dog can do, these puppers can do them. I intentionally mimicked my real dogs for an hour. All the gear is great but won’t get more use than these pics. But she did try all of it on the dog and approved before taking it off.

Like I said the Exo Suit is great....but, it isn’t intuitive and the firmer platstic makes setting everything up, not a hassle, but, well, my thumb is sore. Getting everything lined up and fit takes some work but is Oh. So. Worth. It. I did snap the view finder off the antenea head piece but that was my own fault as I was adjusting the head and my fingers slipped wrenching the piece 180 degress. Little drill hole and a dab of glue and you can’t tell. Oh and the wings for the jetpack on the dog thanks to the kid have a hinge and a swivel connection to the backpack. So lots of flight possibilities.

This was just me messing around with the accessories. Like I said, once a figure is setup in it, you can’t stop messing with it. And you gind out the control handles pop out and that the foot peg is on an internal hinge joint.

So the Agent figures, both male and female are everything you hoped for and more. New hip ball is more of a ridged ball peg now making popping the legs on and off to switch jacketed it unjacketed torso a snap.

I’m still messing with everything, but I couldn’t be happier with this purchase. They nailed it and got the kid excited. Well done.

Be sure to post pics of your favorite geared up pics when you all get your stuff. I think we could all take cues to improve the possibilities for everyone.

hmmm can you add a regular Timber head to the MTF version?
Wolves have smaller ears than German Shepherds.

Man, Marauder needs to get the new products up on their website. I need more dogs.

I remember them saying before, that with the upcoming WWII figures, there are some items that would only be available during the Kickstarter. I sure hope that's not too many of the items.

KS exclusive stuff is always repaints of an item that will end up in the Store in some manner. At worst, you'll have to customize your customizable figure, lol.

I just wanted to throw a shout out to Marauder for putting out such a great product and having even greater customer service. I felt bad after seeing my brother's haul that I couldn't jump in on the original Marauder Task Force Kickstarter. I'm so glad I didn't miss out on this one. These figures have been so much fun to customize, and the accessories are fantastic. Marauder has earned another loyal customer. :like:

Their customer service really is amazing. All of those hundreds of tiny pieces, and how many times have they ever messed up an order? For me, out of dozens of orders, I've maybe gotten one incorrect piece (which they replaced immediately, along with some extra goodies). That's just astounding. And their products just keep getting better and better. Those suited figures and the contract-ops guys are just beautiful.

So, is there any chance that the exosuits work with vintage o-ring Joes?

Not wihtout modifications. Different backpeg, foot peg, and everything is designed for the height and limb sizes of modern figures. You could make it work, but it will take some cutomizing and trial and error to make it right.

If one wanted to make a perma-Exo RAH figure it'd be fairly easy to simply remove the connectors between the armor pieces and glue them directly to a RAH fig. It's the connectors that really force them to fit 25A-format figs, imho.
